AMAZING NANNY AVAILABLE IN JUNE! We are so sad to say goodbye to our amazing nanny, Yangchen, but we are moving to the Philadelphia suburbs this summer. Yangchen joined us when my son was 6 months old and has been with us for almost 2 years since. She has been absolutely wonderful from the moment she walked into our lives and has truly become part of our family. Yangchen is from Bhutan and is a practicing Bhuddist so she is extremely honest, hardworking and (literally) can’t harm a fly. After interviewing 20+ candidates, I knew the moment Yangchen walked in the door she would be the perfect fit for us. She is very special and I care deeply about finding her another great family. Yangchen would be a fit for a family with a baby and/or toddlers, but she is also experienced with elementary school aged kids. She is used to juggling multiple responsibilities, loves dogs (we have one ourselves) and she is very flexible in terms of hours. She has some cousins in the US but she doesn’t have kids of her own and tends to be free to stay late or work a weekend night ocassionally. She is hoping to find a job around 45-50 hours a week but is open. She has been working for us on the Upper East Side so she already familiar with all the best baby/toddler classes and parks in this area but she is happy to travel anywhere in Manhattan or Brooklyn. Yangchen can do it all – she is not one to sit idle and is always cleaning up, cooking or doing laundry for my son when he naps. I am more than happy to speak with anyone in more detail about Yangchen. She is available to start June 10th.

Dolly has been a wonderful nanny for over two years with our family. She is incredibly reliable and sensitive to the needs of our children. My daughter is now 3 and son is 4.5 and she helped us through early stages with our daughter getting on a routine as well as the wild twos and threes era of our son and made it through! She is excellent about getting children on a solid schedule whether that may be with napping, meals, getting out the door, etc. Dolly makes connections with other nannies and finds ways to create regular play dates for the kids. Our communication has always been very open and easy. She is receptive to ideas we suggest for activities and strives to meet our requests. Dolly is extremely professional and comes with strong references before us. She created a lovely connection with our children and the laughter I hear from my daughter and Dolly as I come home in the evenings is super sweet and genuine. You have a solid professional with Dolly and will be fortunate to have her in your home. Dolly is flexible with a start date whether June 24th or later in the summer. You may contact her directly and I will be happy to share additional insights as needed.

After many loyal years as part of our family caring for my son since he was born, we are supporting Floria finding the right family who deserves her loving care. Now that our son is 8, we no longer need a full time nanny - Floria is seeking a full time position, preferably in Manhattan (downtown is well known to her) and ideally for a new born or toddler. Floria from the first time we met over 8 years ago and to this day has been prompt (actually always early), courteous and professional while at the same time providing love and support to our son. She is an experienced caregiver with past roles in a variety of family settings. Over the 8 years she has been part of our family she has been critical to our son and to two working parents. She is the most reliable person I have ever worked with (I lead a global workforce in my professional life...). She never misses work, and is never late. She is extremely flexible and accommodating. These traits are hugely important with working parents. She has always been willing to coordinate vacation at the same time as our family. Over the years, I have received unsolicited feedback from other parents and teachers about Floria’s love and devotion to our son and family. She is excellent at play dates and finding fun friends. Her next family will be fortunate to work with her.

Our nanny Triphonia is looking for work on Tuesday and Thursday mornings (7:30AM-1:30PM) and on Saturdays. Triph has been working with us for 15 years, since my youngest daughter was born, so she has taken care of children of all ages. She is extremely reliable, always shows up on time, plans playdates and trips to the park or the Botanical Gardens, and even managed my three children all by herself. Over the years, we have gotten to know Triph quite well. She goes beyond her job description because she truly cares for my children and enjoys spending time with them. For years I have been coming home to them all around the dinner table laughing and having fun. Triph loves to make friends with other kids and their nannies, and it comes naturally her since she is a gregarious and kind person. Our children would not have had as many playdates and trips around the city with friends or our beloved neighbors without Triph. Triph is always caring towards my children. My youngest child, Celia, has a habit of throwing her clothes around her room, and soon it gets too messy. Triph has affectionately dubbed her “Hurricane Celia,” which is a funny, caring, and firm way to get her to clean her room without having to be asked multiple times. Since our children can see that Triph cares for them, they trust and feel safe with her. Now, since my daughter is older, Triph works for us part time. She is available to work for a new family, and she would be a gift to have in your family. Please contact her at 917-474-8431. I am happy to serve as a reference at [email protected] and 646-599-5736.

