NY Area Nannies

Rosa is loving, generous, hard working, and passionate about her job – she brings her best self
to work each day, and it shows.
Another one of Rosa’s strengths is her warm and caring personality. Our daughter would immediately light up in the morning when she was greeted by Rosa and was always at peace when we left or returned home due to Rosa’s kind nature. Throughout the day, Rosa would send check-in texts and pictures letting us know about our daughter’s daily experiences. She always used a calm and respectful tone with our daughter that allowed her to have fun and explore while being safe. In addition, Rosa befriended other nannies in our community and joined a nanny group which provided our daughter with regular socialization opportunities with children her age. We were so grateful for her community involvement and desire to help our daughter build her social skills.
There are many more strengths and examples of Rosa’s character we could testify to.It was our privilege to have her care for our daughter and we believe that Rosa’s services will be a valuable asset to any family or community that she joins.

Hello, I am writing to recommend our wonderful, nanny who we are unfortunately outgrowing. Sandra is a professional and career nanny who has been with us since our youngest was 2 months old. She has worked for several families before us and was well loved in her prior positions. She is great with babies but also really great with our little boy 6 years old. She is never late. She sings and reads to our children and has ensured our baby was meeting all his milestones. She is very observant and considerate and will let us know if she notices any rashes/bump and looks at the UV index before she takes the kids outside. Most importantly she is someone we trust. I have never had to use a nanny cam because I never doubted that she loved and cared for our kids.
She does not currently drive but has walked our kids without issue.
Please feel free to reach out to me with any further questions, or contact her directly at (347) 401-2093.

I believe there is no greater testament than to entrust a person with the care and oversight of one’s child – my wife and I have done just that with Omwattie (Jennifer) Williams, as she has taken care of our now 13–year old daughter since she was just four months old.

Over the past decade and more, we have come to know Jennifer as a morally upright woman, a dedicated mother whose background as an educator of young children has shone through in raising her own children from smart boys into strong men. This dedication is matched only by her devotion to her husband, who practices medicine in their native Guyana.

Jennifer values family, friendship and laughter, learning in all forms, culture, nurturing food and a good book. She is highly dependable, trustworthy and conscientious – we recommend her as nanny and sitter without reservation and if helpful, would be happy to speak further upon her behalf.

Additional Profile / Qualifications:
– Kind and gentle former school teacher who is wonderful with children (ages 0 – 10+)
– Handles light cleaning and laundry for our family
– Excellent cook when requested
– Adept at coordinating, managing playdates, navigating city and subways
– Open to dog-walking, depending on breed (we have a small morkie)

Hi everyone! I’d like to introduce you to our amazing nanny of 9 years, Lucia. She joined us when my oldest was just a few months old, and she has been the backbone of our home ever since.

As the kids have grown and their needs have changed, we no longer require full-time care. She is now looking for a new part-time role or two (approximately 20-30 hours per week max) that focuses on the active, school-age phase (elementary and up) that can include navigating city commutes, managing busy activity schedules, and being a “bridge” between school and home. She’s looking in Brooklyn (preferred) or Manhattan.

As a side note, Lucia is also an avid (and incredibly talented) crafter and creator of fun things – she’d be a great asset for school-age kids, helping with projects or encouraging creativity.

Her crafty side, combined with her experience and caring nature, makes her an amazing fit for a part-time role with school-age kids.

I can’t say enough great things about Lucia! She has been such an important part of our family for so long. The kids adore her and, most importantly, feel safe and secure with her, which has been such a godsend for this working mom! She has had several long-term families throughout her career and stays in touch with all of them – a true testament to the kind of person she is. She is experienced in managing kids’ food allergies with care and diligence and focuses on safety-first in everything she does.

If you are looking for a someone to help manage your kids’ school-year logistics and provide a warm, stable environment for your children, you truly cannot do better than Lucia.

This is my contact number.

