I am writing to highly recommend Hazel as a nanny. She has been with our family for the past year and has been caring for our daughter since she was just 3 months old. In that time, we have come to rely on her as a trusted member of our family and a dedicated and loving caregiver for our daughter. Unfortunately, we will be moving out of NYC soon, so we will no longer require Hazel’s services. Hazel has a natural ability to connect with children (especially babies) and create a warm and nurturing environment for them. She is patient, kind, and always goes above and beyond to make sure that our daughter is safe, happy, and well-cared for. One of the things that impressed us most about Hazel is her ability to adapt and be flexible to our ever-changing schedule. She is always willing to work around our schedule, including staying late or arriving early to provide an extra set of hands when my husband or I am traveling for work. She is always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that our daughter is well taken care of. Hazel's ability to connect with our child is truly remarkable, and she has been instrumental in helping her develop and grow in her first year. Hazel has helped her to reach her milestones, and she has also been a great support to me as a first-time parent and adjusting to being a working mother. We will all miss so many things about her! Overall, I cannot recommend Hazel highly enough as a nanny. She is a truly exceptional individual, and I have no doubt that she will be an asset to any family that is lucky enough to have her care for their children.

She is very caring, patient, reliable, responsible, kind, warm and punctual, among many other great qualities. Mary worked well with our daughter, performing duties, such as feeding our daughter, placing her on a sleep schedule, and potty training her. Additionally, Mary prepared her meals and tidied up around the spaces that she occupied and did our daughter’s laundry. Mary is knowledgeable about each stage for children, from newborn to school age and engages in activities accordingly. Our daughter had many wonderful days of tummy time, walks, playground visits, play dates, and fun classes that Mary took her to. Mary has excellent references from her other past employees, even written ones, which she can provide. Any family that Mary works with will find her to be a wonderful addition, as she is an excellent nanny. You can contact me with any other questions about Mary.

I love hearing Suzy and our daughter laugh all day together. She has loved, nurtured, and cared for our daughter in so many ways. Helping with sign language, new words, crawling to walking. She takes our daughter to the park, library time and other activities. The house is always clean and tidy. We are moving out of New York and this is the only reason we are parting ways with Suzy. I cannot recommend Suzy highly enough. Our daughter is going to be very upset on our last day. Suzy lives in Manhattan and is available immediately, as we leave Manhattan May 3rd.

Parent Reference

Our very caring and responsible, professional, long-time nanny, June, is available from early May for full-time work for a 3 month-to-long-term commitment. She began working with us in 2017 when our son was a few months old, and has been a part of our family for nearly 6 years. She helped with everything from the typical meal preparation, laundry, arranging playdates, school and activity pick up and drop off, keeping the house tidy, etc. to being very adaptable and flexible to changing duties during the pandemic including providing our son with at-home learning that put him ahead of the game when he returned to preschool. Ever since June started working with our family we frequently heard from other parents that observed June and our son together about how wonderful she was. When we moved full-time across the country for my husband’s new job, June traveled out with us and helped us, and most importantly our son, get settled in the new environment (including teaching him to swim and helping him make friends with new children in the neighborhood and at school). She eased the transition tremendously for our son and got us up and running. Now that our family is fully settled out West, June is heading back to NY and ready to embrace a new family in areas of Manhattan (LES, West Village, Tribeca) proximate to her home in Brooklyn. We are very sad to see June going back to NY but any family would be lucky to have her taking care of their children.