Michelle has been our nanny for the last 2 years. She is caring, reliable and very hard working. She cared for our twin girls (6) and then also for our son (1 years old). It takes a lot to manage 3 kids and she does it effortlessly. She manages meals, pick ups, bathtime, homework, playdates, piano lessons and more. She is particularly good with young babies - my son absolutely adores her as she has been with him since birth. He jumps out of my arms for her and cries when she leaves every day. She sends pictures and videos throughout the day and checks in on the weekend to see how the kids are doing. She helped our family through a challenging year and was very accommodating in caring for our kids. She is incredibly clean - my kitchen is spotless everyday when I get home and the kids laundry is clean and folded perfectly. Our childcare needs have changed but we would love for her to find a good home!

Parent Reference

WE HIT THE NANNY LOTTERY. NOW THAT WE'RE MOVING, YOU CAN TOO... Our son Bennett is 13 months old and we found Madai through a nanny headhunting agency. Besides immediately liking her personality/ demeanor and how loving she seemed almost instantly towards our son, we liked that she was a career nanny, with multi-year experiences with multiple families (who shared rave reviews when we had calls with them). Madai is incredibly kind and loving towards our son, and we never worry about his care. She is very smart, competent and often teaches us how to adapt to the rapid succession of different child stages. We have a Nest in our home and anytime I randomly tune in I have always been very pleased (and feel lucky) with what I see-- her lovingly teaching Bennett something, reading with him, and often times her facilitating a play date. She is great about keeping herself busy cooking for him, doing laundry, and tidying up his play area during naps. Madai keeps Bennett busy and growing-- he goes outside daily- whether to music class, a play area, or a play date-- and he has multiple friends in our building that I recognize only through the many pictures she sends. It's hard for these descriptors to sound anything other than generic, but I can assure you, one of the top things of our NYC life that we will miss the most will hands down be Madai. We are very stringent with who cares for our son, and previously let two decent nannies go, because we were looking for spectacular. Madai is spectacular. We feel like we have hit the nanny lottery, and because of that, want to make sure to help Madai find a wonderful next family to work with, as we are moving halfway across the country. While I'll let her speak for herself on what she is looking for pay-wise in her next role, we pay her on the books an amount that nets out to $25/hour take-home after tax. She would prefer to remain being paid on-the-books. Madai lives in Jersey City, and so is happy to consider Manhattan or Jersey City/Hoboken/ etc! Please reach out to me and I can put you in touch!

Sandra is the whole package! She is super smart, safety-oriented, emotionally intelligent, caring, always on time, responsive, energetic, and professional. We pictured our family "growing old" with Sandra, but now we are moving cross-country and will miss her dearly. Sandra has been caring for our two children (now ages 7 and almost 4) since our son was six months old, and she adapts to our needs as the children grow. She was excellent with our infant and equally skilled as our son became a toddler and our daughter became a grade-schooler. Today Sandra runs our children's days with fun and efficiency -- including school drop offs and pick-ups, bath time, dinner, organizing play dates, running the occasional errand, and playtime. I also enjoy having her in our home and appreciate her "can-do" attitude and friendly face. We are leaving at the end of the school year, but if you need her earlier we can be flexible, so don't hesitate to text her: 347-528-5199. And good luck on your nanny search!

Our amazing nanny, Lima, started with us when our first child was 4 months old - and that was over 5.5 years ago! We had another child during that time. So she has taken care of both of our babies and helped them grow into the happy kids they are now. Lima does the kids' laundry and cooks their meals. She makes DELICIOUS, healthy food (think fresh, Mediterranean food). She loves taking them to the library, museums, parks, doing play dates, and gets down on the ground with the kids to be silly. Lima is a gentle, nurturing woman - one of those special caregivers who loves your children like you do. She texts me over the weekend to see how the kids are, if they're happy and having fun. She checks in periodically during the workday, telling me where they are, what they're doing, asking questions, and sending photos. We have lost count of how many people in our building and the kids' school have stopped us to say what a wonderful person Lima is. We don't know what we'll do without her (we've moved out of the city), but are thrilled that another family might be as lucky as we've been these last few years.

