She is very understanding and has been willing to stay late even last minute. Deki is an incredibly patient (able to handle our strong-willed daughter!), warm, and loving person. She has been amazing, helping us with the newborn phases and now through the limit-testing toddler phase, with an incredibly calm approach and never losing her cool. Deki is rarely on her phone and is very present with the kids, often playing puzzles, doing art projects or helping them with the alphabet. She is also very good about taking the kids outside to the playground, whenever the weather permits, or on playdates. She is very tidy, helping to keep the house neat in addition to cooking the kids’ meals. She also helps with grocery shopping and other errands. We are moving to California and are so sad to leave her, but we know that she will be a great addition to a new family. Please feel free to directly contact Deki at 929-224-6933.

Parent Reference

Our nanny Tita is one of a kind but sadly we have to say goodbye to her because we’re leaving the city. She’s been with us for just under a year and I seriously can’t imagine a better nanny for our son Noah. She started taking care of him when he was just 4 months and from the get go she has been a loving, warm addition to our family. Professionally, she is 100% committed to Noah and takes her role very seriously. Personally, she’s extremely sweet and down to earth. She fills our apartment with so much positive energy that our son’s face lights up each morning when she arrives. For the entire 8 hours she’s with him every day, she gives him her complete and total undivided attention. She’s constantly reading to him, practicing language skills, setting up play dates and finding the best baby classes in the area for his development. Even when he’s napping, she’s busy planning activities, classes and games for him! She’s so focused on caring for him that I‘ve never even seen her check her phone once while taking care of him. Sadly our new home will be too far for her to commute so we really want to do our best to help her get settled with an amazing family! Tita has over 12 years experience caring for babies, infants and young children. She’s a gem and her start date is flexible. Please email me if you need any more info. [email protected]

She has built an amazing relationship with each of my kids. We were sad to part ways due to a change in family situation, but are looking to help her find a new family. Meera worked a lot of hours for us given that my husband and I live in Long Island and work in Manhattan/NJ. She would arrive before 7am and stay late, but always made sure to keep the kids occupied, cook for the kids, do light cleaning, maintain the house, etc. She would often cook for us as well (btw - amaaaaaaazing cook). Please do reach out if interested. She would love to find another full time job in Long Island.

Our wonderful nanny Merline is looking for a full-time (35 hours or more) job in Brooklyn or lower Manhattan starting in September. My kids adore her, and we are heartbroken to see her go, but my youngest will now be in school, and we can't give Merline the hours she needs. She has worked with us for almost 4 years, since my daughter was an infant. She was amazing with the baby and a huge help in getting her to nap, take a bottle, eat solids, etc. My daughter is now almost 4 years old, and they are very attached to one another. Merline has been equally great with my son, who is now 6 1/2. She plans age-appropriate activities for them, arranges play dates, cooks dinner, cleans up, takes them and picks them up from school and activities, and has even done a couple of overnights for us. She is nurturing, warm, and a lovely, sensitive person. I don't think she has ever been late or missed a day of work, except maybe one time when she was sick. She is the most reliable person I've ever had take care of our kids, and has always been available for us. Please contact her directly at 917-771-2564 (text is fine), and call or email me if you'd like to speak.

Parent Reference

After sixteen years it’s time for our beloved nanny, Betty, to move on to another lucky family. She came to us when my older son was one year old and has cared for our younger son since birth. Betty is loving, energetic, trustworthy and reliable. Never late and very rarely sick, Betty is also very flexible, almost always available to come early, stay late, or work weekends. When they were younger, Betty kept my boys on a regular schedule -- preparing healthy meals, giving them their baths and getting them ready for bed each day. (Working parents will especially appreciate coming home to pajama-clad children ready for stories, an empty kitchen sink, and toys stowed away!) Betty always took charge of setting up playdates, going to music classes, etc. She has also vacationed with us and stayed with the boys over occasional weekends. Her ideal family would have a newborn and plan to keep her on long term. She would love to “grow up” with a new family. Betty is a US citizen, is CPR certified (recently renewed) and has a NY driver’s license. In a nutshell, Betty is a gem, and any family would be lucky to have her.

Now a toddler, they have built the most incredible bond together, it’s exactly what you want in a caregiver. She walks in everyday with a smile on her face, and he greets her with the same in return. Marie is always punctual and very communicative. She believes in consistency and maintaining a set schedule to keep our son on his routine. She sets up play dates almost daily, and does a great job networking with other nannies in the area. Everyday we receive pictures of him doing something new, keeping him engaged and giving him great experience/exposure to the outside world. Marie also helps out with light cleaning, laundry and cooks meals. Above all else, she’s been so loyal to our family and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

Parent Reference

Tay is amazing! She is full of life and energy and she genuinely loves children! Tay was the first nanny we ever had and we were a bit anxious and nervous about finding someone who we could trust and would care for our children as we would. When Tay walked into our life our twins were 3 months old and our son was 9. Tay jumped right in with the upmost patience and love. She handled our 3 month old twins with a calm and understanding spirit and still had energy to hang out with our oldest when he got home from school. Tay enjoyed playing board games with our oldest as well as helped him with homework. During the day Tay would venture out to parks, libraries, museums and the zoo with twins just to get them out the house.While home with the twins, Tay prepared all meals (steamed veggies and puréed) and took care of all laundry for the twins. She made sure the home remained as tidy as possibly by picking up toys and straightening up after play time. Tay also played a huge role in the twins early childhood development. By age 1 and a half, Tay had taught the twins how to count to 25, say their ABC’s as well as recognize all of their shapes. When our twins started pre-school at age 2, they were actually ahead of the class! Tay is a leader in her own right. She has an amazing outgoing personality, is kind, respectful, very responsible, heirs on the side of caution and makes smart choices. Overall Tay is a great girl with a solid moral ethical foundation who genuinely loves children. We are so grateful for Tay’s love and involvement in our children’s lives.

I'm hoping to help find our amazing nanny of over 7 yrs, Michelle, a new wonderful family to work with. Michelle has been an integral part of our family and has helped us nurture, grow and care for our two children over the last 7 years. Prior to working with us, Michelle also spent time working for another family for equally as many years. We are sad that we no longer need Michelle to work with us now that our kids are both in school full time and we sincerely hope we find her a new wonderful employer. Michelle is looking for full-time work but is open to part-time that is fulfilling. Michelle is professional, honest, energetic, and beyond trustworthy. She has worked with us since our older daughter was 4 months old and was wonderful at balancing the children's needs when they were babies - and has been equally good at balancing the logistics of kids at different schools and with different activities. Our children adore and respect Michelle - they laugh and dance and cuddle with her, but also listen to and follow her rules. She has reinforce the things that matter to us as parents and also taught the kids to navigate social dynamics when she has seen certain issues arise at the playground. In addition to be a highly experienced and loving childcare provider, Michelle has also raised 3 children of her own. I am very happy to chat with you about our experience with Michelle. We are so thankful that Michelle has been in our lives and know you will be too. Thank you!!!

I am posting here for our former nanny, Menuka, who is looking to find a good family to work with fulltime. Menuka has been with us in downtown Brooklyn for the past 8 years but now that our daughters, 6 and 8, are in school fulltime and I am working a bit less, we don’t need a fulltime sitter. Menuka has loved our daughters like family and we have gotten to know her family – 3 adult professionals – as well. She is especially loving with young children, happy to snuggle them, run around, get on the floor and play, take them to the park or even do yoga. As they got older she was great at arranging playdates, taking them to classes and providing simple meals for them. She is also very neat and happy to help with the kids’ laundry and light cleaning around the house. She speaks and understands English though her native language is Nepali and she speaks Hindi as well. Her Hindi and Nepali would likely be a true asset to a family that speaks either of those languages. We are happy to speak further with anyone who is interested. She will always have a special place in our daughters’ hearts.