Parent Reference

I am writing to highly recommend Cari for any future nanny position. Cari has been our nanny for the past two years, taking care of our two children, who are now 5 and 3 years old. She has been exceptional in every way, and we will truly miss her. Cari started working for us when our older son was 3 and our younger son was just 1. From day one, she showed great enthusiasm for her job and a deep care for our children. She always made sure that they got to and from school on time, and she prioritized keeping the kids active and helping them make friends. During the warmer months, Cari and the kids basically lived at one of our local parks, making friends and playing. During colder months, she would plan activities for the kids including going to the library, museums, and Central Park Zoo. One of the things that we appreciated most about Cari was her attention to detail and reliability. She took the time to learn about our children's likes and dislikes, their routines, and their personalities. She was patient and caring, and always put their needs first. We felt completely at ease knowing that our children were in her capable hands. She was always highly responsive and took plenty of pictures of our kids which she shared with us throughout the day. As a two-physician household, it was a blessing to know that we could rely on Cari to be reliably on-time and flexible with hours when we needed more support. For instance, on the rare occasions when we had extreme needs such as me being away at a conference and my wife needed to commute, Cari would be able to arrive at 6am to help out. On normal days, her knock on the door would come like clockwork at 7:55 AM ready to dive into the morning fray. In addition to taking care of our children, Cari also helped with light housework and the family's laundry. She always went above and beyond to make sure that our home was clean and organized, which we greatly appreciated. Cari's dedication and hard work have been an asset to our family. Given changes in our care needs, we want to help her find an amazing family to work with going forward. She has become like family to us and we will truly miss her. We highly recommend her, and we are confident that she will be an asset to any family. Please do not hesitate to reach out to discuss further!

Yvonne worked with our family for 7 months; we miss her every day. Our baby (now 17 months old) is a great eater and sleeps through the night thanks to Yvonne. Yvonne is incredibly professional (our pediatrician was quite impressed with her) and will do anything to ensure the well-being of your baby. Just 3 days after giving birth to our son, I had to go back to the hospital with preeclampsia. Not only did Yvonne take amazing care of our baby, she also spent time with my entire family who wanted to come over and see the baby. Her and my mother are still incredibly close. She is perfect for that new mom that wants to be more hands off with her child but also wants to make sure her child is raised correctly and with lots of love. She makes sure your baby is hitting appropriate milestones. Yvonne did daily exercise routines with our baby to build his core strength. After bathing our son, she would give him a nightly Spa Yvonne Massage. Most importantly, she was a delight to have living in our home. We often had dinner and drinks together. My husband and I left her at home with our son multiple times to go on vacation, including a week-long trip to Mexico. We were never worried leaving our son in Yvonne’s care. We would recommend Yvonne to a happy family that does not want their child to feel stress. I knew I was not a natural mom and I wanted someone that would allow me to spend quality time with my baby without the pressures associated with raising a child. Yvonne was there to do all the rest and train us to care for him when she was gone. I genuinely believe that our baby is so happy and sociable because of her love, care and attention. I could not recommend Yvonne more highly. If you are a family that wants a loving, stress-free relationship with your baby, please reach out. She is looking for a happy tidy home filled with love (and good music).

Parent Reference

I can not express how grateful I am for our nanny, Annie, who joined our family when my daughter was just 4 months old. Annie came highly recommended to us and there is no question about her skills and expertise with children. She had previously worked with a family for an extended period in the Upper East Side and we transplanted her to where we live in West Chelsea. She immediately acclimated herself with the "new" neighborhood and quickly made friends so that my daughter could be part of the meaningful activities and playdates in the area. She was with my daughter for her major milestones of crawling, to walking, to talking and was a HUGE influence developing my daughters personality traits mirroring her own kindness and loving attitude. My husband and I work in finance which comes with some demanding hours, early mornings and occasional late evenings. Annie was extremely reliable and punctual every single day, showing up exactly when asked to give my daughter the best possible care. Annie also made sure my daughter had a clean playing space, bedroom and kept her clothes and closets tidy- as someone who is a "neat freak" - this came greatly appreciated. My daughter loved Annie's cooking better than my own - and I do not blame her, Annie is excellent in kitchen and prepared all my daughter's meal and designed the perfect schedule for her naps and classes- sending me updates and pictures throughout the day. Now that my daughter is almost 2 we are looking to move out of the city and therefore we are preparing ourselves for the heartbreaking goodbye we have to make. Annie has been the most loving, attentive, positive influence for my daughter and for the whole family that she will surely be missed.

