Tresa joined our family in the middle of the pandemic, and took care of my two boys, ages 1 and 4. My younger son’s face lit up whenever she arrived in the morning. She always came early and waited until we were settled to leave. She took him out for walks every day and followed a daily routine. My younger son had some developmental delays and she came to physical therapy sessions and then incorporated what he needed into his play. She also took initiative teach him words, colors and shapes. She kept the play area clean and tidy, stayed on top of the never-ending pile of kid laundry and kept their drawers impeccably organized. My older son was in school during the day, but when he got home she would incorporate him into playtime, too. She took every precaution during the pandemic and got fully vaccinated as soon as she could. Sadly our schedules have diverged, so we hope to help her find another lucky family that she can become a part of. She is looking to work part time Monday-Friday 7:30/8 - 4pm.

Lobsang Lhamo

Availability: Full time, Desired start 2021-08-23

duties

Cook:
Laundry: Yes, for kids only
Cleaning:
Live in/out: Only live-out

Parent Reference

Lobsang was everything we could’ve ever hoped for from a nanny and would be a life-changing find for any family, and she is looking for another Park Slope family with whom to work exclusively. Lobsang is an absolute treasure and we learned a considerable amount about how to put our newborn at ease because Lobsang herself was is deliberate, calm, and confident. She has a unique background-- she is a buddhist-- and her calm and soothing temperament and attentiveness made her stand out from all the other nannies we interviewed. Moreso, she is punctual, capable, easy-going, attentive, engaged, caring, creative, utterly unflappable, and our daughter grew to really love her. We have worked with her ever since our daughter was 2 months old up until her present age of almost 3. We’ll miss her and are only giving her up because we’re moving out of the city. It’s clear she enjoys her work and Park Slope specifically (her last family was our previous upstairs neighbor, who worked with her until their son was 5! He loved Lobsang), and has been working here for around 10 years already. She has a circle of other considerate Tibetan nannies so our daughter always had friends to be with, and would arrange to meet up with them at Prospect Park, various playgrounds, Barnes and Noble, and at the Brooklyn Museum as well. She is prompt with texting and every day sends us wonderful photos and videos of our daughter and what she's doing from around the neighborhood, which we've really cherished. With other nannies often on their phones or not seeming to interact with the kids, Lobsang is always talking, singing, and engaged with our daughter, which I have no doubt helps explain her incredibly advanced verbal skills. We feel her to be a genuine part of our family which is not something we could've expected. Almost immediately upon starting working with our daughter, she and we were completely at ease with her and knew that our daughter was in the best hands, home or outside. We are determined to see Lobsang well-placed. Any family who lands Lobsang will realize immediately just how lucky they are. Please feel free to follow up directly with us any time for details, or directly with Lobsang.

Our former nanny is looking for a new family, preferably one with an infant. Mona was with our family for about 6 years, starting when my older child was just a few months old. She is warm, energetic and has a can-do attitude. I found her to be particularly skilled at caring for newborns, which gave me such peace of mind as a working parent. And 2.5 years later when we had another baby, Mona didn’t miss a beat and happily adapted to caring for two. She always read to our kids a ton and taught both how to write their names at fairly young ages. She also kept them active and frequently took them to parks, playgrounds, museums, etc. Mona lives in Queens and is open to working in Manhattan, Brooklyn or Queens. She is also fully vaccinated.

We were very lucky to find Virna, she has taken care of our 2 and 4 year old boys for the last two years and made our lives so much better. She is a professional and takes her job of 23 years very seriously. Our children will be going to school full time in September and we are greatly saddened to have to give her up. Virna is not just a Nanny but she is part of the family. She is a kind, loving, patient and a nurturing person who wants the best for our children. She treats them as if they are her own. Virna is reliable and punctual because she shows up 30 minutes early every single day, so even if the trains are late, she is still on time. She built relationships with other nannies, teachers, mothers and thhe people who work in our building so everywhere we go our kids had friends and people looking out for them. We were always at ease knowing they could not be safer. She also sends us pictures throughout the day so we always know what they are doing. Our kids had an instant connection with her, she started when our youngest was 7 weeks old and we always felt very relaxed when she was taking care of him and our other son. Now they are both rambunctious boys and she has no problem keeping up with them and creating great activities for them. In the mornings she reads with them, sings with them and teaches them how to speak in complete sentences. Our children make beautiful art projects with her, she always finds creative things to do. She is always setting up playdates that are Covid Friendly. Virna is also our eyes and ears for what our oldest does in school. She has a great report with the teachers and will tell you what is happening daily. Virna gave me excellent parenting advice and has helped me to become a better parent.

I have depended on her in so many ways over the years, and just feel grateful more than anything that we’ve had her as part of our little family. We’ll need her for some of August, but her transition can be flexible as well. She prefers to be paid on the books, as an FYI.

Parent Reference

We are looking to find a new family for our former nanny Pearl. Pearl started with our daughter when she was just 4 months old and was with us for almost 3 years. As first time parents, Pearl was truly a gift to have as a nanny. Pearl was so helpful in every way during the difficult transition to going back to work full-time. She quickly came up to speed on our schedule and routines and we always had peace of mind leaving our baby in her care. She was very supportive and knowledgeable through all forms of feeding and helped as we transitioned from breast-feeding, to formula to solid foods. She made home made and nutritious purees that our daughter loved and I credit her for having a toddler now who is a very adventurous eater. We live in Williamsburg, and even though Pearl was new to the neighborhood (her previous families were in Park Slope) she quickly learned the lay of the land. She took our daughter to the park, library, music classes, and always had great ideas and feedback for enrichment activities. She made age appropriate friends and arranged playdates so I never felt that our daughter was lacking socialization. Pearl is an avid reader and is always reading and singing with our daughter, and she is also great at getting on the floor, playing and getting my girl to laugh. She’s truly an expert at raising children and was always ready to help our daughter’s development, whether it was taking her first step, weaning off the “paci” or getting her to sleep in her big girl’s bed. Our daughter is very high energy, and Pearl never once missed a beat in keeping up with her and making sure that she was safe. She’s firm when she needs to be, but always gentle and never loses her temper. Most importantly, I can honestly say that Pearl loves my daughter like her own, and always places her well being first. Since we both work long hours, we always appreciated coming home to find our daughter, well fed, bathed and happy. She also was key in helping to keep our apartment in order and would leave the kitchen spotless, toys tidied and laundry clean and folded. She's reliable, on time, and great at staying in communication. She always sends plenty of texts and pictures throughout the day so I could feel like I was part of their day. You really won’t regret hiring Pearl to join your family. She is truly a professional nanny and has over 30 years of experience. She has been employed with all of her families long term - 5 years plus - and we only parted ways with her because relocated out of the city, otherwise we would have kept her with us as long as we could. When we did our nanny search, I called all of her prior families and they all gave a glowing reference, and she has certainly earned a glowing reference from us as well. As one of the prior families told me - Pearl is the opposite of lazy. She’s always willing to work and available for extra overtime or babysitting. She’s an incredibly honest and hard working person who has raised three lovely, college educated daughters of her own. She’s looking for a full-time position in either Brooklyn or Manhattan. Please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or 917-822-4003 if you have any questions, or you can contact Pearl directly at 718 781-7017.