Sieana has worked with me from 2008. She has been a great addition to the family. She created a fun, safe and loved filled environment for my children while providing much experience and knowledge that was invaluable to my husband and me. Sieana started out as my baby nurse with my 3 month old and transitioned into Nanny as the years went by. She assists the kids with homework, school projects, arts and crafts, attends to them when they are sick, keeps them entertained and also cooks the most delicious meals for them and sometimes for the whole family. My oldest is now 12 and youngest 6 so Sieana now works part time but is looking for full time employment, which is why we have to sadly see her go. To say that Sieana has been a blessing to our lives is an understatement. The kids adore her as do my husband and I and she will be tremendously missed. She will be a valuable attribute to any family.

Our nanny came to us at a very difficult time. On top of being a first time mom, I had a challenging pregnancy and delivery and was absolutely NOT ready to return to work, therefore she had (what I imagine) was a tall order at hand --newborn + nervous mom. I can say with assurance that she handled this challenge masterfully. Not only did she do everything in her power to help me feel comfortable, she stepped in and offered our daughter the type of care that I had hoped for/expected. She is loving and engaging with our child and she is an open communicator. Anything that I request be modified for our daughter she does without question and yet she's honest and gentle with recommendations, which I truly needed as a first time mom! She is timely, reliable and flexible - we are truly saddened by the fact that our needs have changed. Our daughter has flourished under her care (she is now 16 months old!) and we are grateful that both my husband and I can work demanding jobs without pressure or worry that our daughter isn't being offered the best care. Without hesitation, both my husband and I will gladly provide a recommendation.

She is wonderful with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. She is incredibly kind and calm and the kids love her dearly (she is also young and energetic enough to keep up with them!) She watched them full-time in our home on the UWS and then Harlem for years and was great about seeking out story times and activities, arranging play dates with other kids, and taking them to and from classes. She took care of everything related to the kids (meals, laundry, changing sheets, cleaning bedroom and playroom) and always left our home in great shape when we returned home. If you want to know what your children are in great hands and everything will be taken care of, I highly recommend her!

Lorna Simon was our nanny for over six years. We first met Lorna in 2012, when our daughter (now six) was 1 month old. Lorna first spent weekends with us, and by the time Juliet was 2 months old, she had accepted a position as full-time nanny. In 2015, our son, Miles was born, and Lorna couldn’t have been more excited for the new baby. Our children are getting older, and they now have full time school schedules, and a full-time nanny position no longer worked for our family, which is why Lorna is now available again, on a part-time basis (she will be with us from 3pm on in the afternoons). Lorna has the finest character; she is loving, kind, generous with her time, and a truly good person. She is incredibly knowledgeable about babies, and during the early months for both Juliet and Miles she helped us carefully track diaries of when they had dirty diapers, and feeding schedules. When we first met Lorna I was in the incredibly lucky position of having her recommended to me by my own childhood nanny, and so from day 1 I never had any doubts about her reliability or kindness when leaving my children with her. But while that “family” connection was meaningful, it was also unnecessary, as the way that Lorna looked after our children was exceptional, and my husband I trusted her implicitly. As our kids got older, Lorna was always ready to play board games with them, or oversee art projects. She’s also very social, and our children’s social life was 20% my setting up playdates, and 80% Lorna befriending other nannies — and moms. Lorna was always willing to take Juliet or Miles to a park or someone’s home, or host at ours, as the case might have been. She was always wonderful in making sure that if there was an opportunity for a playdate or for extra time with other children in the park, our kids were part of the fun. Lorna is also an amazing cook, and the children had great, healthful meals every day. While the children were young, Lorna had always lightly tidied the house and been responsible for their rooms and cleaning, but in her usually low-key style, she was open to adapting as needs shifted. In the recent years, as school schedules have lengthened, Lorna has been very flexible in terms of taking on housekeeping work for us, so that we could extend her tenure with our family. Lorna truly delights in babies and little children, and any family she works with will be lucky to have such a kind, loving, trustworthy person as part of their home. I’m available to speak, should you like that. I may be reached at 917.378.2817 or at [email protected]

From the beginning, Sharon has been a true professional - amazingly patient, reliable, and trustworthy (in 7 yrs, she's never missed a day of work!). She was excellent at getting our boys on a sleeping/feeding schedule and she taught us so much about all aspects of infant/toddler care. We especially appreciated her ability to deal with the unexpected - one of our boys has asthma and a nut allergy and she's been able to care for his needs appropriately in a calm, focused way. She is very playful, loving, and funny, always prepared to meet our children where they are no matter the day or their mood. At the same time, she gently guides them to stick to a healthy routine - everyday, we come home from work to find them happily fed, bathed, homework complete, dressed in their pjs, and giggling with Sharon as they play and read together on the floor. Most importantly, she not only supports our goal of raising empathic, kindhearted little humans, she's taught them through her own example by always responding to our boys with warmth and compassion. We will very much miss having Sharon as part of our family but our tremendous loss could be your gain. Sharon is looking for a full time position. We would love to help her transition to her next family!

Odelle was nanny to our five-year-old daughter for three years (Fall 2016 through Summer 2019). In those three years, Odelle was a critical part of our family. She looked after our girl lovingly, displaying unflappable patience and providing an excellent level of care. During the first of those three years, Odelle was primary caregiver during the week, working long days from 8am to 6pm. In the second and third years, she did pick up from half-day nursery school and provided care till 7pm. Odelle arranged playdates with our neighbors and with classmates, and she is responsible for fostering some of our child's closest friendships. She orchestrated entertainment and enrichment for the day (e.g., trips to the park, to the bookstore, to our building’s play room). We could always count on Odelle preparing healthy meals, encouraging good manners, and helping keep clothes clean, toys organized, and the house tidy. Odelle is trustworthy and generous. On multiple occasions when we had to attend weddings that were not child-friendly, and we arranged for our girl to spend the weekend with Odelle and her family. The kiddo had a blast and became quite fond of Odelle’s family. We are extremely grateful to have had Odelle as a partner for these three years, and we are confident that any family would appreciate her mix of talent, dependability, and care for children. We certainly did.