It meant a lot to us to have a nanny with this kind of energy in our home. She was very professional, on time and organized. We always appreciated coming home to a calm, happy house at the end of the day. We felt completely comfortable with Guicella taking our boys to classes and the park every day. She had our complete trust. She took initiative to search out play dates, classes, keeping our busy boys active and engaged. Guicella speaks perfect English, but we asked her to speak Spanish to the boys during the day. Fox would sing songs in Spanish and knows several Spanish words. We wish we could continue to have Guicella as part of our everyday lives, but as work circumstances have changed, our needs changed and I will be staying home with the boys.

I enthusiastically recommend Lorna Lambert as a babysitter/nanny for young children. She took care of our boy-girl twins from when they were a few months old until they were nearly six. We would happily have had her take care of them for years after that, but they were heading off to school and Lorna wanted a full-time job. Lorna was reliable, punctual—she usually showed up at least fifteen minutes early--and extremely trustworthy. I don’t think she ever took a sick day, and the children were always exactly where they were supposed to be. Much more important, she was generous and loving (she still visits our children, who are now twelve, and delights in hearing how they’re doing), highly focused on each of their individual character and quirks, and a calm teacher of how they should react in a range of circumstances, everything from being tired to facing a bully on the playground. She instilled good behavior in them by modeling it and expecting it. In many ways she showed my husband and me how to be good parents. I have no hesitations in giving Lorna my highest recommendation, and I would be happy to answer any questions about her that you might have.

Nadine has been taking care of our son Leo (now 3 years old) since he was 2 months old. She has been the most amazing nanny imaginable. Leo now speaks fluent French and English and is very well mannered and is a great sleeper and has a wonderful sense of humor, all due to her. Leo is starting school and we would love to help her find a great family. She is from Paris and speaks French in a classic French accent (as does our son). Manhattan families are preferred but she will travel into the boroughs for the right job. We cannot stress how fantastic she is and we will hopefully remain friends with her years to come.

Guitrie has been a loving, attentive caregiver to our children for 15 years. She began working for our family when our daughter was born, and greeted our son on his first day home from the hospital. Now that the children are 13 and 15, we have no further need of her full-time services. Guitrie is dependable, on-time and organized, effectively monitoring the various activities of each of the children to assure they were where they needed to be, and picked up promptly. As infants, Guitire helped maintain sleep schedules, feeding times, outings and supported any of our parenting requests. As our children grew, Guitrie would bring them to activities, preschool, birthday parties, and host playdates for their friends. She would cook a healthy dinner (including managing around food allergies) , assure attention to homework, and stay late on occasional evenings, as needed. We are sad we no longer need Guitrie, and look forward to helping her find another family. Ideally, she is looking in Manhattan, on the east side, and would love to care for infants. Please contact Guitrie directly with inquires by phone or email.

Parent Reference

Vivienne is a strong, loving, intelligent and thoughtful woman with wonderful, successful adult children of her own. She's got a great deal of energy, yet a very subdued and relaxed manner. At that very unsure time after our little guy was born, from the Moment in our interview with her when she asked to hold him and took him into her arms, my husband and I looked at each other and knew Immediately that she would provide him with tremendous care, and we couldn't have been more fortunate than to have her help raise our son. Viv is not someone who needs to learn "on-the-job"...she's beyond experienced and extremely knowledgeable about children's developing needs each step of the way, including the growing need for self-reliance. This is not at all to say she's not open and flexible: at his first birthday our son was diagnosed with developmental delays, so Vivienne energetically and enthusiastically joined us on the wild and wacky road of Early Intervention (PT, OT, Speech therapy, psychotherapy) and was a true well of strength and support. She was with us every step of the way, up through becoming a happy 5th grade High Honors Dean's List student at a very reputable Manhattan private school, where he continues to thrive. As nurturing as she'd always been, she also knew when to step back and allow him to grow and become a strong and independent young guy. She's spent the last couple of years helping to raise her own new grandchildren, and now is eager to return to her beloved NYC and resume her "magic". She's still very much a treasured part of our lives, regularly sharing her warmth and humor and great spirit. I'd be more than happy to answer any questions from anyone lucky enough to have Viv enter their family's life...