Incredibly warm, loving, knowledgeable and professional nanny available! Tasha is a true gem with kids and she has been with us for over 3.5 years. She joined our family when our older son was 3 months old and seamlessly handled the active toddler phase while welcoming our second little boy. She is incredible with babies and was quickly able to jump in, establish a great schedule and taught us so much about bottles, foods and baby needs with our first son. Our older is very very active and she was easily able to handle him and our baby with ease. Tasha is extremely friendly and established a wonderful network of friends for our older and shuttled him to multiple activities pre covid. She is fully vaccinated and extremely clean, cautious and protective with the kids. She treats them like her own and takes care of all their needs, including prepping healthy meals, laundry, bath time and reading. She’s extremely diligent with cleanliness and safety and was this way before covid hit. Following covid, she created fun activities for both boys within their pod group and kept then engaged when home and out. She’s also very neat and tidy and left our apartment looking great at the end of each day. As a bonus, she was super sweet with our little dog. Prior to joining our family she was with her other family for over 6 years and before that worked for several doctors on the east side. She is incredibly knowledgeable but also extremely adaptable and considerate of parents preferences. Safety is also of utmost concern to her and I was able to go to work everyday knowing my boys were in amazing hands. Any family would be lucky to have and we are more than happy to answer any questions.

Morine is the best nanny we could have asked for and we would like to find her a new home (we’ve left NY due to Covid). A bit about Morine: -Amazing understanding of child development. As a first time parent, I really value Morine’s understanding of development and milestones. She guided our whole family along in terms of “what comes next”. -Experienced caregiver. Cared for our daughter from the time she was four months old until just over 3 years old. Morine has over 20 years experience caring for children. -Focus on structure and manners. Morine has helped raise our daughter to communicate well (please/thank you), have appropriate table manners, and demonstrate good behavior (eliminating / minimizing tantrums). -Meticulous detail to cleanliness. Avoided germs and taught our daughter to do the same as well. Morine ensured that our home was left in great condition at the end of each day. She established good behavior with our daughter as well, in terms of washing hands and tidying up her toys. -Great at networking and ensuring socialization of our daughter. Morine built up a network of other caregivers in our area and would arrange play dates with other children. -Reliable. I could go to the office and have total piece of mind that my child was safe and well cared for and that my home was in order. Morine was totally in command and took her responsibilities very seriously. I didn’t receive calls when I was at the office. Except for one occasion, when our daughter was violently ill. Morine exhibited excellent judgement. -Punctual: In the almost three years she worked for us, I can’t recall Morine ever being late

I'm writing in hopes of helping our wonderful nanny, Usha, find a new family. Usha has lovingly cared for my son since birth. Almost 7 years later, our needs have changed and we don't need her full-time help anymore. She has been cheerful, warm, energetic, dependable, self-motivated, on-time and responsible every step of the way. It was clear from our first meeting with her that she is passionate about taking care of children and takes pride in aiding all aspects of their development. As a baby, Usha got my son on sleeping and eating schedules, made homemade baby food and always knew what new games/toys/art to introduce. Every evening, she would give me a review of the day in such detail that I felt like I knew exactly what had gone on, which was incredibly helpful to a frazzled new mom! I have often said that she has taught me how to be a parent. As my son got older, Usha worked with him on the alphabet, reading, drawing and writing. It was always done in a creative, fun way. She helped my son blossom. She also taught him good manners, stressed the 'right' and 'wrong' way to treat others and helped his confidence grow. During Covid, Usha continued to come in every day and "ran" remote schooling for my son. She kept him motivated and challenged him to do his best work even though school didn't seem important over zoom. She found creative art projects to act as extension activities to build upon what was being taught. She was instrumental in keeping his remote day school as true educational days and not just filler in between being in the classroom. She took this initiative on herself and not because I had asked. She is actively involved with my son all day – no matter what the age. They do art projects, build with legos, do science experiments, dramatic play and more. She is not passively involved. She brings the fun! Usha has handled arranging playdates, taking him various classes in the neighborhood and dropped him off at preschool and then elementary school. She's taken him to different parks and sights all over the city. Also, she straightens up my son's room, helps with his laundry and shopping/errands. Over the years, I have received so many positive comments from parents at school and in the neighborhood who have spent time with Usha with my son. She truly has loved to see him grow into a wonderful, kind, curious kid. And now, after all of this time, my son still runs to the door every morning when she arrives! As a working parent, I've never had to worry about a thing when Usha is taking care of my son. I know that she always has his best interest at heart and looks out of him like he is her own child. Prior to working with our family, she was with her previous family for 10 years and still remains close with them. Usha is an absolute gem! She will bring joy to your family's life. I am happy to speak to anyone about my experience with her or you can reach her directly at [email protected] / 331.472.9743. -- Meredith [email protected] / 917-494-9037

Maritza has over 10 years experience as a nanny, as well as being college educated, CPR certified, and vaccinated against Covid. Maritza is a warm, attentive, and intelligent nanny who has helped our family so much. I needed a nanny due to having surgery while still nursing my 6 month old, and was unable to lift anything over 10 pounds. Maritza supported me in continuing to breastfeed, helped me still spend time and play with my son despite my physical limitations, and helped with household tasks without being asked. She also knew when to take him outside to allow me to rest and recover. Within 10 minutes of meeting her my son was laughing, and now he claps and laughs as soon as she walks through the door; she has a natural way with children that puts them at ease. She is very prompt, and is flexible with hours. She takes a ton of initiative and does not have to be directed in what to do. She takes my son outside every day to play and found him an outdoor music class when she noticed he liked music. She also made him homemade baby food without me asking! She is covid conscious, fully vaccinated, and takes precautions in public. I have recovered from surgery and am moving in a month, or I would want to have her in our house forever. She is looking for a full time, live-out position. She is very flexible in terms of the hours she can work, so just ask.