Dione was our nanny for almost 11 years, since my son was 3 months old. She worked for us from July of 2010 to May of 2021. She started with us in NYC and decided to commute to us in Westchester when we moved. Due to a change in my husband's job status, we no longer needed full-time childcare. Dione lives in Brooklyn and is looking for a full-time position closer to home to start babysitting again. Dione is kind, caring, loving, and extremely responsible. We never had any issues with tardiness or unexplained absences. Dione transitioned wonderfully from caring for my children as infants to their ages of 11 and 8 years old when she left. When my children were toddlers, Dione took them to various activities at the library and play gyms. Since they transitioned to school age, she took them to all after-school activities. People often compliment us on how well-behaved and polite our children are, and a lot of that is attributed to Dione teaching them as they have grown. Dione also helped my children during Covid with their remote schooling and homework. We consider Dione a part of the family and were very sad to see her go. Any family would be extremely lucky to have her take care of their children.

Ivette is one of the most responsible and trustworthy people I've ever met. She is a career nanny in her early 50s who has seen it all. She's from Jamaica, has US citizenship, and has been in the US for 30 years. She came to me through a friend's referral, who had her as a nanny for 10 years. She's a really great nanny, always calm, and our twins adore her. We are moving and very sad to be losing Ivette! She watches our 19-month-old twins, 830am-530pm, Monday thru Friday. Her responsibilities are to care for the babies — play with them at home, read to them, change diapers, long walks, music class, and play in the park every day, and make lunch and dinner. She makes homemade applesauce for them once a week (their favorite) and does their laundry 2-3x per week. She’s great about teaching the babies manners and new words. They speak above a 2-year-old level at 19 months and she’s been a big part of that. She’s willing to stay late for date nights and has done overnights for us before, as well. Any good family would be lucky to have her!

Sonia has been a fantastic caregiver for our two daughters, and the only reason we haven't brought her on full-time is because they started daycare full-time. She is everything you want in a nanny: warm, charismatic, loving, trustworthy, and reliable. She radiates positive and warm energy - our daughters gravitated to her immediately and since then they've always been happy and relaxed in her presence. She was always punctual and is an excellent communicator who follows the lead on parents' style while offering insight and advice gleaned from her years of experience. She plays with, sings, and reads to our daughters constantly. She's also a safe driver, proactive about taking them on outings and researching local activities, and communicative in sending pictures/updates/videos throughout the day. Last, she's reliable, flexible on scheduling, and trustworthy. She's done date night sitting for us since our daughters started daycare, and also did a long overnight stay on a moment's notice when we had an out of town family emergency. Any family would be lucky to have Sonia, and little ones will be in excellent hands with her. Important to note, Sonia needs a dog- and cat-free home.

Eugenie is a wonderful warm, caring, intelligent and industrious nanny! We were so happy to find her through friends and would love to help her find a wonderful family to support. She has taken care of 4 of my children! She is energetic, fun, patient, reliable, generous and flexible. I have found that she takes care of me too ;). She is looking for a full time position or a morning part time role. (She would probably prefer full time.) Our children are growing up so we don't need her full time, but she is still so helpful and loved by all of us. She worked with our kids for over 4 years. You will be very lucky to have Eugenie in your home and close to your family. She takes care our children and completes light chores like snacks, meals and tidying up, etc. She works independently and creatively but also indulges our preferences on how to do chores or work with the children. She met our children when they were between the ages of 4-17 but also has experience with younger children. When you meet her, you will see what an amazing caregiver she is. We all adore her and are grateful to her for taking care of us.

She picked the kids up from school, took them to playdates and after school activities, ensured that their homework was complete. She did laundry, light housework and handled dinner time most nights. In the summer they were out and about on excursions all over the city. EE was recommended to us by mutual friend.