Rachael came into our lives when our daughter, Klaudia, was just six months old, during a time when I was a new mother working full-time in critical care, far from my immediate family in California. Without the day-to-day support of family nearby, we were navigating parenthood largely on our own—and Rachael truly became the person who guided us through it. In so many ways, she didn’t just care for Klaudia—she taught us how to be parents.

From the very beginning, she brought a warmth and presence that immediately put us at ease. I still remember our first meeting—she walked into the room and instantly lit it up. As a new parent, it is incredibly difficult to trust someone else with your child, but with Rachael, that trust came quickly and deeply. I always felt completely safe and comfortable knowing Klaudia was in her care, which is something that cannot be overstated.

Rachael has over 20 years of childcare experience, and it shows in everything she does. She has worked with a wide range of families, including those with multiple children and children with special needs, and she approaches every situation with confidence, patience, and genuine love. She is consistently punctual, reliable, and an excellent communicator. Childcare with Rachael has always felt like a true partnership—she is thoughtful, proactive, and always open to discussing ways to support Klaudia’s growth and development.

She has been there for our family in both the everyday moments and the most difficult ones. When Klaudia was hospitalized at two years old for breathing difficulties, Rachael was by my side the entire time—supporting me as a mother while also caring for Klaudia with unwavering attention and love. She has always made herself available for our family, often adjusting her schedule, staying late when needed, and helping with date nights so my husband and I could have time together.

Rachael is a natural caregiver in every sense of the word. She is fully present—never distracted, never on her phone—and always deeply engaged with Klaudia. She has taken her to countless appointments, including pediatrician, dental, and ophthalmology visits, and has been instrumental in building Klaudia’s daily structure and routine. Beyond that, she has created a rich and joyful world for her—bringing her to gymnastics, art classes, the library, and community spaces like the botanical gardens, zoo, and Coney Island. Through Rachael’s strong connections in the childcare community, Klaudia has also built meaningful friendships with other children.

Over the years, Rachael has become so much more than a nanny—she is truly part of our family. I genuinely believe that Klaudia is a happier, more curious, more resilient, and emotionally secure child because of the love, consistency, and care Rachael has given her.

While we are transitioning to school and this chapter is coming to a close, the decision is incredibly difficult because of how much Rachael means to us. We know without a doubt that we will remain in touch, and that she will always be an important part of our lives.

Any family would be extraordinarily lucky to have her.

We can’t say enough good things about Isidora. She cared for our daughter when we were first-time parents, and her warmth, patience, and steady presence made a huge difference during that time. She has a natural way with babies and always made us feel that our child was safe, understood, and genuinely loved.

Even now, with our daughter in school, we still turn to Isidora for occasional babysitting. Our daughter remembers her fondly and lights up when she sees her. Isidora has stayed in our lives in thoughtful ways, including remembering birthdays and sending gifts, which speaks to the kind of person she is.

She is reliable, kind, and deeply attentive. Always on time and never on her phone when watching kids. Any family would be lucky to have her, and we recommend her without hesitation. Please reach out to her at 347-813-9745.

It is with great pleasure that I offer a wholehearted recommendation of our former nanny, Yanie Tajon. Yanie has been an incredible addition to our family over the last several years. Any family that has the chance to work with Yanie will find themselves very lucky.

Yanie began working with us when my son was 4 months old, and was with us for 3.5 hears, also taking care of my younger daughter when she was born. We parted ways only because we moved out of the country, and we all miss Yanie greatly. She exudes warmth and love, and she and my children built an incredible bond. She is kind, gentle, compassionate, and professional. Yanie is a clear and direct communicator, especially when it comes to our children’s needs and development, and has always been open to feedback and discussion. She brings a wealth of experience raising children – not only her own now-adult sons but also multiple families she’s worked with long-term in the New York City area over the last two decades.