Our family is now in the process of moving upstate, but we are truly heartbroken to lose Deb. When we first spoke with Deb, we instantly knew she was the nanny we had been looking for. Deb is a warm, caring, loving, and professional nanny who has a great deal of experience and wisdom. She puts all of her energy into our son – Deb is constantly engaging him – from singing her extensive collection of songs and nursery rhymes to helping him reach the next step in his development in a fun way. She is also very patient and gentle with him, while also anticipating his needs – something that was extremely important to us. Deb’s positive energy and calming presence quickly made her a seamless part of our family. As first-time parents we were so anxious to have someone take care of our six-month-old son. We immediately felt at ease with Deb and she quickly earned our trust. She truly loves and cares for our son like her own. She cares deeply about his wellbeing and genuinely becomes excited and feels proud when he achieves even the smallest of milestones. Deb is very easygoing and approachable to work with, offering reassuring advice and helpful suggestions without forcing them. She is highly experienced and has great insight about childhood development and behaviors. Likewise, Deb is very receptive and open to your preferences, like adopting a specific schedule or routine. In addition, she’s extremely observant and detail-oriented and highlights small changes in his day-to-day behavior. Deb is also proactive and goes the extra mile in our home, whether it’s tidying up in the kitchen or preparing extra meals for our son. At the end of the day, Deb wants to make sure his things are organized and no task is left undone. She once explained that she likes to do as much as she can, so that we can spend quality time with our son. When Deb arrives in the morning, our son lights up and beams with excitement. When she’s heading home, she plays peek-a-boo by popping her head through the crack of the door, which – without fail – makes our son giggle. They truly have so much fun together and their connection is so special. We will miss Deb so much. We hope it’s clear why we care so much about her and want to make sure she finds the right family. It’s been a privilege for our son to be cared for by Deb and any child would benefit from the diligent care and generous attention she provides. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Deb's phone number: 347-601-7312

Shalini has been a wonderful asset to our family since day 1. She started part-time with us when my daughter was 3 months old. She has over 15 years of experience in caring for newborns, toddlers, elementary and beyond. As first time parents, we had a hard time finding the right fit for our family - we interviewed 10+ nannies, but as soon as we spoke with Shalini we knew she would be a great fit. Shalini is calm, patient, and very knowledgable - which is exactly what we needed. She is very flexible and adapts easily to change, she was wiling to stay late if needed and also will do overnights. She is very open to discuss routines but does not over step boundaries and offers great advice. She is responsible and very organized. From day one, our LO's room/closet was always spotless and organized better than any other part of our apartment. She cares deeply for children and you can truly see that in her interactions. She is energetic, bright and would bee a wonderful asset to any family. Please contact Shalini at 845-287-1709. I am also more than happy to tell you more as well.

My husband and I no longer need a full time nanny as our kids are getting older and Colleen, who was with my family since my oldest was 4 months old (he is now 11), is looking for a full-time position with another family. She handled everything for my son and my daughter (she is now 7) and always found something fun for both of them to do when they weren't in school. She Is fantastic at organizing play dates and maintaining relationships for both of my kids through the years. She always engaged my kids and never watched TV- they were always playing games, doing fun projects, etc. She Is always on-time and very aware of her time. She also is incredibly organized and was always making sure my kids' rooms were clean, our apartment was clean and they picked up after themselves. We can't recommend her enough. Thanks!

Sherry Khan Our wonderful nanny of 7 years is looking for her next family. She would like to start as a baby nurse and grow with a family like she did with ours. We have two sons now, aged 7 and almost 5. She is a baby expert and gave me the confidence and security to go back to work when my eldest was only 8 weeks old. She helped me learn all the ins and outs of infant and toddler care including milestones without ever once being condescending or controlling. She is respectful of our family’s approach to parenting and is incredibly kind. Her calm demeanor is balanced with an ability to set boundaries. She knows how to feed a breast fed or formula fed baby and makes excellent baby food. And my kids already miss her cooking! Sherry sets up play dates and helped my boys build relationships that they carry to today. She is active and able to engage children with age-appropriate stimulation. I cannot recommend Sherry enough and am happy to provide any level of detail you would like. Please don't hesitate to reach out for more details

Valerie has been our full-time nanny for over six years. Our kids are now both in camp/school full time and we no longer need full-time care. This is sad for all of us because Valerie has been an amazing partner in raising our two kids (7 and 4) since they were infants. Valerie is the very definition of “in good hands,” and has been an ideal caretaker. She brings warmth and calm to our kids’ lives (and ours, too!). She gets down on the floor with the kids, sings and plays -- and never loses her cool. Her affection for the kids is so genuine, I know they can feel it—and they return it in kind. Valerie is a calm, unflappable, steady presence and her even-tempered vibe never seems to crack. She knows when to hover and when to let go—our kids are independent and play well on their own. She is endlessly punctual, responsible, and considerate. Also worthy of note: the Park Slope family she worked for before ours employed her for 10 years. I think that speaks to Valerie’s gifts – her reliability, her connection with kids, and her flexibility. Once she’s in your orbit, you won’t want to let her go!

It is a pleasure to recommend Glenis as a caregiver. She has been caring for our daughter for the past year beginning around age 8-9 months. Glenis is reliable, warm, and energetic. She actively engages with our daughter, and I always felt at ease knowing Evelyn was under her care. Glenis has encouraged a level of independence which has enabled Evelyn to blossom into an adventurous, fun loving, social butterfly. Glenis has been able to set boundaries with our spirited toddler while also providing a safe, loving environment. She is outgoing and formed relationships with other nannies in the area, often scheduling play dates and seeking out new places to explore. She is open minded, punctual, and was very flexible with our work schedules willing to help on days she was not scheduled to work or stay late when needed. She has helped me through the many transitions of new parenthood. Our daughter absolutely adores her, and I'm eternally grateful for her guidance and support. We are parting ways due to relocation across the country and hope to help Glenis find a wonderful family.

