We no longer need full time help, so unfortunately are parting ways with our wonderful nanny, Hermi. She has worked with us for 3 months, but has quickly made an impression and easily got a handle on our 9 month old\’s routine and needs. She is so sweet and loving with our baby, she sings and dances, is energetic, engaging, cautious, and protective while out and about – you will never have to worry about your baby\’s safety while in her care. Our baby absolutely lights up when she arrives for the day and tries to follow her out the door when she leaves. I always hear them laughing and playing in the other room and it\’s been so sweet to see their bond grow, even in this short amount of time that she has worked with us. Hermi is great with babies, caring, and eager to please, and she always leaves our home neater than when she found it. She has handled everything from taking our daughter to classes and playdates, coaching me through starting solids, shopping for and making our daughter\’s food, doing our daughter\’s laundry, and alerting me to things that need attention. I would love to find her a great family to work with. She is based in Jersey City but commutes to us in Manhattan, so she is open to a variety of locations. Please reach out to me if you have any questions, or feel free to get in touch with her directly.
Pema is an incredible asset to any family. She radiates warmth with a bright smile and calm demeanor that immediately resonated with our daughter. Pema is fun, imaginative, highly communicative and organized and she manages to balance soft kindness with firmness and structure. Pema and our daughter are always having fun together, constantly playing, giggling and truly enjoying one another\’s company. We were particularly impressed with Pema\’s proactivity in organizing our daughter\’s schedule, arranging play dates, trips to art galleries or museums, she has a finger on the pulse of new and interesting spaces for kids and is always befriending other nannies within our community and making new connections. Pema is an exceptional communicator, she sends daily picture updates of what they\’ve been up to. Our daughter arrives home each evening in a wonderful mood. Pema is also a safe and confident driver, which we found very helpful in taking the children to various activities, and school pick up. Pema is incredibly trustworthy and as a mother herself she\’s sensitive, loving and deeply adores children. Pema came highly recommended through friends of ours and has been a joy to work with for the past 12 months, sadly with Kindergarten beginning in the fall, we have to now say goodbye. Pema has been an undeniable asset to our family and we know she will be to yours. We feel strongly about helping her find another wonderful, loving family and are happy to chat anytime to answer any additional questions. She\’s looking for a full time role to commence immediately.
I am pleased to write this letter in strong support of Dianne Gopee for a nanny position. What began as a chance encounter at a playground grew into our most valued working relationship for our family. Starting out with our two young children, Dianne had to multitask and manage difficult situations ranging from child sickness to varying school schedules, all which she handled with skill and grace.
As our children got older, Dianne’s role evolved and developed into what could be described as a House Manager. The kids’ schedules became more complicated with sports, school and tutoring and Dianne took on more responsibility with food shopping, cooking and cleaning and continued to demonstrate immense reliability and strong work ethic.
I have witnessed firsthand Dianne’s dedication and professionalism. Others have too, frequently other families would approach her to work for them and lamented the fact that they could not find someone who measured up to Dianne’s caring, kindness and enthusiasm.
Dianne has consistently demonstrated quick problem-solving and attention to detail. Regardless of the situation her thoughtfulness and personable nature puts everyone around her at ease. I have no doubt that Dianne will contribute greatly to any family, please don’t hesitate to contact me if you need anything further.
Tshering is a gem of a nanny – the kind parents come up to you at the playground to tell you how great she is! We wanted to find a nanny that was not only reliable and trustworthy, but also incredibly playful, engaging, resourceful, intelligent, and kind – and we found all that and more in Tshering. She’s joyful and engaging with children, engaging them constantly throughout the day with fun chatter and conversations, silly games, made up activities from every day items, and adventures out of the house to the playground or classes. She’s empathetic and kind with babies and toddlers especially, helping them through frustrations, getting them to play safely and thoughtfully with other kids, and adjusting her approach based on their needs. She’s also so educational with them, teaching our kids letters and numbers in multiple languages much earlier than I thought possible! She’s a true parenting partner, endlessly helpful and thoughtful in supporting our family’s needs (from tidying to meal prep to kid organization to activities) but most notably in truly sharing in love for the children to nurture them and help them grow.