Parent Reference

Ligaya, who our family affectionately calls Yaya, has been a wonderful addition to our lives ever since she joined our family nearly two years ago, when our son was 9 months old. Yaya is thoughtful, proactive, trustworthy, and reliable, and she has loved our son as one of her own. As two first time-parents with full-time jobs and unpredictable schedules, we are overwhelmed with gratitude and admiration for the stability she has provided in our lives. It is hard to put to words how much we love, respect and appreciate Ligaya. She is a joy to be around and always finds a way to go above and beyond. Aside from taking excellent care of our son, teaching him valuable lessons, and proactively managing an enriching schedule of activities and playdates, she also prepared delicious meals for the whole family and kept our apartment neat, clean, and organized. She has excelled in keeping our active toddler engaged and has played a vital role in helping him to make friends at the park, in classes, and in our building. With over a decade of nanny experience across NYC and 4 years of experience as a baby nurse, Ligaya is well-qualified and has a natural connection with children of all ages. She is certified in first aid/CPR and is bilingual (English & Filipino). We no longer require a full-time nanny, as I have recently stopped working, but we otherwise would have looked forward to continuing to work with Ligaya for years to come. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ligaya, and any family would be extremely fortunate to experience the joy of working with her. Please feel free to reach out to me if have you any questions or would like to discuss in greater detail!

I am posting this referral for our current Nanny, Sonia Best. She has been with our family for 2 years and our daughter Mia has just flourished under her care. Sonia is experienced, calm, and incredibly nurturing. I believe we are the 4th family Sonia has worked with in her 20 years of experience, we would love to keep her on but are moving. Sonia is incredibly reliable and easy to communicate with. She is always on time, if not early. For our daughter, Sonia filled her days with learning through crafts and games. She also was wonderful at making friends in the park and setting up playdates during the day. She would be a great help to a family in Brooklyn- preferably park slope. She is looking for something that is minimum 3 days a week and maximum 4.

We could not speak more highly of Gladys (affectionately known as Neenee to the children she's cared for.) From the moment we met her we knew she would be a great addition to our family - she is warm, responsible and so attentive, we had that instant gut feeling that she was meant to work with us. She also came highly recommended by her previous family, where she helped raise twin girls from the time they were 6 months until they went to school full time at about 2.5 years old. Gladys started taking care of our daughter when she was just 2 1/2 months old, and not only did they bond immediately, but she really helped ease me into the idea of having a nanny. As a first-time parent I was hesitant and nervous but within the first few days of knowing Gladys I felt at ease. She was so attentive with our daughter, and crafted these little "classes" throughout the day to keep her engaged -- during reading class she'd read in both English and French; during play class she would bring out new stuffed animals and other toys, trying out different things to keep our daughter engaged; and in music class (our little girl's favorite) she would play songs and bring out instruments (baby maracas, a piano, etc.) It was such a great way to develop a routine, and my husband and I learned a lot from her. Gladys is beyond capable, very trustworthy and truly loves caring for children. We unfortunately had a change of situation and are desperate to help her find a new family. She is truly wonderful; I could not have asked for a better first experience with a nanny. She is open to nanny share, and location. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions!

My AMAZING NANNY is looking for a full time position. My family and I relocated to Westport Connecticut. The saddest part about us moving was leaving behind our incredible nanny. She is loving, trustworthy, dependable, caring, intelligent, energetic and an all around great person. She has over 10 years of experience with children of different ages (newborn to preteens) all over NYC. She has been us for almost 5 years. She has been with us since my older son was a toddler and the younger son just 3 months old. Our nanny helped teach both our boys invaluable social and academic skills both in the apartment and on countless adventures outside. She also prepared great meals and healthy snacks for my boys, kept them happy, active and engaged both during good and bad weather days. She has good hands on organization around the house and kept our apartment/house neat and clean. She even helped us out in Westport part time live-in for a year. I can’t express enough how much we love and respect her- she is a confident go getter who is organized and just a joy to be around! She is also covid vaccinated and covid conscious. Any family would be so lucky to have her.