Lucy approaches things with a very calming presence which was very welcoming to a new mom. The best way to describe Lucy is invested. She loved our children and was invested in their growth. She helped with teaching them necessary skills as well as sleep training and potty training. Lucy was wonderful with our children and also for our family. She understood the big picture of running a household and brought sanity during a very busy time. I cannot recommend Lucy enough. Lucy is currently looking to work ~4days/week preferably in Brooklyn, Queens or Long Island.

She is ideally looking for a full-time, live out position in the city. Before working with our family, she worked with her previous family for 17 years and helped to raise two beautiful boys. She has flexible hours and is extremely reliable. In the 4 years of working with our family she has never once called out sick. Marie is a true gift. She is energetic, optimistic and young at heart. She is always the nanny that is constantly singing with the kids, on the floor playing with them and setting up playdates with others. She has been such a gift for our family. Any family who hires her will get a real-life gem :) Please feel free to contact me if you have questions.

Our wonderful nanny of 3 years, Maggie, is seeking a new full-time position. She is beyond trustworthy and honest and is loved by our girls. Maggie has been caring for our 3-year-old twins full time since they were 4 months old. We will be sending them to pre-school in the fall. Maggie has worked with newborns and toddlers, but her preference is to start with newborn/baby(ies). Maggie made twins look easy. She heroically managed to get our girls outside almost every day, despite being in a second floor walkup. Through infancy, she kept to all our requested schedules by the minute and as they got older, explored parks and classes, made new playdate friends, reads to the girls, does arts & crafts, etc. Maggie occasionally babysits on evenings and weekends. She lives in Brooklyn, and is ALWAYS early. She has been incredibly safe during the pandemic and is vaccinated (vaccine information included with her permission). I can't say enough good things about Maggie and would be happy to talk to anyone who is interested

Our nanny, Anita KC, joined us when I was due for my 2nd child in April. She is truly god sent and was there for our family in every sense. Anyone would be hard-pressed to find a better candidate for employment. Over these past months, she has truly become a part of our family. She did everything for our newborn, right from making a schedule to monitoring feeding, bathing. She also takes care of our son who is 2 years old once he comes back from the daycare. She is so loving and caring and gentle with him considering he is at the peak of his tantrum phase. She has always, punctual and never having taken any unscheduled time away. Despite having somewhat of a long commute, she was always on time or early. I am so confident of leaving my kids with her alone as we feel confident that she could take care of our children and provide the same level of loving care, respect and guidance that we try to provide as parents. IN addition to her job responsibilities with the kids she helps out with cooking healthy meals for the children and doing laundry- all while keeping the house tidy. The best thing about her is that even though she has so much experience, she is always willing to learn and adapt to your way of parenting. She suggests ideas but is never too intrusive. She also keeps her skills up to date by enrolling in nanny training and CPR skills. She has also completed courses in nutritional needs for children. We are so sorry to see her go and will miss her terribly. Our family is moving countries and that is the only reason we have to let her go. I sincerely hope that you are quick to give her a position, as her warmth, attentive care, and inviting personality will be sure to endear her to you and your family. Please do not hesitate to contact me by phone or email if you’d like any additional information; I’d be happy to share!

It is my pleasure to recommend Urila Weekes. Urila worked for me for almost six years in the role of a nanny. She cared for my three children starting when my oldest child was three months old. During her time with my family, Urila went above and beyond. She is motivated and took initiative to plan activities and play dates for my children ensuring that they were constantly engaged. Urila is highly motivated and works well independently with little direction needed. Urila relates to children of all ages. She seamlessly cared for my children through their different stages from infancy to elementary school age. She taught my children material in an age appropriate manner and captured their attention. She has a love of all children and often other moms would ask me if Urila would be able to supervise their children as well. Urila is reliable and trustworthy and hardly took any days off in almost 6 years. I could always count on her to be there. Additionally, I knew that my children were in great hands and was always at ease knowing that my kids were in Urila’s care. In summary, I believe that Urila Weekes would be an asset to any family and her love and dedication for children will shine through. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.

Roz cared for our son since he was 2 months old, first in NYC and then in Westchester. We would've kept her forever, but our needs unfortunately changed. Roz is, hands down, the COOLEST, calmest, most caring and adaptable nanny around. She's soulful, eternally optimistic and so, so, SO...SOCIAL. We attribute Roz with our son's confidence and ability to make friends. She showed him how it's done! I called her my parental "Yoda" because she always seemed to have the answers to everything...without being judgmental or pushy. Oh, and did I mention she sings? There's constant music in the house when Roz is around! If you want your child to be well-adjusted, confident, friendly and just plain 'ole HAPPY every day: ROZ. If you want to ensure your child is safe, loved and well cared for every day: ROZ. If you want a nanny you can trust, a nanny who's never late or misses a day...a nanny who's adaptable to all situations no matter what: ROZ.

If you are looking for a Nanny who will keep your child safe and happy, you should hire Annette. Annette loves our three year old if he is her own. She is smart. She is dependable and honest. Annette is caring and fun. If we were staying in the City, Annette would be our forever Nanny. Our son lights up when she arrives each morning. She helped him make lots of friends. He has lots of playdates, thanks to Annette. She made sure he was always on time to classes - no matter how near or far or what the weather. She plays, reads, hugs, and does all the things you would wish! Annette takes initiative. She offers to cook - including new, healthy recipes. We never have to ask her to do anything - the laundry is done, the dishwasher is run, she vacuums as needed, and she lets us know far in advance when we need household items/groceries. She sews - and made all of our son's masks. She has a family of her own - so, she is current on the latest toys and safety guidelines. This is a Nanny who can take charge, and make you feel at ease. She is available beginning of September. She is fully vaccinated against Covid-19. A home with a dog is ok. Annette prefers the Upper East Side and is very familiar with the neighborhood, its Parks, and local classes.