We’ve worked with Tshering for 4.5 years full-time and we’d love for her to find a wonderful new family. She’s available 3 days/week (she’s working with a former family 2 days/week but is flexible on what days), ideally hours 8-4 or 9-5 in Manhattan and Queens. We couldn’t recommend her more!
Lorna is a wonderful, caring, responsible nanny who worked with us for 12 years — since my youngest was 3 months old. Lorna is the rare person who loves her job, and she has been great with babies, toddlers, and each age and stage of my kids’ lives. She connects with children and gives them comfort and care but does not spoil them. Further, I trust Lorna completely, so working with her gives me a true sense of security. Her next family is a lucky family!
I am pleased to offer a reference for my current professional nanny Mel with over 24 years of hands-on experience caring for children ranging in age from as young as six weeks old through the early teen years.
As a mother to adult children of her own, she understands deeply the trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s care—and she honors that responsibility with her full commitment, heart, and professionalism.
Throughout her career, she has nurtured children in every stage of development, creating loving, structured environments that promote emotional well-being, independence, and growth. She takes pride in not only providing attentive, compassionate care, but also being a positive influence and an active educator in their daily lives.
Mel was with us for a few years and during that time was an exceptional caregiver and a great addition to our family. She has extensive experience and knowledge working with various age group and assisted us during major transitions and milestones such as introducing solids, potty training, sleep regression and the famous stages of grumpy two’s.
In every role, she assumed full responsibility for the children in her care.
This included prepping and preparing their meals with attention to any dietary needs. Managing and doing their laundry. Organizing their schedules, activities, and transportation. Light housekeeping to maintain a clean, safe environment… sometimes even cooking for the entire family and washing clothes that have piled. Supporting learning through play, reading, and age-appropriate educational activities.
Mo enters our home every morning with a bright energy and kindness but also bringing a calm presence and a genuine love, being a supportive extension of us
When first speaking with the past families she worked with, they would describe her as dependable, nurturing, proactive, and grounded and I can attest to all of it.
If you are looking for an experienced and deeply loving nanny who takes initiative and offers long-term consistency and support, then you’re looking for MO and I’d be happy to connect you!
We are sadly parting ways with our incredible nanny, Anjali. Due to changes in our family’s needs, we are no longer able to keep her on, but we are beyond grateful for her care and love she has provided for my child. She joined our family when our daughter was just one month old, and she quickly became an integral part of our family. As our little one grew, Anjali was right there, celebrating every developmental milestone with us- from tummy time, first smile, crawling, walking, and so much more. She is trustworthy, respectful, and professional. We are so sad to see her go, and hope she finds a new family who will love and appreciate her as much as we do.
Our wonderful former nanny, Yvonne Brissett, is looking for her next long-term family. Yvonne was a true partner to my husband and me in raising our child. She made it possible for us to balance demanding careers with parenting—giving us total peace of mind that our little one was safe, happy, and thriving.
From day one, Yvonne made our child her top priority. She became deeply attuned to their needs and encouraged independence, curiosity, and learning. She celebrated milestones, engaged in real (not baby talk) conversations, and created a joyful, loving environment.
Beyond her exceptional care, Yvonne was a joy to have in our home. She’s energetic, funny, and professional. She traveled with us frequently—both with our child and when we needed care while traveling solo.
A few additional highlights:
20+ years of experience as a career nanny, with a background in hospitality—she’s warm, polished, and communicative
Extremely reliable and punctual—critical for us with our long and often unpredictable work hours
Flexible and accommodating—always willing to stay late or adjust plans on short notice
Goes above and beyond on household tasks—handled all child-related chores and more (dishes, tidying, grocery runs, tracking supplies like diapers and wipes)
Development-focused—suggested toys and activities to support learning, read regularly with our child, and encouraged language development from an early stage
An excellent communicator with family and community—kept grandparents updated with photos and FaceTimes, and built friendly relationships with others in our daily life like our housekeeper and doormen
Yvonne is hoping to find a loving, long-term family. Please feel free to reach out to her directly—or I’m happy to answer any questions or chat further about our experience.