Shardha is a treasure of a woman, and every baby (and parent) deserves a nanny with this much heart, care, and kindness. For six years, Shardha cared for our daughter -- and by extension, our entire family -- ensuring that she has been well-fed, carefully bathed, entertained, cuddled, nurtured, toiled-trained, and beautifully dressed every day. We are Shardha’s third family; she has 15 years of nanny experience. She has shared her knowledge generously, managing the nap schedule and eating stages, and coordinating regular playdates and outings (park, library, museums, etc.). She ensures timely attendance at school (2s, 3s, and Kindergarten programs) and classes across our neighbourhood (My Gym, ballet, taekwondo, yoga, tennis, soccer, etc.). Punctuality is a priority for Shardha, as are safety and good sense. Where appropriate, she also takes her to the doctor/dentist independently (or meets me there). Shardha has instilled excellent table manners and eating habits, cultivated kindness and good manners, and played endlessly. She is our daughter’s best friend, and it is always a delight to hear them chatting away about their day and adventures. At the same time, Shardha has assigned age-appropriate jobs and tasks so as to develop responsibility and maturity. We come home every day to a tidy apartment and our daughter’s room is organized, with her clothes, toys, books, and other belongings cared for and closely managed. She takes the lead on purging outgrown items as well as rounding out our daughter’s grocery and pharmacy needs as needed. We will miss Shardha’s loving care enormously. Shardha would love to start again with a baby in Manhattan. Full-time only. I would be delighted to answer any questions about Shardha, feel free to contact me too.

Joy was instrumental in raising our son and daughter. She started with the birth of our first and left only after our kids were in high school. We still consider her an integral part of our family. She visits our family regularly and is included in all holiday and family events. Joy has a special talent in caring for newborns. Joy was indispensable in helping us navigate through the first years of our kid’s lives. She played a crucial role in our family, giving security and comfort to us as parents during periods of heavy workloads and travel. Joy is loving; she cared for our kids like they were her own. She is dependable; she does what she says she is going to do. Throughout her 15 years with our family, Joy kept our house running smoothly. She is organized, thorough and protective. She always made sure our kids were on-time (as she always is), prepared for school, and were polite. She helped with homework and enjoyed sharing stories, games and music with our kids and their friends. She developed a working relationship with the kids’ teachers. She arranged frequent playdates, either inside or on the playground. She always makes it a priority to be sure they were appropriately well-dressed and clean. She never neglected the kids’ laundry and they were always well-fed with healthy meals and snacks. She is flexible, allowing for extended hours on short notice due to our work schedules. Joy developed a strong relationship with her fellow-nannies. She was well-known in our upper east side neighborhood among the shopkeepers and building residents. As our son and daughter have grown into young adults they stay in frequent touch with Joy. After our kids out-grew Joy’s daily care, she has worked for a few other families, leaving only after they moved out of the area, or the kids grew into teenagers. All, when asked, will give Joy their strongest positive recommendation. Your family will be extremely fortunate if you bring Joy onboard. Your newborn or toddler will benefit from Joy’s expertise and love. We, as a family (parents and kids,) extend the highest possible recommendation to you for Joy.

I feel like I won the lottery when I hired Gloria to take care of my son - she is that good. What sets Gloria apart from other caretakers is not only her vast experience handling every possible situation (my kids were quite rambunctious), but the passion with which she approached every day for almost 16 years for my family. Even though we eventually moved our separate ways, my kids still call her often and she is still providing them with care and guidance. Gloria is honest, punctual, and reliable. As a mother, my one requirement, was that anyone taking care of my child always acted with their best interest and Gloria never failed to do so. As a former educator, Gloria is always teaching and singing while getting the newborn outside and stimulating all the child’s senses. I have no doubt that Gloria has always had a special gift when it comes to taking care of newborns and any family would be lucky to have her.

Our AMAZING nanny, Florence, has been with our family for over two years and we are sad to say goodbye! As our family relocates to New Jersey, we will miss the sound of our 2 boys giggling with her outside of our door as they return home from their daily adventures. Florence came highly recommended from a co-worker and, from day one when she came to our rescue as exhausted parents of 2 kids under 2, she has not only been someone we could rely on, but someone who cared for our children as if they were her own. For you, she will be the nanny to scoop your kids up and get them some fresh air and vitamin D. She will be the nanny on the playground playing with your kids while others are on their phone. She will be the nanny who keeps your kid out an extra fifteen minutes just because they are having such a nice time together. We could go on and on (and are happy to do so), but the simple truth is that welcoming Florence into your home will be one of the best decisions you will ever make for your family.