Marcy is a kind and loving caregiver. She joined our family when our son was 4 months old (he's now 4) and was with us through the birth of our daughter (now 1)--we couldn't have imagined these last few years without her. She is dependable, trustworthy, and an all-around lovely person--ask anyone in our building. From our doormen to other parents to other children, everyone loves Marcy. In fact, my son met his best friend through playdates Marcy organized with other nannies in our building. Marcy is never late, never calls in sick and almost never asks for time off. She timed her vacation with ours and was always willing to come early, stay late or come in on her day off if we needed her too. Her flexibility and reliability is something I've always valued. Marcy has an extremely calm and gentle way about her and an incredible amount of patience. Toddler tantrums and screaming babies never seem to bother her. In fact, she manages trying moments like these with grace. Marcy has always taken great care of our children and I have never once worried about their well-being when they are with her. It has given me such peace of mind knowing they are in her safe hands. When we were looking for a caregiver for our children, I wanted someone who would love my children and show them what it was like to be a good, kind person. We found this in Marcy tenfold. My daughter's big smile and reaching arms when Marcy walked through the door in the morning reminded me of that everyday. We are so sad to be saying goodbye to Marcy but are leaving NYC. If you have any questions or would like any additional information, please don't hesitate to contact me. We will miss Marcy very much and would love nothing more than to help her find a new family.

Babita is a wonderful nanny that we had the great fortune of helping us with our two children for several years. Due to Covid and work schedules shifting, we are hoping she will find a loving family to benefit from her great care and wonderful character on a full time basis. Babita is kind, patient, loving, clean, and my children absolutely adored her. They loved engaging with her from the moment she arrived every morning, I would regularly come home to the children and Babita giggling and having wonderful conversation in the evening. She was regularly a part of our conversations in the evening and weekends (and truly an extension of our family unit). She is very focused on the children and their needs and willing to adjust to what the priorities are for the children and family at any given time. She is calm and patient, no drama, and very kind and gentle person. She follows the guidance from parents on preferences and priorities. Babita is fully engaged with the children but also open to helping around the house as needed especially when the children are at school. She would run errands, get groceries, prep meals, help with other misc. requests without any reservation. She is flexible staying late when our work demands required or when we had evening commitments. We were fortunate to have Babita's help with raising our children in a positive and safe environment.

Parent Reference

Nathalee has been an incredible nanny to our children for the past 6.5 years. She began with us when my son was a baby and transitioned with us to caring for two children when my daughter was born. The kids are now 6 and 4 years old and will both be in full time school in the fall. We are hoping to help her find a family who will appreciate her like we do. I have spent a lot of time with other nannies and I can say with utmost certainty that she is exceptional. After interviewing 15+ nannies in 2015, we hired Nathalee because she had the most glowing AND consistent references. We spoke with every family she had worked for over 20 years. She had long relationships with each of them and has kept in touch with all of them. They all said the same things-- she is the most kind, honest, reliable and nurturing person. I have had the same positive experiences with her. I will detail some of her best qualities. Nathalee is 100% reliable. In six years she has never been sick/ never called in to work. She has only taken off work VERY rarely in advance for scheduled doctor appointments or important family obligations- she never uses her sick days and has never used all of the personal dates we allotted for her each year. This has provided peace of mind that is invaluable for working parents. Nathalee is completely trustworthy, honest, and always her genuine self. I have never once questioned anything she has told me, or worried that she has held something back from me or exaggerated. Again, peace of mind that I never have to worry about what's going on with my kids and know they are in the hands of a good person. Nathalee is very experienced with babies, toddlers and beyond. She has her own three children who are the kindest kids which, of course, tells you what type of parent and person she is. Nathalee is calm, patient, and knows what to do. She will ask questions, discuss how you as a parent want to approach things and she will take your lead. However, she does not need you to micromanage-- she knows how to take care of babies, toddlers, and young children and her experience was an asset to us. As a child psychologist myself, Nathalee and I were almost always on the same page and even where we may have rarely disagreed, I have never questioned her sound judgment. She will keep your little ones safe and happy. Nathalee is so easy to be around. She has a calm and quiet presence. I have worked from home countless days even before covid, and have lived with her 3 days/week during the pandemic. Nathalee is always even-keeled, is easy to talk to, and communicates effectively about the children; however, she is a true professional in that she lets you have space, keeps appropriate boundaries, and does not interrupt your work. Most importantly, Nathalee has the kindest heart and loves to be with children. She and my children have a wonderful relationship I could never have anticipated before we hired someone to help us. Nathalee is on the floor with babies/toddlers, comes up with fun creative games as they get older, does arts/crafts with them, sings to them and she truly enjoys them. I have never seen her get annoyed or frustrated even as my kids have grown older and they often frustrate me! She nurtures them when they are sick, takes them to classes and makes playdates, shows genuine interests in their interests. She \\\"gets\\\" each of their personalities and what they need from her. She is mindful of developmental milestones and engages in appropriate play. She worked on school readiness with both of my kids. When I work long days, I don't feel guilty leaving my kids at home because I know they are with Nathalee and she is family. I would be happy to answer any questions and share more about my experiences with her. Best of luck in your search.

Parent Reference

Tess is a wonderful nanny, and we have been fortunate to have her help with our two girls (18 months and 2.5 years) since February. While we had a full time nanny, I had surgery in February and needed someone to help out on weekends until I was back on my feet. Tess was the first nanny to seamlessly interact with both girls, who grew to love her very quickly. Tess is incredibly calm, kind, and willing to help out in any way, such as picking up groceries, other errands, etc. Although she is very experienced, she works with the parent's preferences to help raise the children in a cohesive manner. Even after I was back on my feet, we kept Tess for the remainder of the school year to help with the girl's schedules. From the first day, she easily picked up our older daughter from school and took her to play dates and activities, interacting well with the other nannies. When with our younger daughter, Tess was always on the floor playing with her, building blocks, doing puzzles. Tess always kept busy- doing laundry, tidying, making beds while our younger daughter napped. We highly recommend Tess for any families looking for an honest, calm and loving caregiver for their children.

Our family truly hit the jackpot the day we hired Pat to be our sons' nanny. For 5 years, we never had to worry about our boys while my husband and I worked. Pat is the most loving, kind, responsible, trustworthy, and cheerful presence. She made herself a part of our family. She cared for our boys as if they were her own, and they love her for it. Our sons were 4 years old and 5 months old when we hired her, and the only reason that she needs a new family is that we moved to an afterschool sitter when my little one headed to kindergarten, and we are heartbroken to lose her. Pat always arrives on time, with a smile and a hug for the boys. She is always completely focused on them and playing with them - I never have to worry about their safety or that they are being ignored. She's extremely friendly and social with everyone in our building, school, and neighborhood (Upper East Side) and befriends other families and sets up playdates. She keeps our apartment in order, does everyone's laundry, and cooks dinner. She makes sure my older son gets his homework done and play games and reads books with my younger son. She's amazingly flexible, always willing to stay late or come early if we need her to. She's also been flexible over the years in how she cares for our boys - making sure she changed how she cared for them as they grew. I can't count the number of times strangers have stopped me in the street to tell me how amazing our nanny is because they have seen her with my boys. Any family would be lucky to have her. I'm happy to provide any more information or you can contact Pat directly.