Baby/Child Whisperer! Our son was about 2 months old when our search for a full time nanny began. As a first time mother, the thought of finding someone I could completely trust with my newborn was daunting and filled me with much anxiety and worry. I interviewed many nanny prospects who were well qualified and experienced. But when I met Tashi, I knew within the first few minutes that she was the right one for our family. We connected right away and my worries fell away immediately. It was a big leap of faith, but I knew that with her experience (she worked with one family in San Francisco for 8 years before moving to NYC and working with our family) and calm presence, she was the right person to care for our son. I called my husband soon after meeting Tashi, so she could go to our home to meet him and our baby that same day. After just speaking to her for a short while, my husband also knew that she was the “one”. Watching her interact with our infant son so lovingly sealed the deal. We hired Tashi on the spot. I saw how wonderful she was with our infant son over the next few weeks before I returned to work, constantly cooing at him and caring for him so lovingly and with such ease. It was so comforting to know that our son was in the very best hands when I returned to work. Almost 7 years later, I am thankful each day for Tashi coming into her our lives and being part of our family. Not only has she more than lived up to our child care expectations, she is a wonderful friend and confidante. She strikes the perfect balance of firmness and tenderness in providing care. My husband and I have often called Tashi the “baby whisperer” and “child whisperer”. She has been fully invested in every stage of development of our son, including socialization and has always stressed the importance of being kind and polite to others. Tashi’s patience is immeasurable. Our son had some reflux issues as a newborn and bottle feedings usually took more than an hour per sitting. I always marveled at Tashi’s patience and understanding during this phase and she has continued to show this level of patience every day since. And once our son began to eat solid foods, Tashi prepared delicious, flavorful, healthy and diverse purees that our son enjoyed. We credit this early introduction to different and varied flavors, to helping our son appreciate a wide variety of foods and not be too picky. Tashi is loyal, punctual, hard-working, reliable, and enthusiastic. We have always been able to count on Tashi to get our son to his preschool, kindergarten classes and various extracurricular classes on time, as well as to tirelessly coordinate playdates at friends’ homes, the park, the zoo, museums, etc. Besides preparing yummy meals for our son, she has done his dishes and laundry with care, and we could always count on her to tidy-up his toys, playroom and bedroom (and teach him to do so as he has gotten older). Quite simply, Tashi has cared for, protected and loved our son as she would her own. She is the warmest person you will meet, and is also the most patient and dedicated. Her kindness is matched with a fun, energetic and effervescent personality. All of our son’s friends immediately gravitate toward her. Family, friends, classmates’ parents, school staff, neighbors, and strangers, alike have constantly commented to us about how great and special of a nanny Tashi is, with her excellent care, her obvious love for our son and her natural ability to draw other people in. With Tashi’s outgoing personality, she met many other wonderful nannies in the neighborhood within a few weeks of starting with us. Whether it was in a baby-and-me class, the park or even in the grocery store, she was always making connections on our son’s behalf. Without our asking, she sought out “like-minded”, kind nannies caring for similarly-aged infants and quickly began to set up playdates for our son. To this day, our son’s “baby friends” (from when he was just 3-months old) are still his best friends. She is the nanny you will spot in the park, running around, playing with the children and making them laugh. We are truly saddened that it is time for us to part ways with Tashi, as our son is now in school and in after school classes/extracurricular activities for most of the day. We are hoping to help Tashi find a new family that she can offer her wonderful gifts to for many years to come and grow with long term. We are certain that you will feel as blessed as we have to have had her as the most amazing partner in parenting. She is looking to work around 50 hours a week in Manhattan. Please do reach out and email me at [email protected] if you or someone you know is looking to hire an amazing nanny! I would also be more than happy to speak with you further.

Parent Reference

Our wonderful nanny, Veronica, has often described us as a team working together to raise our children into amazing, good humans. If this is true (and it is), she is 100 percent our MVP. I had no way of understanding when we hired her the ways in which she would transform our home for the better. She is one of the most caring and thoughtful people I have had the benefit of knowing. We can really feel her love and concern for our children, and she has been fantastic with them at every stage from infancy through first grade over the past several years. They love her dearly, and if you ask them who is in their family, they will always include her. Veronica joined us as I exited my second maternity leave, when our older child was two years old and our younger child was just three and half months old. As most working moms know, it is no easy task to return to work. With that said, there is nothing in the world worth more than the immense peace of mind provided by knowing that your children are in excellent hands in your absence, and it is even more wonderful to know that they are with someone inserting fun, learning, and affection into their days. You will not find a more intelligent, poised, mature, reliable, fun, observant, hard-working, and loving nanny out there. She is loaded with wisdom on all things child rearing (and, honestly, in general), and I trust her and her judgment totally and completely. She also knew exactly what I needed and longed for as a working mom, sending me plenty of photos/videos and even keeping a leather-bound book of sweet and funny anecdotes from their days (in addition to the typical log of eating/sleeping/diaper changes). She has connected not only our children—but us as parents—to other families in the area with whom I believe we will be lifelong family friends. I was astounded at how quickly she transcended the nanny cliques that can exist here and became instantly friendly with nannies across all cultures and age groups. In addition to taking our children on consistent play dates with other children of like ages, she has constantly come up with fun activities to take them to and to engage them in. She has become a complete expert in all of the playgrounds and activities for babies/children across the city. She has also been great at guiding our children through developmental milestones. It is also not uncommon for us to return after work to our apartment, with it in an impossibly clean state and her playing with one of the boys on the floor. We have also relied on her to take the children to the pediatrician many times and to countless other appointments across the city. As a bonus, she is an excellent cook, who knows how to make delicious yet healthy meals for your kids that they will actually eat. She is certified in First Aid and infant CPR ( I updated my certification alongside her), and she has substantial experience as a nanny. She was with her previous family for 9 years (in Tribeca and Murray Hill), and the mother in that family spoke only glowingly of her when we talked. With both of our children in school full-time, we now want nothing more than to find her a wonderful family who will appreciate her as much as we have. She would prefer to find a family with an infant and to work Monday through Friday as early as you need but generally only until 5 p.m. (barring special circumstances). Veronica will be with our family through the end of 2019, having graciously agreed to stay with us full-time while our youngest acclimates to full-time Pre-K at his big brother's school. While it will genuinely be a painful transition for us to lose her from our daily lives, we are excited for the next family who gets to benefit from the great enthusiasm and warmth that she puts into looking after the children under her care. She is a truly special person whom you won’t regret bringing into your life if you hire her, and I’m happy to speak in further detail about her qualifications and wonderful attributes should you desire.

Our son had a nanny who was absolutely amazing, kind, caring, sweet, and patient: the ultimate super nanny. Unfortunately, we are no longer in need of her services. We will be moving, but fortunately for you she is available starting this month. She helped my son grow from 4 months to 2 years old, playing, teaching and taking him to the weekly classes. She was great with our son when he was a small baby and great with him now as an active toddler. As soon as she started, she connected with other nannies in the area, and gave my son friends to grow and play with at classes, play dates, and parks. She has taught him many school skills including the alphabet and numbers, but also how to sit and pay attention in class, follow directions and play with other children. My son has been a picky eater since day one, and she has helped us work with him to eat healthy balanced meals. Since we both work full time, it is peace of mind to have our son stay with someone we trust. I get private messages on Facebook and stopped at stores by people who recognize our son and tell us what a great job our nanny is doing and how much she cares for him.

About our current nanny - Shanta is not a nanny, she is a second mom to your child. There are some people who you meet and you just know they are the right person for you. She is one of them. When I met her, I instantly knew that there is no one else who can watch my daughter better than her. She is calm, composed, warm, affectionate, transparent and giving. From day 1 she has opened the door to her heart for our daughter since she was about a year old Shanta has cared for her over past several months from the time she was an infant. She has become so close to us that we are deeply regretting to lose her. About our daughter - Just like everyone else she is a baby who has several needs! You really need all eyes and all hands on the deck and 100% of your time, attention and love. Shanta was able to provide all of that. What I like about her most is her patience, and dedication and how tactfully she handles my daughter. She makes everything fun for her! Even as a mom I could not do this. She is always taking her out to the parks, on walks, singing and playing and reading to her. My daughter believe me is a tough one. She has her moments and Shanta very calmly and very softly handles her without even flinching. She laughs it off and makes her laugh too! If you are looking for a nanny, you should just talk to me, there is so much I can write, but I do not want to flood all that here. I am listing some attributes, that I found golden in my nanny search. I am a working mom so I am out pretty much all day, so I wanted the best care for my daughter, and I think I hit jackpot when I met her. Here are some things you should know about why you should hire Shanta 1. She is ALWAYS, ALWAYS on time, if not 5-10 mins early. 2. She is accountable. Everything you tell her she listens, remembers and executes. 3. She maintained a diary of all events including flood/snacks/nap log for me which was very helpful for me to track her daily nutrition etc. 4. She loves a clean home. She has always left my home sparkling clean. everything is in order. 5. She organizes my daughters stuff so well. Even I can never do it. 6. She is not on her Phone. She is very dedicated when she is with my daughter. 7. She makes excellent baby food and sometimes when she made food for us, it was yummy. In general she always cooked enough that lasted all our family meals. 8. She does not take much time off or even a sick day! One time she hurt herself by accident and she came in, and despite us asking her to go home, she stayed. 9. She can be trusted, with your eyes closed. I am truly very sad to lose her and I do not think I would ever find a nanny this good for my daughter. I really hope and pray she finds a great home in her next job! Please email or message/call me if you have other questions. Best, Ankita