I am writing to highly recommend Hazel as a nanny. She has been with our family for the past year and has been caring for our daughter since she was just 3 months old. In that time, we have come to rely on her as a trusted member of our family and a dedicated and loving caregiver for our daughter. Unfortunately, we will be moving out of NYC soon, so we will no longer require Hazel’s services. Hazel has a natural ability to connect with children (especially babies) and create a warm and nurturing environment for them. She is patient, kind, and always goes above and beyond to make sure that our daughter is safe, happy, and well-cared for. One of the things that impressed us most about Hazel is her ability to adapt and be flexible to our ever-changing schedule. She is always willing to work around our schedule, including staying late or arriving early to provide an extra set of hands when my husband or I am traveling for work. She is always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that our daughter is well taken care of. Hazel's ability to connect with our child is truly remarkable, and she has been instrumental in helping her develop and grow in her first year. Hazel has helped her to reach her milestones, and she has also been a great support to me as a first-time parent and adjusting to being a working mother. We will all miss so many things about her! Overall, I cannot recommend Hazel highly enough as a nanny. She is a truly exceptional individual, and I have no doubt that she will be an asset to any family that is lucky enough to have her care for their children.

Ugyen has worked with our family for 4 years, from when our son was 2 years old until now 6 years old. In addition, she helped with our daughter when she was a newborn, and then took care of her full-time beginning when she was 3 months old until now at 2 years, 9 months. During that time, she has been a patient, steady and respectful nanny who has always been playful and caring with our children. She takes them outside every day, weather permitting, and speaks with them about what they are seeing and hearing (e.g., birds, trees, flowers, snow). She asks them many questions and listens to their answers, making them feel heard and considered. She has set firm boundaries for them by providing structure and routine, giving them a sense of safety and well-being. Ugyen is a great advocate for the kids, and in turn, has taught them how to advocate for themselves. They often tell me how much they love her, which has been the greatest testament to her ability to connect with and care for our children. Ugyen is punctual and begins her work straight away, proactively preparing meals and helping with chores and tidying around the home. She shares how the kids’ day went, sends reminders when they need something, and promptly delivers messages from teachers, doctors, etc. Ugyen is looking for long-term, full-time employment and would be very well suited for a family with a newborn with plans to add siblings in the future, and she is hoping to find a family in the UES in Manhattan. We are hesitant to let Ugyen go, as she has been a reliable and flexible caregiver; however, we no longer need a full-time nanny as my work schedule is changing and our children are now in school. She is able to start on May 1. I give Ugyen my highest recommendation and would love to provide more details on her time with our family. Please do not hesitate to contact me.

I would certainly recommend her work. Nandi demonstrated tremendous responsibility in taking care of my son and in keeping the house in working order. She is kind, trustworthy and great at her job , also very friendly with other parents and caregivers. It is clear to me that Nandi has a passion for childcare and I see this manifest in her communication skills and creative ideas for activities. Unfortunately we relocated to upstate and we are helping find another family she can share her gifts with.

As a new mom, I cannot express how appreciative I was to have Michelle “join” our family. Having relocated to a new city, where my husband was working full time as a travelling musician, I must admit I was very unsure of how I would enter into motherhood. In our search for a nanny, I needed someone who was not only great with newborns but someone who would also be patient with me as a new mom. I was fortunate to find both in Michelle. She was with us for the birth of our first son , so we kept her on when I found out I was pregnant with our second child. Although I thought I would not need the assistance with our second son, I was happy Michelle decided to stay on. She is very helpful not only with the boys but she is a great cook. She arrives on time and gets straight to work. She created a routine that worked for the kids and I; and, when I had to return to work, I was more than comfortable to do so. It was only because my husband and I decided to relocate due to his job that we had to part with Michelle. I would love to provide more details on Michelle’s 4-year tenure with our family.