I can't possibly say enough good things about our nanny Joy! She has simply been a blessing for us. She does everything a nanny is supposed to day to day, but she does so much more than that. She loves and cares for my kids and my family, like we are her own! She truly is part of our family, and my kids and I simply love her! Here are some additional details. Please contact me if interested, and I can tell you more about her: 1. Joy has been with us for 4 years. My kids are older now, and I don’t need full-time hours anymore, which is why I am trying to help her find a new family. In previous jobs, she has always been with other families for long periods of times. I hired her based on glowing recommendations she got from the other families 2. We live in Bronxville (Southern Westchester) and she lives in Mount Vernon. Her preference is to stay in Southern Westchester, but she is open to go to CT, or Northern Westchester as well. She is looking for a June start date 3. Joy is very smart, and takes learning very seriously. She taught my son how to read and write at the age of 3, and continues to teach my kids on a daily basis. She also does my son’s homework with him every day, and does a phenomenal job at that! Even his teachers have complemented her! 4. She is great with all age groups! She has been with my daughter since she was a newborn, and took outstanding taking care of her as an infant. I was able to come back to work in peace knowing my daughter was in such great hands! 5. She helps out with anything & everything I need. Sometimes, I don’t even have to ask. She sees I don’t have dinner made, and goes out of her way to feed us, even though this is not part of her job 6. If we ever need her to do extra hours, she has never said no 7. She does drive, and has for other families, but we have not required her to 8. She has an innate ability to build connections with people. She is still in touch with all the families she has worked with, and still babysits for many of them on the weekends 9. She is proactive in arranging play dates and other plans for my kids to keep them busy 10. She is NEVER late, has NEVER missed a day of work, and is super conscientious!

Teddy and his brother James (8) have been grateful beneficiaries of Juliah’s calming and sure-handed presence. From the time they were in diapers to the present day - busy with school activities and sports -Juliah has been an extremely positive influence in their lives. They love her dearly. Juliah is kind, extremely patient and resourceful. She does many things well: She keeps a very tidy house; she prepares meals and snacks; she does laundry; she anticipates problems; she is always on time, and she is healthy! (In all these years she has called in sick maybe twice). We highly recommend Juliah as a caregiver. She has given us several years of terrific, worry-free service, and we know she will provide another family the same quality and assurance.

Tracy made having an infant seem a little more manageable. Her 16+ years of experience made her invaluable when it came to figuring out all the things my little guy needed: bottles, sterilizers, bibs, bath tubs, strollers, etc. She helped us understand how to keep our son from getting sick and how to keep him and his things clean. She also sleep trained our son for daytime naps and got him on a more predictable schedule. She accompanied me and my husband to endless pediatrician appointments. She helped us get through my son’s food intolerance and our concern about his possible tongue tie. She is now helping us start on solids. My son adores Tracy and lights up when he sees her in the morning. She knows how to make him laugh and is sometimes the only person who can figure out what’s bothering him. She is great at finding activities for him that help him develop physically and mentally. She talks to him and they enjoy each other’s company. I do not know what we will do without her when we move to D.C.

She introduced solids to my daughter, made all of their meals, and always ensured they ate a balanced meal. Our family situation has changed and we were looking for a part-time live-in, otherwise she would still be with us. She is one of a kind.

Nana is loving, dependable, nurturing, and hardworking. She truly cares deeply for our son. She is very creative and always coming up with fun activities for them - exploring new parks in our neighborhood, meeting new friends and organizing playdates, and fun arts and crafts. Another amazing thing about Nana is that she cooks for our son. Since both my husband and I work and do not have much time to cook, this is incredibly helpful. Nana is also the most reliable and dependable person I have ever worked with. In three years, she has never taken a sick day and is always on time (in fact, early) and never has an issue staying late if we are delayed at work.

