NY Area Nannies

We are relocating out of state in late December and are sadly leaving our nanny, Kaysher, behind. She has been with us for over 3 years and is incredibly loving, attentive, and reliable. She treats our girls (ages 4 and 2) like family. She has fantastic instincts, and I trust her judgment 100%, but at the same time she is excellent at following very specific instructions when I provide them (like with baby feeding and sleep schedule). Moms who see her at classes and the playground go out of their way to tell me how wonderful she is. I can’t recommend Kaysher enough, and it pains me that she can’t join us when we move! She is looking for full-time work and can be flexible on start date (preferably January-February so she can help support us through our move!) Please reach out to me if interested.

Aurora has been a wonderful nanny to our three-year-old, and we feel truly fortunate to have had her as part of our family here in Manhattan. She is incredibly trustworthy, reliable, and proactive—always anticipating what we need and handling every task with professionalism and care. Aurora genuinely loves children, and it shows in the warm, patient, and engaging way she interacts with them. She is flexible with her time, often staying late when needed, and consistently goes above and beyond in everything she does. With over ten years of experience and an exceptional work ethic, Aurora would be an asset to any family lucky enough to have her.

Cheryl is an experienced, professional nanny who has been a treasured part of our family for three years now. She joined us when my youngest son was 5 months old, and immediately sleep trained him which changed our lives for the better! The kids absolutely adore her. She is firm with them when she needs to be, but her overall demeanor is incredibly kind. She has wonderful instincts and I’ve relied on her expertise countless times. My oldest is now in elementary school and our needs for full time care have changed, so I want to help Cheryl find a wonderful family to share her gifts. She has a car and would prefer to work with a family outside the city, Westchester or similar. Her hours with me were five days a week, 8am to 6pm.

I’m writing to recommend Silvia Flores-Aragon to help her find a new family Silvia joined our family in October 2021, helping to take care of my daughter when she was just 3 months old.I believe you will be pleased to have Silvia as a part of your family.

Silvia is kind, caring, friendly and prides herself on working diligently. I’ve been impressed with Silvia’s ability to manage a diverse set of responsibilities. Despite her age, she is mature, composed and is always striving to achieve her goals. Most importantly, I trust Silvia completely and I’m pleased to recommend her to another family that will definitely be lucky to have her. Beyond her natural talent with children, Silvia demonstrated great responsibility in managing schedules, including school pickups, sports practices, and doctor’s appointments. Her communication skills were excellent, keeping us informed and involved in our children’s daily.

activities and milestones. I wholeheartedly recommend Silvia as a nanny . She is dependable, thoughtful, and has a genuine love for children. Please feel free to contact me should you need any more information.

Our Amazing Nanny will be available for full time work starting January. She has been with our family for about 4 years. She is incredible with children all ages and pleasant to have around. She is happy to help with cleaning, cooking or whatever tasks if might need help with around the house.

If you’re looking for a nanny who combines unwavering reliability with genuine warmth and professional expertise, Erica McMillan is exactly who you need. After a wonderful year with our family, we’re heartbroken to help her transition to a new position—but only because my circumstances have changed and I’m taking on a more hands-on parenting role. Had this not been the case I would happily work with her forever.

Why Erica Stands Out

Proven Track Record: Erica’s career speaks volumes—8 years with her previous family, and 5+ years each with families before that. This isn’t someone who job-hops; she builds lasting relationships and grows alongside families as their needs evolve.

Infant & Child Development Expertise: Erica specializes in caring for babies and seamlessly adapting as they grow into toddlers and beyond. She understands developmental milestones and creates age-appropriate activities that foster growth while keeping children engaged and happy.

Active & Engaging Care: Rain or shine, Erica gets children outside twice daily. She’s constantly planning activities, arranging playdates, and incorporates multiple daily reading sessions. Your child will never lack for stimulation or fresh air.

What Makes Her Exceptional
The quality I treasure most about Erica is her intuitive understanding of children. She respects my son as an individual, giving him space to explore and learn while maintaining a calm, joyful environment. She genuinely loves what she does—and children can sense that authenticity immediately.

Erica cares for her charges as if they were her own family. My son receives the same love, attention, and protection I would give him myself. That peace of mind is invaluable for any working parent.

Professional Excellence
Beyond her natural gifts with children, Erica is a consummate professional. She proactively identifies activities and care opportunities while seamlessly respecting our parenting philosophy and household routines. She’s delightful to have in our home and takes her responsibilities seriously—you can see how much pride she takes in her work.