Evelyne has worked for us full time caring for our daughter from 4-7 years of age. She is a truly wonderful person and we are so lucky we found her. She is one of the most loving and empathetic people I have ever met. She took care of my very opinionated (and sometimes obstinate) daughter from ages 4 to 7 with humor and affection, providing her with just the balance of firmness and love she needed to grow. She helped our daughter complete her homework and reading activities every day. She also made sure she had play dates, trips to parks and museums, and social activities every week. She kept the house tidy and did light housekeeping as well as running errands and generally keeping our family life running smoothly. She cooked dinner for my daughter each evening and prepared her lunches. She was never late but on the other hand was always flexible and understanding if we were. She was available to come early, stay in the evenings, or babysit on the weekends as needed. Evelyne is open to families in Brooklyn or Manhattan. She loves infants and would like to join a family with a new baby or one on the way, but is open to all ages of children. Evelyne is a special person. I feel blessed that the universe sent her to us. Any family she chooses is lucky indeed. Her current family has reduced her hours to sporadic given a change in their needs for childcare. She is looking for a full time role. Previous employers also love Evelyne: "Evelyne has been amazing and we feel blessed to have had her with us for our son's first year of life." - Catherine Nolan Holdman "What is not simply stated nor easily conveyed is how she loved, protected, and nurtured Patrick as if he were her own." - Robert K. Holdman "Evelyne has such a great spirit, warm heart, and loves being part of the development and caring for our daughter. Her knowledge of newborns infants and toddlers is unmeasurable and has proven exponentially helpful as we navigate through these first few years of our child's life." - Gina Gray "Ms. Richardson has been an employee in our household as babysitter for more than 8 years to our 2 young daughters. She has become like a member of our family and her love and care of our girls has been the very best we could have imagined." - Martha Brooks

She loves them as her own, and they love her back just as much. I have no doubt that she would have been with us until my kids leave for college had we not made the decision to move to the suburbs. Jan has been a nanny for nearly 30 years and as a parent I have been grateful to benefit from her experience and wisdom. In addition to the tremendous support she provides, Jan brings the most wonderful energy to our house. Her energetic and warm presence won me over the minute I met her. I knew from that moment that her vibrance was what I wanted for my kids. She genuinely loves children and the joy she derives from them is palpable. She was highly recommended to me by another parent in 2013 when that parent was moving her family to Boston and, now I hope to pay that favor forward.

As working parents, we needed someone who would give Joshua the same care and attention we normally gave him. The previous care takers always fell short of something then we found Marie. I highly recommend her if you have a newborn. In addition she would read him stories, do laundry, and lite housekeeping. I never came home to a chaotic house. Everything was always put back in place. She made friends with the other nannies and arranged play dates so Joshua would interact with other children his age. In July 2021, although it wasn’t an easy decision we had to let Marie go when Joshua started going to school.

Tracey has been a wonderful addition to our family. She is warm, kind, patient, hardworking, flexible and reliable (and I could go on!). We found Tracey on Mommy Bites and she has been with us full-time for the last 7 months caring for our 4- and 8-year-old children. While it has not be a long time (she was with her prior family for 3 years), she became part of our family almost instantly. She picks up and drops off our children from school, takes them to the park, classes and playdates and makes all of their snacks and meals. She has also been very helpful in keeping our home clean and organized. Tracey is an awesome team player - we have not found anything she’s not willing to do to keep our kids happy and our household running smoothly. She is always early and willing to stay late, even at a moment’s notice when something unexpected happens. Our kids adore her, especially our little guy. I often hear them laughing and cracking jokes when they are playing games after school and their goodbyes are full of love yous and hugs. In such a short time, she has been able to form a special bond with our kids. Our needs have changed unexpectedly and we no longer need full-time support. We are sad to say good bye to Tracey but are hoping to help find her a new loving family to care for.