Ann is a one of a kind nanny that has a real gift for caring for newborns, including 15+ years experience with twins! We are the 3rd long-term family with twins that Ann has been a part of (in which she remained full-time for 5+ years with each family). Ann has been with our family for over 8 years and our 3 children (twins, singleton) have now grown up and are out of the house the majority day. Ann is a caring, thoughtful, honest, hard-working, good natured person who is wonderful with children and very generous with her help with both the children and around the house. She loves the outdoors and will pack up water, snacks, lunches and spend hours in the park or pool with the kids or just walking around the neighborhood. She is very personable and makes friends easily with other parents and caregivers which is helpful for play-dates and such. She is a good sport and loves music and games and is up for whatever the kids would like to play. The kids love her and there are hugs all around. As a full-time working mother, it was a huge relief to know the kids were well taken care of...jackets would not be forgotten, full tummies were a priority and washing hands, baths, pajamas were always taken care of. My youngest has allergies (complete with EpiPen) and Ann was very careful with his food restrictions and signs of an allergic reaction. The mother of the family before ours told me at the end of my reference check call that I better grab her now because I would not find another Nanny like her. And she was completely right!! It was the best decision we made.

Due to a change in our family’s circumstances, we are very saddened to have to let go of our wonderful nanny, Wanda at the end of November. Wanda has been with us since our sweet Caroline was three months old and she is now nearly 2 ½. We feel incredibly blessed to have Wanda in our lives and want to do whatever we can to find her another wonderful family for her to join. Wanda is exceptionally warm, kind, caring and compassionate. She is extremely attentive and patient and is a wonderful teacher. She speaks fluent Spanish and has taken to teaching Caroline. She is ALWAYS on time, if not early, and completely reliable, often checking in on Caroline over the weekend as well. Wanda has proactively organized play dates and activities for Caroline as well as attends music classes and regular trips to the library and the park. Caroline has a wonderful circle of little friends now because of the relationships Wanda has helped nurture. In addition to taking care of Caroline, Wanda has taken great care of me and my husband. We both work demanding jobs which often require late nights and travel and Wanda has ALWAYS been extremely accommodating to our needs in both planned and last minute circumstances. In addition to taking care of Caroline’s laundry, she will also often take care of ours which is so greatly appreciated as well as always leaving our home very neat and tidy. Wanda currently supports our family Monday – Friday 8am – 6pm. We are based in UWS/Central Harlem. She would love to ideally find a family on the West Side but is of course open. Wanda has extensive experience with newborns, families with multiple children and is CPR certified. Wanda has an absolute heart of gold and we cannot imagine our lives without her. We hope we can help find her a loving family to work with. Wanda will be available as of December 1st. My husband and I are happy to provide references and Wanda can also provide an additional list of references. Wanda can be reached at +1-646-201-3822 or [email protected] please PM me as well directly.

Hyacinth is a warm, loving, honest, hardworking person who lights up a room with her smile. She has worked for us for 16 years, since our oldest was born. We now have three children who are 16, 13 and 6 and since they are in full-time school we are reluctantly no longer in need of her as a full-time nanny. She has been like a member of our family and it is so sad to let her go. She has helped raise our three children with love and deep caring, and immense patience as well as humor. She is social and easily makes friends with other babysitters and that made it very easy for our kids to have playdates when they were young. What stands out about Hyacinth apart from the wonderful way she took care of our children is her incredible work ethic - her flexibility and her love of the children. She has worked long hours, 7 am to 6 pm regularly for years and is almost always willing and able to stay late even last minute. I can count on one hand the number of days she was late or sick, and that is over 16 years. She is absolutely willing to help with housework, not ever making a fuss about only cleaning up after the baby. She keeps a tidy house and does not like to sit around, so she will happily do errands or grocery shop, whatever is needed. She is quiet and considerate, staying out of the way when we\'re around, but being present when needed.

Pam has been with us since our oldest was 3 months old, has helped through all our big transitions; starting solids, dropping naps, moving neighborhoods, becoming a sibling, potty training, starting school and camp just to name a few! Pam is a very active, loving and engaging caregiver. She helped find fun activities to do with both my kids during the day and made friends in both neighborhoods we have lived in. She took them to classes in the neighborhood, arranged play dates, and always made sure they got outside. Pam was always on time - if not early - to work. She was always able to stay late or start early if we needed her to. She is also very tidy! My girls absolutely adore Pam, and she has really become a part of our family over the past 5 years.

She is extremely patient and has taught my daughters manors and how to interact with adults and other children. This life skill has been tremendous and something they will carry throughout life. She cooks for the girls, cleans their room and keeps the common spaces tidy. She is always willing to help and go the extra mile and encourages date night :) She provides a sense of sanity for myself and husband who are full time working parents. Yvonne would be a wonderful addition to someones family caring for 1 or 2 children. She will always be a part of our family and we are extremely sad to see her go.

Parent Reference

Veronica has been with us for almost 12 years. She arrived when our son was three months old, has become an important part of our lives, and if we could figure out a way to keep her for another 12 years we would! We knew when we met her she was the perfect choice for our family. She was soft-spoken and calm and had an air of confidence about her that was so reassuring to us as new parents. She has always been organized, thoughtful, patient, very punctual, and has excellent judgment but, most importantly, she is warm and loving and focused on our son. No matter his age she kept him engaged whether that was running around in the park with other children, visiting a museum, or just playing with toys and reading in his room. They have always had fun together and she has made sure that he spent lots time just being a kid. She was much more likely to take him to the park than to ever let him watch TV or play with an iPad. When Veronica first began working for us she had two children and six years ago she had a third (the little sibling my son always wanted) but by that point it was more like her fourth because she treated our son like one of her own. Over time he became more and more a part of her family and there have been times when he has stayed with them for several days when we have gone out of town. Having this “other family” has been a wonderful experience for our only child and has taught him how to navigate the world of siblings and to share in very different ways. One other amazing thing about Veronica is that we asked her to speak and read only Spanish to our son and she has, to this day, done just that. Her hard work and dedication to our request has made our son bi-lingual – something that we could not have accomplished on our own. As our son has grown, Veronica’s responsibilities each year have changed but the transitions to new situations have been completely smooth – all was just taken in stride. We have always tried to keep our relationship with Veronica open and supportive and we have discussed all types of issues “mom to mom” rather than as employer/employee. She has reinforced our wishes with regard to raising our son and we very much value and respect her opinion and experience. Her hard work and dedication to our son has helped to make him a strong, independent, young man and the bond they share is amazing. We will miss her daily presence in our lives but we know that the next family for whom she works will be incredibly happy and lucky. We highly recommend Veronica without hesitation. Please feel free to contact me or Veronica should you require any additional information or have any questions.