She remains a good family friend and comes to visit the kids (who are now high schoolers) whenever she can. She is the most responsible, hardworking, loyal and decent person imaginable, and she loves children. Having been through several other nannies & babysitters before finding her, I know the immense difference it makes when you find someone you can truly trust with your children; someone who will treat and care for them in the way you would yourself care for them. Fernanda is highly experienced and very practical in every way too. She was immensely helpful with housework and other chores, and is a flexible and dependable employee.

Our boys are better people thanks to the influence Lani has had in their lives. Lani is highly dependable and professional in how she approaches her work. I regularly have other parents and teachers comment on how wonderful Lani is with our boys. She has enjoyed being active with them exploring the city and building a wonderful network of friends and community. I fully trust her judgement navigating the city with the kids. The first time I met Lani, she picked up a book and read to my son and immediately I could see what a strong role model she would be in early learning development. Lani is also a wonderful cook. We are based in Chelsea and Lani has also worked with prior families in other areas of Manhattan. Her preference is to work with a newborn.

Our Outstanding nanny is looking for a full-time position Aggie has been a fantastic nanny for our daughter from the age of 4 months to almost two years old (Aggie is a certified specialist for newborn care), and we are hoping to find her a full-time position with a loving family. She has extensive experience working with infants, has her pediatrics CPR and First Aide certifications, and has been fully vaccinated for COVID-19. Aggie exceeded our high expectations as a guardian and companion for our daughter. She has been extremely reliable and always on top of safety concerns. When coming home from work early during naptime, we would find her waiting outside the nursery or cleaning up. At a playground, Aggie would keep a close eye on her. An example of her going above and beyond the call of duty was her diligence in arranging playdates. We could see the joy in our daughter's eyes when she would return from one of these get-togethers. Aggie planned it all. Despite working in our Upper East Side neighborhood for the first time, Aggie quickly branched out to create this network. Now our daughter has a group of friends! She became a part of the family in the almost two years that she worked for us, and we feel invested in advocating for her next job because we want another family to have the same outstanding care for their child or children. With a few day's advance notice, she was almost always able to shift her hours around to work with our schedule. She came to us highly recommended from her previous employer, a family with several children including one with special needs. Aggie's extensive experience in childcare made her a valuable advisor in raising our child, and it shows in her patience, initiative, and problem-solving skills--we can't recommend her highly enough. We welcome any inquires by email and/or schedule a phone call.

Barbara is an exceptional nanny and person. She came to us in the height of the pandemic, and made our lives so much easier. My youngest was just 2 weeks old at the time. Barbara was able to seamlessly jump in, creating order where needed. She not only assisted my older children (5, 8 & 13) with their newly appointed on line schooling, but also cooked dinner for my family of 6 on most evenings. Barbara, who is a former elementary school teacher was able to juggle caring for a newborn while monitoring our pre-K and 3rd grader. In fact, both children ended the school year making the honor roll! She is very engaged, always having new ways to keep them entertained and occupied, during the long stay at home days. She did light cleaning when possible. Barbara is gentle but firm, loving, and understanding. She has the know-how, and it is evident that she has done this a time or two. Barbara is punctual, and is flexible. She had no problems being available for a few occasional date nights. My family is relocating to San Antonio, TX, and this is the only reason why she is no longer with us. However, trust me if taking her with us was an option we most definitely would.

Jasmine has worked for us for the past 13 years, since my oldest was a newborn. She has been an absolute blessing to our family, caring for both our kids over the many years and providing them with a very safe, positive and enriching environment. As our kids are older (13yr old son and 10yr old daughter), and we are able to work from home more regularly, we really no longer need full-time help and would like to see her find another family that could benefit greatly from all that she offers. Jasmine is incredibly hard working, caring, knowledgeable, reliable and professional. She is very experienced with kids of all ages adapting to their needs and the situation. When our kids were babies she helped us develop a routine including getting them on a more consistent sleep and feeding schedule, which was priceless. She was also excellent with all the key areas of care (diapering, feeding, bathing, etc.), often giving me suggestions or insight in a very appropriate and respectful way. She also always sought to get the kids outside and involved in various activities – when they were little she took them to the playground, library, museums, music classes and play dates. She also engaged them in things like learning numbers, letters and reading books at various times during the day. Once they started going to school she has also been amazing at helping them with their homework – both in terms of getting them to complete it right after school (per our request) and also in the work itself as she is very intelligent and equipped to help across subjects. Jasmine also has been great at playing with the kids in their areas of interest – playing wiffleball with my son or doing art projects with my daughter. She has always supported our values in terms of prioritizing education, enrichment, responsibility and respect which is one of the many reasons she has been with us for so long in addition to the great care she provides. Jasmine also stands out for her food preparation, cleaning skills and attention to detail. She is always tidying up around the house and ensures things are in order. She does a great job with the kids laundry – she works out spots and stains and is even able to get my son’s heavily soiled baseball pants sparkling white! And then puts all the laundry away in a really organized way, setting aside items that they’ve outgrown in the process. She also does well with age-appropriate food prep, sometimes even cooking for the whole family which was great for us. Jasmine has been incredibly reliable – she is always on time and has never called in sick in 13+ years! She has always been willing to stay late and work overtime when needed including overnights. This has been really helpful as we are two working parents with demanding jobs. She also communicates well with us – she is proactive and thoughtful. She is a native English speaker and is a very good writer as well. Lastly, she knows CPR, has a clean driver’s license and is vaccinated against Covid. It is hard for us to say goodbye to Jasmine given how long she has worked for us and how strong of a connection she has with our kids. I cannot recommend her more highly and really hope she can find a wonderful family. Please feel free to contact Jasmine directly at 646-761-2164 or you can contact me for any information or questions.