AN HONEST, WARM, RECOMMENDATION FOR MARIA SAWH My nanny of 4 years, Maria Sawh, is looking for a F/T job (Mon-Fri 45-50 hrs/week) in Manhattan, Queens or Brooklyn. Maria started with my family when my son was only 2.5 and now that my son is 4 years old our needs have changed. We have employed her for an entire year longer than we truly needed her because she was so essential to our family! Maria is incredibly warm and nurturing. She is also extremely hardworking, honest and reliable. We’ve trusted her implicitly to watch our son when he was an infant and now to accompany him to/from school, extracurricular and play dates around Manhattan. She’s also spent the weekend taking care of him while my husband and I traveled. Maria is also extremely efficient and organized. She often cooks or gets lunch/dinner for my son in addition to watching him closely - since he’s very energetic! She also has always kept my house tidy, cleaned my son’s laundry twice a week and sometimes did laundry for our whole family. The best thing about Maria is that she always took my son out to explore and play outside in nice weather and frequently coordinated play dates around the neighborhood so my son grew up with an immediate network of friends - this has also helped me find friends and new activities as my son has grown. We strongly recommend Maria and I welcome your questions! You can contact Maria directly at Tel: +1 (718) 717-4278 to arrange an interview.

Our previous nanny/caregiver is seeking a position as a nanny/ caregiver. Jackie started working for us as a nanny in 2004. I can only say nice things about Jackie as she was a terrific nanny and eventually a loving caregiver. She worked for my daughter, who was an Emergency Room physician. My daughter had two children who were four or five months and two years old when Jackie started to work with them. Jackie was able to meet my daughter’s high expectations in caring for her children. She provided loving care and sometimes they would pout when it was time for Jackie to go home! Some of Jackie’s responsibilities included providing breakfast and/or lunch for the babies. Very often she would make decisions based on the food available and the boys likes and dislikes at a particular time. Some days, it would involve two different meals at the same time! It didn’t matter to her as long as the boys were happy. She knew about helping a child who might be choking on food. That was very important to my daughter. She would wash and dress the boys for either playtime or naps, often she would help them brush their teeth and wash up. The youngest was clearly still in diapers and that was never a problem nor did he ever have diaper rash. He was always clean and fresh. She would bathe the children if my daughter was working night shift. My daughter was very particular about the cleanliness of her children and insisted that people wash their hands when they came into the house. The boys were never bored. They loved spending time with Jackie. If there was not a scheduled playdate, Jackie would take the boys to the park and make sure that they were playing with appropriately-aged children. At home, the television was not on. Jackie read to the boys, played with them building Legos or blocks, and told them lovely stories about how she grew up with a twin sister. That was ‘very neat’ for the boys to imagine two of Jackie growing up. Jackie loved them as much as they loved her! It was clear to all that knew their relationship. Jackie cared for the boys as a nanny during the period of years that my daughter was able to work. Unfortunately, she also was diagnosed with cancer when her children were quite young and recently passed away after a 12-year battle with it. Her children were quite young when she was diagnosed, eight months and 2 ½ years old. So, Jackie was our ‘go-to’ nanny during this time and worked for her many years. To-date, we have known Jackie some 14 or 15 years. Jackie has received her Certification as a Home Health Assistant. In addition, she is also certified in CPR for both infants and adults. We always felt comfortable leaving the children with Jackie. The children loved and respected Jackie. How could they not; she was kind, loving and a teacher to them. She took her responsibilities toward them seriously. Jackie is a ‘beyond’ kind and loving person. So, I wanted to write this recommendation for Jackie not only because she asked me to, but because I just think that Jackie is a ‘one of a kind’ person. She is someone to be trusted and respected.

Nanda has been a full time caregiver for two children (boy - 8 years, girl - 5 years) for the last 4.5 years. She has worked full time with us and prior to us- with another family in our building with two children for 5 plus years. Nanda is experienced, reliable, punctual, caring and understands the need for dependable help. We have always been full time working parents and having the dependability of Nanda’s care with our family has been invaluable and unwavering. Given that our children are now in school full time, the hours are shifting and our needs have changed. We provide our highest recommendation for Nanda in finding a new family to work with. She is an asset to any family. An ideal position would be on UWS but Nanda is flexible. Nanda has a calm disposition under all circumstances and understands parent needs, children varying schedules, and parent schedules/travel. Nanda helps arrange playdates, helped bring our children to doctor appointments, etc. She respects the privacy of the family as well. She has a family of her own that are helpful as well. Nanda has never been late, is a professional, and understands the role of a full time nanny. We give our highest recommendation and can provide another family reference as well.