I was Gabbi's employer from October 2017 until October 2019. She is patient, kind, intuitive, smart and incredibly capable and productive. She requires little direction but accepts instruction well. She is professional and has good judgment. She would be a huge asset for any parent. She took initiative to make every day important with my children. She would often organize play groups with other children in our neighborhood and building and forge friendships in our community for my kids. She never watched television and would spend the day speaking English or Spanish with my son. He learned his alphabet and how to count in both languages and it is amazing to me what he understands as only a two year old. Gabbi is very smart and has an ability to understand the relationship between parent, nanny and child, fully. I never heard her say a bad thing about another parent or mother in the years that I knew her. She was respectful and understanding about differences in styles and ways of doing things. She would share her thoughts or suggestions when she felt it was necessary or helpful, but knew when to stay quiet. I admire so many things about Gabbi's capability and want to ensure that she ends up with a loving and good family.

Parent Reference

June 30, 2018 To Whom it May Concern, I am writing on behalf of Rangita Gurung, who I have known for the past 6 years. Our family was lucky enough to find Rangita through a word-of-mouth recommendation given through a close friend’s nanny. After interviewing many prospective caregivers for our newborn son, Collin, we chose Rangita in July of 2013 and have loved having her be such an important part of our family. From day one and every day for five years, Rangita was been a warm, attentive, and enthusiastic caregiver. We credit many of our son’s positive qualities to her. She always kept him engaged, even when he was as young as three months, by constantly talking to him, playing, and reading books. As Collin grew, she was instrumental in reinforcing good behavior and following through with our ideas on parenting. She took time to understand our values, and guided Collin with these in mind. Communication with Rangita was easy and straightforward. She always made a point to let me know where she was with Collin, what plans they had, and would never make assumptions that something was “ok” without running it by us. She took initiative in planning activities, made suggestions about playgroups or classes, and had no problem coming up with things to do on a rainy day. If someone couldn’t make it for a play date, Rangita was Collin’s play-pal whether it be playing with a train set, arts and crafts, costumes, and as he got older, writing and math. This ease of communication also extended to her agreed duties, which were always fulfilled as requested. In addition to all this, Rangita’s work ethic is unmatched. She was reliable and prompt. If there was train trouble, she would let me know ahead of time. She is flexible and would always try to accommodate our needs should we have a change in our schedules. Perhaps one of her greatest assets is that she, too, is a mother, and can understand what goes into raising a child from the perspective of both a professional and a mom. In this, I always valued her insights, and if you engage her, she will be honest and share her experience. I have learned a great deal from her. Rangita is an exceptional person, was a pleasure to work with and will be greatly missed by us. We were lucky to find her and have no doubt your family will feel the same way.

Evelyne has worked for us full time caring for our daughter for the last 3 years since we moved back to New York in January of 2017. 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. We are keeping Evelyne on until she finds the right next family - so she is available as soon as immediately or as late as early 2020. 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 917.907.0179 "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 347.296.1079 "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 917.526.3589 "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 212.431.8092

There is no caregiver more special than Beve!! Beve has been part of our family for the past 11 years and we couldn't imagine our lives without her. In those 11 years, she has proven to be the most reliable, respectful, caring, loving, nurturing, and trustworthy caregiver. Our sons are 11 and 5.5 years old and she has always made the role look a lot easier than it is! Now that they are both in school full time, we are hoping to find her another family who can benefit from her incredible personality and experience (she was with 2 other families for 10 yrs before us). Our oldest was a preemie and the minute she met and cradled him, we knew she would take care of him with the pure love and devotion that she has. He had many delays and I worked full time, so she is comfortable with kids who need services or have a lot of appointments. When our second was born, there was no one more excited than her to have another child in the home. We know both our boys adore her because of the affection they show her and the smiles on the faces each day they see her. They feel protected and loved when she is with them because she takes care of them as if they her own and her priority is their safety and happiness. Everyone in our kids' daily lives (from family, to our pediatrician, to friends, to teachers, to doormen, you name it!) tells us how lucky we are, how professional she is and how wonderful she is with our children. She is gracious, punctual, soft-spoken, hard-working, diligent, and has a calming presence. She has always managed our kids very different schedules with ease and taken them to appointments, classes, sports, etc without batting an eye. She has taught them both basic and very important information way before I ever even thought of it, such as how to tell left and right, how to spell their name, and their address. When they are sick, she cradles them and nurses them just as any family member would. She is organized and has taught me many tricks to making a day go by smoother. She has helped my children create lasting friendships through the play dates she arranges and hosts. She has always done their cooking, tidying and laundry and will often go beyond that. She is willing to run errands, do family laundry, and light cleaning. She has many tricks up her sleeve and has made our lives more manageable in every way possible. She is happiest when she is taking care of others and my children have benefited greatly from that! We hope other families can too! She is available M-F until 2pm and is flexible on Saturdays.

Our incredible nanny Stacey has been with our family since our first was born, 5 years ago; we have a boy, 5, and two girls almost 4 and almost 2 (plus a french bulldog). She started with us in the city and for the last 4 years she has been commuting 3+ hours each day from Brooklyn to Westchester after we moved. Stacey has been an excellent nanny at all stages – from our infants to juggling 2 and then 3 kids under 4 years old. She has tackled child development issues with us for the babies including sleep training, low weight issues and nap/sleep schedules as well as for our toddlers, including potty-training, pre-school separation, sharing, testing boundaries, etc. She is very consistent in her approach with the kids. They know each day they will be greeted by a smiling face, a fun, caring and loving nanny and that certain activities (like drawing on the walls) are just not allowed. She is focused on healthy eating habits for the kids, including balanced meals that are seated at the table. Stacey is young (40) and active. She loves to be outdoors with our kids and has the energy to run around with them. She can also manage to keep them entertained and happy indoors on a bad winter day. She reads, colors, builds and explores. She's not a texter or talker. When she's with our kids her phone is in the room but not in her hand. Stacey is very independent, trustworthy and low maintenance. She only calls when there is something urgent to handle. She is easy going and takes requests for modifications well. She also will have conversations with us when something is bothering her rather than letting an issue fester. She is mature and intuitive. Stacey is reliable. She is always on time and is willing to spend a few moments talking through the day with us each evening rather than running out the door when we arrive home from work. In 5 years, she was sick only one day. She requests her days off well in advance. She has a daughter who just started college. Stacey came to us from Anne-Marie who worked in finance with two young girls, living on the Upper West Side. Stacey worked with them for 2 years before they moved to Westchester. Before that, she was with Jessica, a doctor on the Upper East. She had been with Jessica for 6.5 years; first for her son then the arrival of her twin girls who started kindergarten when Stacey left. Our kids are now all in school and we transitioned to an au pair but I wish we could have kept Stacey forever.