Alice is a very nice, positive, and free-spirited lady. Alice has been with us for over six years when my girls were two months and two years old and was an amazing addition to our family. She's also a great cook and sometimes cook for the entire family! My oldest daughter loved being in the kitchen with her as we baked cupcakes and make snacks. Alice is a very nurturing, energetic, and responsible Nanny. Alice is also a very trustworthy person. The children and I can be a bit of a challenge at times, but Alice was very patient with us. :-). Alice makes friends easily with other Nannies and is always arranging playdates and other activities for the girls. Alice also takes the girls to their morning and afternoon activities. Alice is also a great mother figure to my girls and anyone that hires her would be in for a treat and add adventure to their family. I highly recommend her.

Parent Reference

Our exceptional nanny Gwen was featured in Nanny Circle magazine in 2019 (page 27): https://online.fliphtml5.com/tpln/djeb/#p=26 Gwen was our two sons’ caretaker for the last 4 years. She is a highly experienced, energetic, loving, and trustworthy nanny, and is a true lifeline for our family. Gwen possesses all of the qualities you would look for-- so warm and caring, extremely punctual, great sense of humor, flexible with scheduling changes, always takes initiatives, child-focussed. With over 20 years of experience in childcare and home assistance, she was an integral part of our family as our older son grew from baby to toddler, and our family went from a unit of 3 to 4. Gwen was responsible for (and excelled in) overseeing all aspects of our two boys’ health, safety, and social lives. She also helped us daily with routine household duties such as shopping, cleaning, and preparing meals. I would love to speak in support of Gwen via phone or text! Please do not hesitate to contact me in addition to reaching out to Gwen.

Parent Reference

Doris has been our loving full-time nanny for our toddler for the better part of the last year. She is one of the most caring and compassionate nannies we have ever had. She worked with our son for 6 days a week (live-in) and contributed to his growth as a child in so many different ways. Doris also enjoyed cooking for our family on occasion, and similarly was very good at tidying around the house and keeping our son's room in perfect fashion. Her maiden tongue is Spanish but she understands and speaks English capably. Perhaps more than anything, Doris is as trustworthy as they come. My wife and I trusted her from the start and knew that our family was always in good hands with her.

Availability: Full time, Will work weekends, Desired start 2023-05-22

Parent Reference

Carolina has been our loving and devoted nanny full time for the past 1.5 years. Before working for us, She worked for multiple families in our neighborhood, all of them fell in love with her and keep in touch with her to this day, and so we felt extremely lucky that we happened to be in the right place at the right time. She has contributed immensely to our daughter's growth and it is with a heavy heart that we are leaving her and putting our daughter in daycare. She is kind, compassionate, caring and above all loves our daughter as if she was her own. Carolina has become an important piece of our family and our daughter loves her so much and runs to her every time she sees her. Carolina is highly experienced and has vast knowledge in caring for children. She goes above and beyond to educate them and help them learn in addition to the unconditional love that she showers them. Another great perk is that Carolina has been helping our daughter develop by making learning fun (our daughter now knows Spanish!). Carolina is simply amazing and we feel really sad that we have to let her go but are very excited for the next family whom she will take by storm with her kindness, love and warmth. I can guarantee that if you choose Carolina, you will have 100% peace of mind as she is every parent's dream.

Parent Reference

I hired Ceci to work as a nanny in my home five years ago, and I would certainly recommend her work. Ceci has demonstrated tremendous responsibility in taking care of our children and in keeping the house in working order. She is kind, trustworthy and great with children. It is clear to me that working as a nanny is a passion for Ceci. She loves working with the children, and I see this manifest in her communication skills and creative ideas for activities. She keeps the children occupied and most importantly, safe. She speaks mostly Spanish as her first language and my kids learned to speak fluently thanks to her. Her English is not her best skill but I speak Spanish too so the communication was not a problem at all. Ultimately, Ceci is an excellent nanny because she is so trustworthy. She is always on-time and held to high responsibility. My family has never known her not to be forthcoming and honest.