In terms of the more tactical parts of the job, Yanie is incredibly reliable and always on time. Her hours with us tended to be mostly stable week to week, but she was also willing to come early or stay later if needed and if her schedule allows. She is proactive and organized. She is quite outgoing and built a community with many other nannies and children, so it felt like my kids from a very early age had great social exposure and friendships. She was always supportive of plans we made for the kids (i.e. music and gym classes), but also independently set up playdates, trips to the zoo, library, and playgrounds, etc. to ensure our children were stimulated and challenged, and was resourceful as well with crafts and activities as my son grew older. She went above and beyond to help around the house if our children are napping and helped keep our lives overall (not just the kids!) running smoothly.

We are incredibly grateful for the time Yanie spent with our family, and want to support her to find a role with a great family. Her preference would be to join a family with 1 newborn, but she would be open to a newborn and an older sibling.

I cannot recommend Shantel highly enough. From the very beginning, she cared for our baby with such genuine love and attentiveness that it truly felt like she became part of our family. She was with my family for 10 weeks, 6 days a week. As a night nurse, she brought not only deep knowledge and professionalism, but also warmth, kindness, and a wonderful sense of humor that made those early, often exhausting weeks so much easier.

Shantel is incredibly trustworthy and dependable. You can rest easy knowing your baby is in the best possible hands. She has an intuitive understanding of newborn care and sleep routines, and thanks to her guidance and consistency, our baby was sleeping through the night by just 7 weeks old. Even now, at 20 months, those healthy sleep habits she helped establish are still going strong.

Beyond her expertise, what sets Shantel apart is the way she cares for the entire family. She brought calm, reassurance, and positivity into our home every single day. Her presence was a gift during such a special (and sometimes overwhelming) time.

Any family would be beyond lucky to have Shantel as a night nurse or nanny. She is truly exceptional in every way.

Standout things about Domsy:
1. She immediately made our daughter feel comfortable.
2. Ensured our daughter was engaged intellectually and socially everyday! Coordinated play dates, outings to the park and library, story times…
3. She worked around our schedule and habits from day 1
4. Frequently asked for feedback about herself to make sure we were happy.
5. She created food recipes to our fussy daughter and constantly helped around the house , without asking

She’s is a mother of two teen children ages 17 and 14, a certified in New born Care Specialist and CPR trained. She has over 10 years of experience with newborn, toddlers and twins and multiple children. She’s creates firm boundaries and structure for the children in her care while showering them with tones of love.

Any family she joins next would be very lucky to have her as part of their team.

Electra is loving, calm and patient. She enjoys taking children outside and to library classes to interact with other kids. Our son, who can be very serious, always smiles when she comes in the morning and loves her dearly. He can be stubborn about eating (and other things), yet Electra is more determined. She’ll make sure he eats properly while being kind and attentive. She does laundry regularly and is extremely tidy. She doesn’t work Sundays because she goes to church, but if you were to give her enough notice, she would be able to cover a Sunday or two throughout the year.

I recently had the pleasure of working with an exceptional nanny, and although I had hoped she would remain with our family long‑term, an unexpected change in our circumstances means we are unable to continue. I want to ensure another family has the opportunity to benefit from her care.

Jill is truly outstanding. She worked with us for about a month, and during that time she became a calming, joyful, and reliable presence in our home. From her very first interaction with my 6 month old he lit up with smiles — her warmth and natural connection with children are immediately evident.

With over 25 years of experience, Jill brings deep knowledge, professionalism, and a nurturing approach to her work. Before joining our family, she spent seven years with one family and six years with another, demonstrating her commitment and the trust she builds over time.

Any family would be fortunate to have her. If you’d like more information, I’m happy to share.

Because we moved from NYC, we had to part ways with our phenomenal nanny after 11 wonderful years together. From the moment Annie met our son at just four months old, we knew he would always be safe, loved, and in exceptional hands.

Over the years, teachers, parents, neighbors, and friends consistently commented on how special Annie is and how fortunate we were to have her caring for our son.