We part ways with great melancholy; now that one of us is working part time and both of our kids are in school, our needs have changed and we will be seeking an alternative option. Before us, she took care of two boys for eight years. Whoever brings her into their family will be fortunate indeed. Most importantly, Dana will keep your kids safe, period. She is street smart, hyper-cautious when crossing frenetic NYC streets, has drilled safety routines into our kids' brains, and is tough and strong and is quick to step in and stand up for our girls to protect them. She also thinks of risks that many of us miss and has also drilled our children on safety in the home and kitchen such that our four year-old is one of the most safety-conscious people we know. And, she is always on time or early, often arriving in our lobby 20 to 30 minutes ahead of time so that she can be precisely punctual. Beyond these vital basics, you can count on and expect from her so much more. Dana is a former preschool teacher with advanced degree work in early education. Ever resourceful, Dana has always been brilliantly networked – with a wonderful group of friends and access to a wide array of playrooms. She offers her views in a thoughtful, reassuring way, and is always respectful of a parent's ultimate set of decisions, and follows their guidance. And, she knows exactly how kids think, she cares about their feelings, she knows how to motivate them, how to comfort them, how to nudge them out of tantrums, and how to help them be reassured that everything is going to be ok. During the baby years, Dana kept a meticulous log of each of our children's earliest days until they reached the toddler stage, took the initiative to make homemade strained food for them, and purposefully worked to exercise them (tummy time!) and strengthen their legs on the playground (which helped both of them walk fairly early and with confidence). Dana has also taken great care to talk with them constantly and contributed considerably to exponential, accelerated growth of their vocabulary and their ability to understand and process social cues. As our children have grown, Dana has potty trained both of them, taught them all of the colors, letters, ABCs, read them countless stories, done hours and hours of arts and crafts with them – taken them out for pizza with their little play friends, taught our four year-old to write her name, and taught them precious songs that they now know by heart. Finally, she shows up for us and for our kids whenever we need her, without flinching. "I would do anything for my little friends," she says. That is exactly right, she would and she does. Many others (parents, teachers, doormen, and even people working in restaurants and shops around our neighborhood) have noticed her outstanding level of attentiveness and care along the way too – and have shared with us a wide array of compliments of Dana's outstanding work that they have observed when we are not around. We have been so thankful and fortunate to have her help us raise our children. We will miss her – and we highly recommend that you hire her. Dana is looking for a full-time, on-the-books job with a family with whom she hopes to have a similarly long-term relationship as her last several families have enjoyed. She can be contacted directly at (347) 984-2950

Keeanna is a wonderful, energetic and positive nanny for our now 17 month old son. She daily has activities planned to stimulate his development and knowledge. She is very creative and her projects are all Pinterest worthy.! She gets along great with other nannies and sets up frequent play dates and park outings. She gets our son to eat and enjoy new solid foods. She transitioned him to one nap seamlessly. She constantly talks to him and communicates in a way that keeps his interest without using baby talk. At the end of the day our son is calm happy and tired. She somehow still manages to find time to clean and do his laundry. She is always on time and is both reliable and flexible. We really do not have enough good things to say about her and are sad to let her go. If you are looking for a new full time nanny she will be an amazing addition to your family.

Parent Reference

Kim has been fundamental to our family well-being during the year that she worked with us. Our daughter has now reached the age of going to full-time preschool and it is with a heavy heart that we are parting with Kim, our full-time caregiver. Kim was taking care of our little girl (2 years old) full-time and of our older boy (5 years old) on specific days/afternoons when there was no school or during school breaks. Kim has more than 12 years of experience taking care of young children and she is just wonderful! Upon beginning to work with us - we had just moved to New York and were coming from overseas - Kim immediately sought out social opportunities for our little girl. She forged relationships with other young families and their own caregivers, planning and organizing play dates throughout the year, including outings to the park, music classes and many other low and no-cost opportunities that she discovered and enrolled our little girl in for us. We also became friends with other young families thanks to Kim’s original and professional efforts on our behalf. Kim consistently understood the need to keep our little girl socially engaged, intellectually occupied and physically active. And she did the exact same with our boy on the days when she was taking care of both of them. There were many important parenting fundamentals that Kim helped us to cultivate and instill in our children: respect, the need to be polite, to be patient, to be a good guest, a good host and good at sharing. She always managed to keep them on track but always gently and respectfully of the children’s own needs, desires and of their emotional and intellectual understanding of a situation. All along, she would instill confidence in them. Of equal importance was Kim’s flexibility and her unwavering reliability. She always arrived early or on-time, every time. Last-minute work deadlines for my husband and I were accommodated by Kim consistently and with grace. Requests for time off were infrequent and communicated to us well in advance. It is with a very heavy heart that we are letting Kim go. Our family will miss her personality and her huge heart. We were always deeply touched by the thoughtful presents that she would get the children on their birthdays and special occasions. We will miss her energy, gentleness and emotional investment. We cannot recommend Kim’s skills as a caregiver and her wonderful personality highly enough. She would be an amazing addition to anyone’s family, and my children were lucky to have her in their lives. Charlotte Cans

Charmaine was referred by my very close family friend who initially retained her to raise her two boys. She still visits the boys often and continues to be close to their entire family. She has become a part of our family now since she has been with us. Charmaine takes care of our 2-year old daughter like her own, spoils her, but disciplines kindly when needed, and loves her dearly. My daughter also loves Charmaine very much as well and has loads of fun with her since Charmaine has her schedule packed with activities and playdates. My daughter met her two best friends because of Charmaine, and the nannies that Charmaine spends time with during the day are absolutely amazing as well. They have built this tremendous community in South Harlem where the nannies support one another, and are all immensely kind, sharing and loving people. My daughter has started preschool from 9am - 3pm this fall, and we would like to keep Charmaine on to help in the afternoons, but it will only work for Charmaine if we can find another family to share her services either part-time or full-time. Charmaine has provided our daughter with an amazing community, confidence, warmth and laughter. We cannot recommend Charmaine highly enough.

Dawn is a warm, energetic and loving nanny. She cared for my son from 2 months old till almost 14 months (we had to switch to a live-in nanny given our work schedules / travels). She was dependent and always on-time. My son's face always lit up when she showed up in the morning, and they always laughed, danced and sang together. I interviewed 20 nannies when I was going through the process and she impressed me with her initiatives and ability to connect with my son. Dawn has ~15 years of experience and helped me through transition to table food, my son's first sickness, nap consolidations, and many other first. She proactively set up playdates, took him to classes / story time, and logged his daily activities. Her help made our life easier as busy working parents, and we hope she find a suitable family soon! She lives in Brooklyn and worked in many parts of Manhattan/Brooklyn. She is open to both part-time (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday with flexibility on hours) and full-time (M-F, up to 50 hours; 8-6pm). Ok with dogs.

Hello, We are moving, and the hardest part is leaving behind our nanny, Emelie. Emelie has taken care of our son for over 2 years, and I cannot recommend her more highly. Emelie is calm, kind, reliable, responsible, self-motivated, fun, and loving. Everyday, Emelie shows up on time and ready to take my son out to the park, to meet friends, play... she is the leader which is so great. My son has a great time, is fed healthy meals, is bathed, and napped by the time I get home. Emelie is a pleasure to be around, and I trust her completely. Also a bonus is that she knows lots of activities for babies and toddlers in Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, and Boerum Hill. She lives in Brooklyn and was never late for work even once. Emelie is open to full or part time work (minimum 30 hours per week). Contact/ Text for more information Thank you, Laura

We have been lucky enough to work with Judith for almost a year and had hoped to continue to work with her for much longer. We unfortunately need to part ways as we’re moving back to Canada in the fall. Judith came to work with us when our daughter Millie was about 4 months old. They clicked from day 1 and have an incredibly close bond. Every morning when Millie hears the key turn in the door she perks up and squeals with excitement to see Judith. Judith is able to make Millie feel comfortable, safe, and joyful. They are constantly laughing together, yet Judith is also able to give our daughter structure and boundaries as she develops. She worked patiently with Millie as she learned to eat, crawl, stand, and now walk. They keep busy every day playing in the park with other kids, and exploring local libraries, gardens and museums. I get photos and videos throughout the day keeping me up to date. We chose Judith because she has over 25 years of experience as a care-giver with kids of all ages. We knew we would be in great hands as our daughter grew up. Judith has become a part of our family. In her own gentle way, she guided my husband and I through the early stages of parenting – putting us at ease at every step. Before us, Judith worked for many other families long term, and I was able to speak to those references- all of whom raved about her. She has lived and worked in Brooklyn for many years so she knows the area well and has a great network of friends in the area for play dates. Judith is incredibly reliable and accountable- never late, and never took sick days. She is flexible for evenings and weekends as needed as well. She takes care of all of Millie’s food, laundry and washing. Our house is always in impeccable order when we get home. We are moving in November so ideally would like to line up her start date with a new family and our move, but can be flexible if necessary.