Sandra has been caregiver for our son and daughter for over 12 years, and started with our family when our firstborn was 3 months old. She is incredibly dedicated, responsible and trustworthy - she has rarely missed a day in over a decade and makes every effort to stay late or cover on days when we needed extra help. Most importantly, she is a wonderful blend of strength, order and warmth - she manages schedules across two busy children's lives, and does so with a warmth and joy that is recognized and respected within our community. In their younger years, Sandra was our kids' treasured companion and she would play, read, draw, and take them on adventures to the museum or library. Our son and daughter have grown into thoughtful, loving children and I give Sandra great credit for her part in that.

I am happy to recommend Beverly as a caregiver. Beverly worked in our home for approximately one and a half years, caring for our daughter from age 6 months to 2 years. I recommend Beverly for several reasons. First, she is punctual and dependable. I never had to worry about Beverly being on time in the mornings, and she was always willing to stay late when my husband and I had later work commitments. We also relied on Beverly on weekends when we had emergencies, and I always knew I could count on her. Second, Beverly is incredibly patient, which is essential in caring for infants and toddlers. Nothing seemed to phase her, and she was able to respond to our daughter calmly in all situations. Third, Beverly went out of her way to facilitate play dates for our daughter. I loved that our daughter had frequent interaction with other children her age, and my husband and I enjoyed developing relationships with other parents in our neighborhood as well. Fourth, she communicated well throughout our time together, and specifically, she sent frequent daily updates and pictures of my daughter. Lastly, Beverly genuinely loves the children she cares for. My daughter was excited when Beverly arrived in the mornings and enjoyed spending her day with her.

Parent Reference

We are relocating our family from NYC to Canada, and as a result our much-loved nanny Shobah is looking for a new full-time opportunity. We cannot recommend her highly enough. Shobah has been our full-time nanny for the past two-and-a-half years, helping to raise our boys, ages 3 and 1. We feel very lucky to have been able to entrust the care and development of our children to her. Our boys love her dearly, and she reciprocates that love in kind. Shobah is *always* extremely attentive and focused on minding the boys with positive energy and caring devotion. She is a whirlwind of positivity and professionalism in our lives, from the first moment she arrives in the morning to when she leaves at the end of the day. In addition to keeping our children active, engaged and well-loved throughout the day, Shobah happily prepares their meals, does their laundry, and will do light groceries and tidying as necessary. Amidst the chaos of handling 2 young boys, she finds a way to keep everything running smoothly and we are always grateful to come home to a ship-shape house. A US citizen, Shobah has worked as a nanny for 30+ years. Prior to our family, Shobah worked for another family in the Upper West Side for 13 years, helping to raise their two children from newborn through to teenagehood. She is friendly, trustworthy, discrete, communicates well, and has been flexible to help accommodate our family’s needs over the years. Loyal and dependable by nature, Shobah favors an arrangement with a family for whom she could have a long-term opportunity. Shobah quickly established herself as part of our family, and we are tremendously sad to be severing the deep bonds that have developed with our children. Shobah is that nanny that we would describe as “the best of the best” out there, and we want to help her find a lucky new family for whom she can devote her loving care and energetic personality in a full-time capacity. Shobah has been working in the Upper West Side for almost 20 years, and would be happy to either stay in the UWS or consider a neighborhood in Brooklyn. Please get in touch with us if you’d like to learn more about her, or know any friends or colleagues who may be interested. Mat & Fiona Balez Upper West Side

Beverly has 25+ years of nanny experience and cared for our newborn son, Scott for one year until we moved away a month ago. We were very devastated to leave because she simply was the best! As a first-time mom, I really appreciated Beverly’s knowledge about infants because she taught me everything I needed to know and she immediately bonded with Scott. She took impeccable care of him and went the extra mile to make our lives easier. She was excellent at putting Scott on a schedule for playing, eating, bathing and sleeping resulting in a very happy baby! She’s flexible and trustworthy but also very kind, respectful and honest. In addition to constantly interacting with Scott, she kept my house unbelievably clean & does the best laundry I’ve ever seen. She would be a blessing for any family!

Joann is warm, caring, responsible, reliable and proactive. My girls love her and we give her credit for helping to shape them. Joann takes great pride in her work. Even after all of these years, I still receive unsolicited feedback from other parents and teachers telling me how wonderful she is. She is looking for a full time job. We would be delighted to keep her for an afternoon or two if that works for her new family. Ideally for us, she would be on the Upper East Side so we could at least have dinner with her once a week, but she's open to positions in other areas too. She is an amazing babysitter.