We were the third family Annie worked with, and she has a long-standing history of staying with families for many years. She is excellent with children of all ages and incredibly reliable—never once late and rarely, if ever, taking a sick day. We could always depend on her to manage daily routines seamlessly, from appointments to activities, ensuring our son was safe, prepared, and well cared for at all times. As he grew, she continued to support his busy schedule, getting him to and from school, sports, and appointments with ease.

What truly sets Annie apart is the level of attention and care she brings each day. She was always fully engaged—never distracted—and spent her time playing, doing arts and crafts, and creating meaningful experiences with our son. We still have many of the projects they made together, and to this day, he adores her (he has always called her “My Annie”).

From infancy through adolescence, Annie supported every stage of his development. She prepared homemade meals when he was young and continued to cook thoughtful, healthy meals and snacks as he grew. Each evening, we returned home to a happy, well-cared-for child who had been fed, bathed, and fully engaged throughout the day.

She also made time off from school incredibly special—planning outings to museums, parks, and other enriching activities. Her ability to balance fun, learning, and social interaction was exceptional.

Beyond her caregiving, Annie is deeply loyal and became a trusted partner in our parenting journey. Her instincts, experience, and genuine love for children made a lasting impact on our son and our family. Many of the qualities he has today are a reflection of her influence.

While it was incredibly difficult to say goodbye, we are excited for the next family who will benefit from Annie’s care. She is truly one of a kind.

We often say we “won the lottery” when Annie came into our lives—and what she gave to our son is truly priceless.

NOTE: she will do laundry and cook for the children.

It is with both gratitude and sadness that I write this reference for our incredible nanny, who has been with our family for the past 2.5 years. She has been such a meaningful part of our lives, and it is only due to my recent job relocation to another state that we are parting ways.

From the very beginning, she brought warmth, reliability, and genuine care into our home. She consistently created a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for our children, always going above and beyond to support their growth and happiness. Her patience, attentiveness, and ability to connect with them on their level made a lasting impact not just on them, but on our entire family.

She always made sure the kids had meaningful interaction throughout the day by organizing playdates and taking them to classes, keeping them active, social, and engaged.

She is dependable, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. Whether it was managing daily routines, planning activities, or simply being a steady and comforting presence, she handled everything with professionalism and heart. I always felt completely at ease knowing my children were in her care.

Beyond her role as a caregiver, she truly became part of our family. Her kindness, positivity, and strong work ethic are qualities that any household would be lucky to have.

I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking a trustworthy, dedicated, and loving nanny. She will be deeply missed, and any family would be fortunate to have her.

Please feel free to reach out at 929-232-4297 if you have any questions.

I would love to recommend of lovely nanny as because we’re moving across the country. If there were any way for us to take her along with us, we definitely would!
Norissa has been with us since our son was 6 months old and has been an incredibly loving, playful, and steady presence in his life. He runs to the door as soon as he hears her come in! From our very first interaction, it was clear that she deeply cares for and loves children. Her strong knowledge of child development, paired with her warmth and playfulness, has encouraged our son through each milestone. She also helped us with several difficult issues, including a strong solids aversion and sleep struggles.
I’ve had the privilege of seeing how she shows up with my son everyday, and she is always fully present and focused on him: playing, singing, talking, reading, and laughing with him. She takes him on daily outings to the park and playground, brings him to classes, and has even helped him find friends in the neighborhood to have playdates with!
Norissa is extremely reliable and dependable and has always accommodated our changing schedules or additional hours when needed. She’s also been very helpful with preparing my toddler’s meals, tidying, and doing laundry and dishes.

We were lucky to meet Sharon in the summer of 2016 when I was about to have my second child. We had been sending our oldest to a daycare but realized that would not work well with two children — it wasn’t easy with one! Sharon made our lives infinitely easier and was wonderful with our kids. She truly loved spending time with them and they loved spending time with her. She kept them very active — taking them to parks and libraries and organizing playdates with other nannies and kids in the neighborhood. She was always on time and willing to stay late (even last minute when my job required) or come on weekends. Sharon stopped working for us in 2020 and she then worked for two other families and now is working for the MTA but would like to return to nannying and is looking for a new family. Please feel free to reach out!