She is great at micromanaging playdates, going to kiddy classes, outings at the park/museum, as well as, most recently watching over homework. She leaves every day with my house in order and kids rooms tidy and organized. She is super organized and diligent and punctual. Now that my kids are in school the majority of the day, we don’t need Lucia full time and we recommend her to work somewhere else to supplement her income. She and my sons have become very close. We are all like one big family and are very sad to see her go - as she will be missed. We highly recommend Lucia.

It is with a heavy heart that I am posting for my nanny who is looking for a new family as our needs have changed. She is looking for up to 50 hours a week, ideally 8 AM - 6 PM but is flexible. Rachel has been with our family for the last three years, and cared for my two children from the time they were an infant and a toddler (5 months and 2 years.) She is a loving nanny with a calm demeanor with experience from infants to elementary school age. From the time I spoke with Rachel on the phone I knew that should would be a great fit for us. I didn't have to do any training with her at all - she came in and immediately stepped into her role with a seamless handoff. She has worked both in schools and with other families prior to ours. She is amazing at creating routines for the children and with instilling structure and discipline as needed. Safety is number one for her. She always makes sure the children are eating properly, maintaining good manners and being responsible by having them help and pick up after themselves. She forms great relationships with other nannies, sets up play dates and activities and keeps the house neat and clean. Rachel transitioned with us through multiple moves and life changes and we are very sad to see her move on. She will always be part of our family and anyone would be lucky to have her.

Baby whisperer nanny becoming available! My nanny of 7+ years is becoming available because we have moved to the suburbs and really need someone who drives for our three kids. She has been helping us transition in the meantime. She has decades of experience spread over just a few families, and remains adored by all (one of the girls she formerly nannied for still visits with my girls now and is in her 20’s). She is well-loved not only by my kids, but our extended family, friends, neighbors & teachers. She is the kindest, warmest, gentlest person imaginable. She has helped me raise 3 babies and has infused them with love and warmth. Incredibly reliable, beyond patient, has remained loyal through huge changes in our lives. I’ve truly been the luckiest.

Ranee has been watching our son from April 2017 (from 4 months old) to present (currently 2.5 years old) 3 days a week. The rest of the week we had help from our mothers. From day one, Ranee always carried a calming and loving demeanor. She was the only nanny we interviewed because we knew as soon as we met her that she would be perfect for our family. We always equate her to our son’s third grandmother, as her love for our son is as if he’s her own. It is evident when you meet Ranee, that caring for babies/children is innate in Ranee and she loves what she does. She is extremely consistent (never in a bad mood, always on time and always understanding if one of us was late to relieve her). The only reason why we have to let her go is that we are moving overseas. It’s very sad to have to let her go as she has had such a positive impact on our family.

Availbale immediately: *If you're looking for an incredible caretaker for your child(ren), look no further!* Irene came into our lives in the Summer of 2016, when we were returning to work after the birth of our youngest daughter, Mavis. Not ready for daycare, we felt like hosting a nanny in our home would be the right fit for our family and importantly, for our baby who was 5 months old at the time. Little did we know, Irene would become a part of our family, and in the process 3 years have sailed by! Irene has seen it all - fussiness during the newborn/infant period, navigating challenges associated with returning to work, feeding issues, separation anxiety, navigating changing nap schedules (or no schedule at all!), introducing solids, toddlerhood, play dates, potty training, supervising my older daughter after school... you name it! The spirit of calm and generosity she brings to our home every day leaves the entire family feeling happy, secure, and we feel so lucky to have her in our lives. If you're on a tight schedule in the mornings, there's no one more punctual. If you're stumped on new foods to introduce, her knack for cooking with kid friendly but adventurous flavors has my 3 year old celebrating when she hears the words plantains, fish, tomatoes, mangoes, peppers, ham, curry... If your little one has challenges with sharing or making friends or the usual toddler stuff that brings working parents stress (and sometimes guilt), you have an incredible partner in Irene. She goes out of her way to make friends, set play dates, and introduce my little one to new neighborhood experiences and enrichment. The other families she's worked with are still in touch with Irene, too, and can share similarly glowing references. We're moving on to nursery school with a combination of excitement and melancholy, because while Mavis is ready for the next big step (thanks in so many ways to Irene!), we're going to miss seeing a member of our family every day. We hope to find a great family for her as she makes her next move. Please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Are you a new mom or dad looking for a nanny who will love your children and give you peace of mind that everything with them is taken care of when you're not there? I have your nanny... My children (7 and 4) adore our amazing nanny Catherine. Catherine was with our family for nearly six years since my son Tate was 3 months old, and transitioned to a regular babysitter since our kids have been in school. My children love her so much. They run to the window every night after she leaves to shout their "I love yous" from the 8th floor down to her on the sidewalk below. I was so heavy-hearted when it was time for her to move on and now it turns out that her latest family is relocating and she is looking for a new lucky family. At first, she can appear a bit shy with adults, but Catherine instantly connects and bonds with children. It was clear from her first interview with us that Catherine was so focused on our son, and her deep love for him was evident very early on. My mother, an early childhood educator, picked up on all of these things that Catherine was doing to engage with Tate that I didn't even notice. She has a gift. Catherine remains focused on our children, never distracted by her phone. She is always singing and reading books to them. She made a point of meeting other nannies in our neighborhood so our kids had playdates and social outlets with peers during the day. We always would run into kids in the neighborhood who our kids knew well from their park time and playdates with Catherine. She had our kids outside as much as she could, running around the park, in sprinklers, being kids. Which brings me to the next of Catherine's attributes: she is incredibly responsible and always exhibits good judgment. If the kids got wet or dirty playing the park (which I love!) she would always have them bathed and clean by the end of the day. She left our home cleaner than we left it for her. She was always on time and never took sick days - maybe two total in the six years with our family. Somehow she maintains this perfect balance of love, activity, and order. She makes it look effortless. We would be happy to recommend Catherine and just want her to spend the next 6+ years with a great family who would be happy to appreciate all of her gifts.