I am searching to help our wonderful former nanny, Elena, find a new family. We relocated to Savannah, GA but she worked for us in NYC. I was a first time mom, and Elena made it so easy to go back to work. She is the sweetest woman ever and my son loved her! I can not recommend her more highly; she is kind, gentle, caring, knowledgeable, flexible and so helpful. She specializes in newborns/infants and would love to grow with a family. She was such a great fit for our family and made the transition into parenthood so much easier! She does light housework, all baby’s laundry and always left things much tidier than she found them. She kept his bed fresh and would leave out clothes that he had grown out of for me to put away. She even helped with our dog which was not a requirement. She always went above and beyond what we asked for. She was never late for work, is extremely gentle and caring but was also very energetic and fun! She helped our son get on a great eating, sleeping and playing schedule. She coordinated play dates, and found several classes for them to attend together. She is very proactive, organized and fun! She has worked for several families on the UES over the years and is very familiar with the area. One of the hardest parts of leaving NY was leaving Elena- I would love to help her find a family!

Prior to working with us as a nanny, she worked in a preschool/daycare and has extensive experience with young kids, including raising 3 beautiful children of her own. Kerrie has been extremely reliable and trustworthy. She has taken great care of our son who adores her. She knows the UWS well, is constantly setting up play dates, taking Carter to book stores, music classes, museums, the zoo, playgrounds, etc. She is consistently teaching me about what’s going on in the area. In addition to external activities, she’s also great at sitting in our apartment reading books, doing arts and crafts (together with my son they have created an entire alphabet of animals that are hanging on his wall), putting on puppet plays and sings new songs. She continues to adapt as he grows and I really can’t say enough good things about our time together. In addition, she keeps our home/life running smoothly and helps by keeping our apartment neat, does our son's laundry, and cooks nearly all of his meals. I would love to help her find another great position for after we leave. If you’re interested, don’t hesitate to reach out and I can put you in contact.

She is so thoughtful and often surprises our kids with kind gestures. Once she baked a cake for one of my kids for his birthday without me asking. She is a superb cook. Her remit included cooking for her kids from time to time and for breakfast, our kids would be sad on her days off because they couldn’t have Ann’s oatmeal or pancake and didn’t like how I make them. She has many wonderful Caribbean recipes and my husband and I are addicted to her fried chicken! Ann would be a wonderful asset to any loving family.

I have known Pam for the past year when she started to work in lower Westchester. I had the pleasure meeting her through our nanny when she came to our house for playdates. She was taking care of a 3 year old little boy, who is the same age as my younger son. Pam and the little boy spent 1-2 days per week in our home, especially during the cold winter months when there was nowhere to go. As I am working from home, I had a chance to observe her interaction with children. She got down to the floor and played with the boys and taught them about sharing. She taught good manners to the little boy at the table, she reminded him to say thank you and please. The boys also took gym classes together, consequently became good friends. When the weather got better, they spent most of the time outside in our backyard on the swing set. Pam kept the little boy safe; watching his moves to make sure he is safe on the swing or coming down the slide. The boys were constantly entertained, blew bubbles, played with contraction toys, and played soccer. Additionally, Pam drives her own car and drove the little boy to his daily activities. I became very fond of Pam during these past months, she is not only amazing with children, but also a wonderful person. She is kind, easy going, polite and was always very appreciative of having them over for playdates. Previously, Pam worked for a family for 16 years taking care of two children. She is a responsible person, who knows all about how to raise and keep a child entertained and happy. Pam is fully vaccinated. She is looking for a full time position in lower Westchester and would be a great addition to any family.

I recognize that choosing a new nanny for your family is an important decision and I wholeheartedly recommend Lorraine. She is a nanny with more than 20 years of experience. Lorraine joined our family when our son was 3 months old, was there for the birth of our daughter, and has been an important part of our family ever since. When our children were very young, Lorraine established a comforting routine for them and taught them how to be responsible and independent. She established a network of nannies in the neighborhood with kids the same age, which led to new friendships. She organized play dates and took our children to the playground. She proposed music and gym classes in the area and always got them to classes on time. When I left for work each day, I was confident that my children would be safe, happy and well cared for. As our children have grown older through these many years, Lorraine has developed a bond with them and earned their love and trust. She picked them up from school every day, made countless trips to sports practices and other appointments. She took on more responsibilities like errands, cooking and cleaning for the whole family, always ready to do anything we asked. She has been very flexible, adapting her hours and schedule sometimes at a moment’s notice. Lorraine is responsible, professional and trustworthy. She is patient, calm and fun. Most importantly, she cares for our children like her own. We wish Lorraine could be our nanny forever, but now our children have grown older and our childcare needs have changed. But I have no doubt she will continue to be a part our lives. I would love for Lorraine to join a great new family who would be fortunate to have her to care for their child/children. She has plenty of energy for babies and toddlers, and the knowledge of how to care for them well. Please contact Lorraine directly at (347) 683-3343 if you would like to learn how wonderful she is.

Mimi is an incredible Nanny, she is gifted at knowing and understanding the needs of all children of any age. She has worked for me since my son was 8 weeks old and has been with us for almost 14 years!. She is trustworthy, loyal and truly cares about the children and their needs. My son had special needs and developmental delays but recently graduated from a normal private school, a part of that credit goes to Mimi who was phenomenal as an advocate for him particularly during his younger years. She also has helped raise my 10 year old daughter and during a time when I was traveling heavily for work she really stepped in, ensuring that there was a positive maternal figure available to my children. She also drives and is a careful and considerate driver who has never had an accident. Mimi has energy to play with the kids, supervise arts and craft activities, help with basic homework as well as facilitate any other key activities or ideas needed for your kids. She is also fully vaccinated against COVID and has previously completed a certified nursing assistant course and keeps her CPR training up to date. During our time living in NYC (first 6 years of working for us) Mimi also volunteered regularly at the burn unit in NY presbyterian hospital. Prior to working for us Mimi had a continuous work history with no interruptions and extremely positive references.

Tara is an experienced, warm and energetic nanny. She has over 20 years of experience with newborns, babies, toddlers, and school-aged children. Tara took exceptional care of our two boys from the time that they were infants until they were in school. She helped them learn to talk, walk, and eat and prepared healthy and tasty meals for them. She went above and beyond many times. I highly recommend Tara.