The Bottom Line
Erica’s next family will gain an exceptional caregiver who will love their children, support their family, and provide the reliable, nurturing care every parent hopes for. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

We are happy to refer our former amazing nanny Bibi for her next position! Bibi is absolutely fantastic. Our family has been so lucky to have her with us and she’s helped us raise our two boys (3 years old and 9 months old). Bibi is so warm and loving with the children and our boys absolutely adore her. She is so proactive with facilitating their development and is very outgoing. She set up a whole neighborhood play group for our kids and is great about taking them to activities and the park. She helped create nap time and feeding schedules for the kids and was on top of everything related to their care. She is extremely dependable and a very hard worker, and was always willing to come early or stay late as needed. Any family would be lucky to have her! You can reach out to her at 347-277-1212.

If you’re welcoming a new baby and looking for your first nanny — stop here. Hire Denise Paul.

Denise is the person every new parent dreams of finding: calm, warm, endlessly capable, and deeply experienced with infants. She cared for our son from the time he was a newborn through preschool — 3½ years of complete devotion and joy. We were first-time parents and Denise taught us everything. Truly, we kept our sanity because of her.

Before joining our family, Denise worked for many years as a night nurse, and it shows. She anticipates a baby’s every need before you even know what’s coming — feedings, naps, teething, milestones, transitions — and she supports new parents through it all. She’s never dictatorial; she has a gentle touch and always respected our preferences, but quietly guided us with a steady, teaching hand. Denise’s presence in those first months gave us confidence, rest, and peace of mind — and her influence shaped how we parent to this day.

Denise handles everything related to the baby: laundry, bottles, meals, clothing, toys, and routines. She keeps the nursery spotless and organized, tracks when things run low, and always knows what your child needs next — from the right swaddle to the first straw cup. She made all of our son’s food from scratch (purees, soups, healthy meals) and helped him become an adventurous eater. I never once bought baby food! She’s also incredibly dependable — always early, never late, and in 3½ years took just one sick day.

And her value doesn’t diminish as a child grows — it only deepens. Denise continued to anticipate our son’s needs as he became a toddler and transitioned into preschool. She helped him learn independence, social skills, and curiosity, bringing him to playgrounds, story hours, and classes across Brooklyn (DUMBO, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Heights, Boerum Hill, Carroll Gardens). She has an extraordinary network of caregivers and families, and built a wonderful, social little world for him.

We only parted ways because we moved away from the city. Denise is a treasure — experienced, nurturing, reliable, and truly gifted with children. She will be an extraordinary asset to her next family, especially one welcoming a new baby. From day one, and for years to come, she’ll make your home feel calm, organized, and full of love.

If you have the chance to hire Denise, do not hesitate. She will change your life for the better.

We’d love to recommend our amazing nanny, Vale, who is now looking for a new position. She is truly wonderful — patient, loving, and always one step ahead.

Vale has over three years of experience working with twins. She started caring for twin girls when they were just 3 months old, providing full infant care and later transitioning to toddler care. She also occasionally babysits their 7-year-old brother.
She’s active, organized, and very engaging with the children, always planning fun, age-appropriate activities like trips to playgrounds, the zoo, and museums. Vale works closely with parents to build and follow routines for meals, naps, and activities.

Vale provides bilingual care (English and Spanish), is CPR certified, a safe driver, and COVID vaccinated. She’s also experienced working with diverse and queer families and caring for friendly pets. She’s incredibly responsible, trustworthy, and the kids absolutely adore her.

She recently started school, so her current availability is Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. She is looking for a position caring for a baby (she’s amazing with infants!) and is seeking a minimum of 35 hours per week, up to 40.
Any family would be lucky to have her!

Hi! I’m posting this post on behalf of our beloved nanny who was with us for 2 years (from the time my daughter was 2 months to 2 years, recently ended her time with us as our daughter transitioned into school). She is a bright, happy, positive, loving person who absolutely loves and cares for children. She is extremely punctual (never been late or called out unexpectedly) and responsible. She is very trustworthy and was able to take our daughter around the city by stroller/bus/train/cab to various activities, the park, and doctors visits. She fostered a love of reading in our daughter and helped to progress her speech and learning significantly. She is able to take the lead and notice/encourage all transitions (transitions to solids, changes in nap schedules, transition off bottle, potty training, etc). She does not require hand-holding, she is excellent at picking up on cues and meeting transitional needs. She performed any/all ancillary household nanny duties pertaining to children (cleaning up, maintaining tidy drawers and stroller, meal prep/cooking her meals, laundry, cleaning play area, etc).

Overall, we cannot recommend her enough – she is truly someone who has a real passion for childcare backed with significant experience (in children of all ages), who is trustworthy, clean, and able to translate her happy, positive personality on the kids she cares for. As a testament, we have been asked how we found her by numerous families during our time together! We hope we can aid in finding her a new family to shine her light on! If you’re interested pls message me id be happy to put you in touch! She is looking for a full time live out position & speaks fluent English.