Moni has been an invaluable part of our family for 3 years — from the time I brought my daughter home from the hospital, to her first day at “school” and the start of my second pregnancy.  She is intuitive and protective.  Moni taught my daughter her alphabet and numbers quite early, always found interesting library and music classes, and helped her make friends at the park who she still considers her closest friends. I asked her to speak Spanish exclusively to my daughter to fortify the language, and she absolutely did. Moni also made sure my first floor was immaculately tidy every time upon my return from work. I interviewed a LOT of people before I landed on Moni, and I cannot speak more highly of her, she is certainly a gem.

We are so excited to recommend our former incredible nanny, Melissa, to a new family through Mommybites!

Melissa was an essential part of our family, she brings over 24 years of hands-on childcare experience with children ranging from as young as 6 weeks old through the early teen years. She is not only deeply nurturing and attentive, but also incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to child development, routines, and milestones. As a mother of three adult daughters, she brings both professional expertise and real-life parenting wisdom into every home she enters.

Melissa arrives each day with a happy, energetic disposition, ready to get the day started. She is a true self-starter, and the children naturally gravitate toward her. She has a gift for creating a warm, loving, and structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and truly seen. From introducing solids and managing sleep regressions to potty training and navigating toddler transitions, she approaches every stage with patience, confidence, and care.

She is dependable, proactive, and fully invested in the well-being of the children she cares for. Melissa takes initiative in assuming all responsibilities related to the children, including meal prep, organizing schedules, planning engaging activities, and ensuring each child’s emotional and developmental needs are met. She also helps with light household tasks, which she consistently initiates on her own without needing direction.

Melissa is a true team player—direct, transparent, and communicative with parents—making her not only an exceptional caregiver for children but also a strong support system for the entire family. She goes above and beyond in every aspect of her role, bringing dedication, warmth, and professionalism into the home. Most importantly, she treats the children as if they were her own—with genuine love and care.

Melissa is currently available part time through June and full time beginning mid September, and she’s looking to join a new family where she can continue to offer her exceptional care and become a trusted, support system.

Any family would be truly lucky to have her. Please feel free to reach out for more details or a direct reference. We cannot recommend her enough!!

She is loving, caring,
happy, responsible and reliable. She is amazing at engaging children at different age groups, arranging play dates with my son’s friends, very friendly with my sons friends and parents, helped with potty training, and helped him learn his numbers and letters. She created a routine schedule of learning and creative play for my son. Anyone who knows or works with children knows routine is key and she excelled. She has all the attributes you look for in a nanny.

I had the absolute pleasure of having Mediour Mdengue care for my daughter for three years, and I can confidently say she is one of the most exceptional childcare providers I have ever met.

From the very beginning, Mediour created a safe, loving, and structured environment where my daughter truly thrived. She treated my child as if she were her own—always attentive, patient, and deeply nurturing. As a parent, there is nothing more reassuring than knowing your child is in capable and caring hands, and Mediour consistently exceeded my expectations.

Her experience truly shows in everything she does. Whether it was managing daily routines, preparing meals, supporting early learning, or simply providing emotional comfort, she handled every situation with professionalism and warmth. My daughter developed beautifully under her care—socially, emotionally, and intellectually.

What sets Mediour apart is her reliability and genuine dedication. She was always punctual, trustworthy, and flexible with our family’s needs. Her calm demeanor and natural ability to connect with children made a lasting impact on our household.

Even after three years, we still consider Mediour part of our family. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a highly experienced, dependable, and compassionate childcare provider.

Please feel free to contact me for further reference—I would be more than happy to share more about our wonderful experience.