Parent Reference

Yana is an extremely caring and capable caregiver who has extensive background in caring for multiple children -- especially twins. She told us that working with children is her calling and our 4+ years with her have borne that out. She’s exceptional with babies and equally flexible in transitioning to care for and support older children as they move on to school. She exudes patience and understanding and is a joy to be around, both for children and parents. We have been stopped countless times on the street by community members singing her praises. She’s inventive and playful - skillful with entertaining children indoors, but also enterprising with finding outdoor activities -which can be invaluable if you’re a parent who is working from home. Yana has traveled with us and worked late, and she’s willing to fill-in on the weekends when needed. She connects with other nannies for playdates and joint plans and outings. She has been with our family since our twins were two months old, and the kids will happily tell you she’s their best friend. We are heartbroken to be moving to NJ and already have plans for visits. Yana is fully vaccinated and takes every precaution we and she believe are warranted to keep our children safe both in terms of Covid and the general hazards of life in a big city. She has over two decades of experience working with children in a variety of settings and we never once worried about our children's safety under her watch. Conscientious and flexible, she's also a mother herself and we highly recommend her especially if you have twins.

Our needs have changed and our wonderful nanny of 2 years is now available to join a new family. Vashni joined us with our second daughter was 2+ years old and our oldest was 5 years old. She has taken care of our two girls as her own. To name a few feats, she potty trained our youngest, remote schooled Pre-K, K and 1st grades, watched two active children at once, managed different daily pick-up drop off schedules at different locations, made sure they ate healthy snacks/foods, took them to lots of fun field trips via the subway, and was just wonderfully carefree/playful with them. Vashni’s strengths include her patience (especially in handling a toddler), her warmheartedness, ability to play with young children, being reliable/trustworthy/punctual, openness to a parent’s suggestion/request and flexibility. Vashni is in amazing shape and can chase down any toddler for hours. With two young children home schooling and two working parents at home, Vashni was a treasure to have in a small apartment. Vashni has more than 12+ years of experience caring for children between the ages of 6 weeks to 12 years old in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Vashni also attended college, studying Biology. Vashni is fully vaccinated and was extremely careful throughout the pandemic. She is also comfortable with dogs.

Parent Reference

Irene is a much loved member of the family. Her experience is vast, having worked with kids of all ages as a longtime nanny. She's supportive of breastfeeding, bottle feeding, formula, a pro at potty-training, and the only adult who could get our toddler to branch out beyond favored fruits to fish, veggies (cucumbers and broccoli are still faves!), and sometimes more adventurous flavors. There's no one more punctual, making a high stress morning routine run smoothly for all. Most important, she loved our kids like her own, and her impeccable references suggest other families she's worked with feel the same. She is dialed in to developmental milestones, and with our support sought out neighborhood playgroups, as well, going out of her way to engage and play at every chance. Neighbors often sang her praises unprompted, and our little one's smile whenever her name is mentioned (even now following separation due to Covid) says it all. Irene has been very cautious throughout the last year, and will follow any Covid precautions your family is taking. She is available immediately.

Parent Reference

Keita is the nanny you want to snatch up! It was serendipitous the day we found our nanny. Our doorman told me, "you have to grab Keita. She is the best and her family is moving to Philly. She will be needing a new job soon". It was so easy and I never looked back. Keita was with us for about 6 years, starting 3 months after my older son was born. As new parents, she was perfect for us. Her confidence and delicacy with which she took care of our newborn was reassuring and mind-blowing to us. She really showed us the way. She home made all his first foods - all the purées. She is a great cook! Like any parent, I hated going back to work and leaving my child at that age. She sent me pictures every day of my smiling, happy boy. The bonus with Keita - she speaks French. We asked her to only speak to our kids in French so they would get that added benefit. She loves the idea that she can help teach a native English speaking child French. I went out and got French books and it was great having that added influence. I loved to hear my little one say "sil vous plait"! On this note, I suggest if you are interested in speaking with Keita and doing an informal screening interview over the phone first you will miss out on getting to know Keita. Her strong suit is her personality which, with the language barrier of her accent and that she’s not a native English speaker, things definitely get lost in translation over the phone. You must meet her to know how wonderful she is. Please interview in person to get the true Keita! One of my biggest nanny pet peeves- I HATE when I see nannies walking their child with headphones on- or gabbing on the phone. You would never see Keita doing this. She doesn't watch tv - and so the tv was never on in our home while she was taking care of our 2 kids. She engaged all the time and her #1 priority is focusing on our kids and making sure they are happy. She has so much love and care in her heart; you can rest assured your children will be loved and cared for as close to a parent's love as possible. When the kids were playing off by themselves or napping she looked for ways to be helpful to the family. She really went above and beyond. She has an incredible work ethic. She is very social and makes connections with other nannies at the playground with ease. She helped our children make friends with other kids at the playground and planned playdates often and easily (I gave her permission to do this!). During classes she would get on the floor with our kids and particpate in the 'mommy and me' classes as though my children were her own. My kids took karate classes and I received the most amazing email from the receptionist there- out of no where - at the time. I have to share an excerpt from it it to exemplify what is so special about her: "I am taking a chance to offer some unsolicited opinion. I do not do this often. In fact, this is the second time. So here goes...I have had a few occasions to observe [S] and [J's] child care provider (babysitter) thus far. I don't recall her name. I have to say she is so good with your children. Her smile of pride and approval for their accomplishments here is beautiful...Trust me, I see nannies that are not attentive to their children. Good choice in hiring her". This was not the first time I had been told how wonderful Keita was by random people over the years. She is extremely trustworthy. I can say without a doubt she would never lie- never do anything that wasn't honest. She has very high moral standards. When we hired her to work with us on the Upper West Side we told her we were planning a move to Brooklyn within the year. She told us "as hard as it is to find a good nanny, it's hard to find a good family." I will go with you. She traveled from the Bronx to Brooklyn, getting to us by 8am, every week for over 4 years. Keita had had 2 prior nanny experiences and those references were also excellent. She's been doing this job now for nearly 26 years. We continue to use Keita as our babysitter when we need. Win-win. Our kids are SO excited to be with her. She is like a second mom to them. And she continues to be as awesome as she was when she worked for us full-time. Keita is scheduled to receive her second Covid vaccination shot Friday, 7/1. If you are interested in speaking further about Keita please do not hesitate to contact me off-line, 917-363-2154 or [email protected]