We are looking to help our very special nanny of 5 years find a new family and full or part time live out position. Sharda has almost 20 years of experience, working with newborns through young adults. Sharda has cared for my son and daughter for the last 5 years and been impeccably reliable, honest, kind and helpful during this time. Our kids are now reaching middle school age and no longer requiring full time care so we are looking for her next long-term employment opportunity. Sharda has helped us from toddler stages with feeding and nap schedules to managing school drop off and pick up as well as taking the kids to classes and play dates. Sharda is a wonderful cook who prepares healthy home-made food for my children. She keeps our home neat and tidy and has helped us with the children’s laundry and keeping their rooms straight. She has been an amazing support to us as a working family, having the kids fed, bathed and in their pajamas when we arrive home from work so we can spend special time together before bed. Sharda is extremely vigilant about keeping our children safe which was a big priority for us. She is extremely present and never uses her phone when the children are around. Sharda is very maternal, having also raised 3 children of her own and understands the different care needs of both boys and girls. Sharda is very kind and warm but has also supported us in working on boundaries with our children, raising them to be respectful, polite and well behaved to the point that we are consistently complimented on their behavior in public. She also understands that kids like to have fun, so frequently plans trips to the park, library, or hosts playdates to engage them. Sharda has helped us with the additional reading support our son has required, as well as ensuring the children have worked on their homework each day. Sharda’s first language is English which has made communication seamless for our English speaking family. In her 19 years experience, Sharda has worked for three families concurrently in Manhattan which is a testament to how wonderful she is and how hard it is for us to let her go. Sharda is looking for a full or part time position and is open to occasional evening and weekend work if needed. She would ideally like to work in Manhattan or somewhere she can commute by public transport. We are very sad to see Sharda go, but excited for her to start her next chapter to bring love and joy to her next family for many years to come. While she will no longer be a full-time employee to us, she will forever remain part of our family.

Our wonderful part-time nanny, Geeta Gurmohamed, is available Monday - Thursday mornings until 1pm. I really cannot say enough good about her. She's extremely professional while also being warm and loving. She's responsible, levelheaded, easy to be around and work with. She's very clean and organized and helps tidy up around the house when she can, which goes a long way! She's been with us for 8 months and quickly became part of our family and a staple in my daughter's life. She has a wonderful family of her own and she's raised three great kids. We are extremely sad to part with her but we are in need of a full-time nanny. Geeta spends the afternoons with a family that she has been with for almost 12 years. She's worked with children of all ages -- my daughter is 20 months old, previously she worked with a newborn, and her other family has two children in elementary school. We live in Tribeca and she'd love to stay in the area or on the UWS. You can reach Geeta directly @ 917-447-5668 and also reach out to me for additional info. Christie & Lucie (20 mos)

Parent Reference

Samantha was our daughter’s full-time caregiver for almost 3 years. When she started, our daughter was 5 months old. When we first looked for a nanny for our daughter, we interviewed numerous potential nannies, and Samantha came out on top. She was the clear and obvious choice. She is warm, fun and patient. She is a true professional with many years of experience and takes her job seriously while having fun, but always keeping safety in mind. It is clear that she truly loves her job and loves our daughter and helped us become better parents. Samantha made my transition back to work so easy. As a new mom, this was such an emotional time and she totally put my mind at ease. I knew I did not have to worry about my daughter at all. She would always engage our daughter in age-appropriate activities. She would keep her busy and have fun. Sadly Samantha departed as we decided to put her in a full-time school and my new job has a childcare facility. While we knew this time would eventually come, we are deeply saddened about losing her. She is available for a new position and am happy to answer any questions and provide a further glowing recommendation of Samantha. Here are some other reasons why we love Samantha: 1. Samantha always respected me as the mother and was always truly happy to follow my wishes even though she has many years of experience. 2. She was a tremendous resource to me as a first-time mom and had great advice whenever asked. 3. She has truly bonded with our daughter and you can tell they love each other. We will always think of her as family. 4. Everyone who encounters Samantha and our daughter at playdates and at school tell us how amazing she is with her, and how lucky we are to have her. 5. Samantha loves taking her on adventures (always with permission and when it becomes age-appropriate) and she is the one who introduced our daughter to other kids similar to her age in our building. Thanks to her we now know so many more families in the building! 6. Samantha is just an all-around great, loving and caring person to have in your life and we will truly miss seeing her everyday. *If you have any further questions about Samantha, please e-mail me. We will be in overseas for a few weeks in October and may not be able to receive texts. Thank you.

I am writing on behalf of our amazing nanny Georgia. With my youngest starting school, we no longer need a full-time nanny. Georgia has been with us for over three years and multiple years with all her previous families who she is still in touch with and sees. She has over 20 years of childcare experience and is absolutely the best. She is caring, patient, smart and full of positive energy. My children adore her and fight over who will answer the door every morning when she arrives. She takes the kids to school, activities, arranges play dates, and juggles their different schedules. She is extremely social and within days of starting with us she already created a huge network with other nannies in the neighborhood for playdates. Georgia is incredibly trustworthy and responsible. We always have peace of mind when leaving for the day that our kids are in good hands. She takes her job very seriously and is always on time. She has experience working on both the UES and UWS and is looking for a new family to grow with. Georgia is looking for a full-time job Monday through Friday starting in September. Please feel free to reach out to her directly at 917-794-0503.

She is very conscientious and dependable and also young and energetic enough to keep up with active kids. She can handle kids meals, and all the laundry and housekeeping associated with the kids.

My children have aged out of requiring nanny care and I would highly recommend Eroline Wagner who worked with me for twelve years. Eroline is a very trustworthy, reliable, loving, and loyal caregiver. She is very easy to interact with, is a caring listener, respectful and friendly. Eroline will coordinate play dates on her own, cooks for the kids which she enjoys as she used to be a hotel cook, keeps a clean environment, and has taught my kids strong values which align with my family’s. She has been highly referred by all of her previous employers and is outstanding. We will miss her very much and know that any child she cares for will grow to be happy and confident. I can be contacted should you choose to discuss further.

Judy Cherry has worked for our family for 8 years. She was our full-time live in nanny from the time our son was 5 weeks old until he was about 4, and then our live-out nanny full time until he was five and a half. She has worked part time for us since in every capacity you could think of -- babysitter, personal assistant, house keeper, etc. She is kind, smart, incredibly responsible, and the single most reliable person we\\'ve had work for us in any capacity. She never missed a day of work in five and a half years full time, and the one time she had to take medical leave for a foot surgery her daughter who is lovely and a mother herself worked for us. She has raised three great kids, two of whom we know well and one of whom worked for my husband. We love her whole family and she loves ours. My mom used to say she wanted Judy to be her caregiver when it was time! (it\\'s not time yet...). We highly recommend Judy. She worked long hours for our family and took very good care of our son who is now 8 and in school and sports full time so we no longer need a nanny.

Cleaning: Yes, light cleaning only

Parent Reference

We have been very lucky to have found Sherlane. We interviewed several and had 2 previous nannies since our 1st daughter was born, and we feel very fortunate. Unfortunately we are moving overseas and we are so sad to leave her. She is warm, caring, nurturing and genuinely enjoys playing with my daughter. My daughter feels it and can't wait for Sherlane to come home and go play with her and go out and have fun together. Sherlane is punctual, organized and proactive (she doesn't need to be told what to do), she is very respectful with my approach to my kids education and works with me towards that. My daughter is 3 and a half and a have a second daughter who is 9 months. Sherlane is really amazing with babies too, very knowledgeable and handles both very very well. She has a very calm personality which I feel is really important to deal with kids, as they sense your energy. Something I admire is she doesn't use confrontation to discipline, she goes around and finds the way to have my daughter collaboration without having drama. She helps me to keep the house tidy, cooks everyday the 3 meals for the kids (she is a good cook!) and cleans after the kids, most importantly helps to teach my daughter the tiding up routine, and she does it in a way that my daughter is happy to help. Sherlane took my daughter to any activities or classes and she even participated in them, which was so much together. She did playdates with other kids my daughter was friends with or sometimes playdates were arranged by me, as I knew the mums. She is flexible and I always felt her as part of my team, as a working mum I'm so grateful for that. If you would like to hear more about Sherlane, feel free to contact me for any more details.