Yuby cared for our son from the time he was 6 months old until he turned 2, and she became an invaluable part of our family. She cared for him with so much love, patience, and attentiveness, and we always knew he was in wonderful hands.

Every day, she took him outside for hours to explore, play, and socialize in different environments, playgrounds, parks and his friends playrooms. She found creative ways to engage him with neighborhood classes and was incredibly resourceful, discovering free programs at local recreation centers, libraries, and community events. Thanks to her, our son made many little friends and developed a strong sense of curiosity and confidence.

At home, she prepared healthy, homemade meals, chicken, beef, salmon, vegetables, pasta sauces, and yogurt parfaits, always with no added sugar. She handled his laundry, changed his sheets several times a week, gave him a bath every evening, kept his play area tidy, and cleaned the kitchen and dishwasher daily. She was diligent about diaper changes, proactive about his doctor visits, and never distracted by her phone.

Beyond her daily responsibilities, Yuby cared deeply about his emotional and intellectual development. She celebrated milestones with genuine joy and even organized his 1st and 2nd birthday parties with his neighborhood friends, which meant so much to us.

Our son adored her, as soon as he was able, he gave her a hug every day when she left. We will miss her greatly!

Due to changes in our childcare needs, our amazing nanny is looking to join a new family. We adore Melissa. She has helped our daughter flourish into a happy and resilient child over the past years. Melissa takes remarkable initiative in arranging playdates with children our daughter meets in classes, at the playground, school, or even through her own extensive network. These social interactions, carefully supervised by Melissa, have been instrumental in developing our daughter’s confidence and interpersonal abilities. I cannot overstate the positive impact Melissa’s care has had on our daughter’s development. She is incredibly creative in furthering our daughter’s learning through arts and crafts, physical activities, fine motor skills development, museum visits, songs, number/letter recognition, imaginative play, and more. She regularly identifies activities, classes and educational opportunities that align with our daughter’s interests. While we’re sad that our daughter is getting older and our childcare needs are changing, we know another family will benefit tremendously from Melissa’s love, guidance, and exceptional caregiving, just as we have. Melissa can be contacted at sthilairemelissa5@gmail.com or 201-455-9527. I can be reached at Claire.doucette@gmail.com

Britney was the full-time caretaker for my daughter when she was about ages 3-6, and Britney was a reliable, loving member of our household during that time.

She was playful and fun — she would proactively arrange playdates and spend entire days outside with my daughter and other children. Britney would get the kids jumping and dancing, playing freeze dance or other organized activities when she saw they needed a bit more structure. She formed a tight bond with some of the other nannies from my daughter’s preschool, so they had a nice support network, too. Britney was shuttling my daughter around a lot for those few years — to and from school, to playdates or gymnastics or swimming lessons (or taking my daughter swimming herself) and she never complained and had the patience of a saint to walk at my daughter’s pace. And somehow she’d still manage to have my kid home at the end of the day, bathed, a meal prepared for her and the house tidy.

Britney has excellent judgment. I always felt my child was safe in her care and if Britney felt they were not in a good situation, whether it was a child not making kind choices while playing with my daughter or a questionable environment, she was vocal and would advocate for herself and my daughter. She really does not tolerate someone being unkind or inappropriate, which I appreciate and think she set a good example for my daughter.

I trusted her completely when it came to my daughter’s safety and wellbeing. Britney was always early to arrive in the morning, early to pickups and great at communicating. She also became very attuned to my daughter’s moods and needs; if she noticed something seemed off emotionally or physically, she’d let me know immediately and we’d often work together to get to understand what was going on. She was firm and would hold boundaries, but still warm and loving.

Alejandra (Ale) joined our family when our son was 6 months old. We immediately loved her warmth and positive energy in our house. Ale brings experience in nutrition, in addition to her overall experience in childcare. This helped us as we were introducing our son to solids, and as we looked to wean him off the bottle. She immediately got our son onto a schedule, something we didn’t really know how to do! Ale has developed a wonderful bond with our son, she takes great care of him and helps keep us all organized. We’ve decided to enroll our son in a school in January, and are hoping to help Ale find her next family. Ale is a Spanish speaker, which has been great to expose him to Spanish. In addition to overall childcare, she manages all of his laundry and makes sure the house is always picked up (especially his things). She regularly takes him to the park, or other activities we find. She also likes to sing, read books, and keep our son laughing. (I should also say she always picks out the cutest outfits to put him in!). I work from home and always feel comfortable with Ale in the house – she finds a good balance to be in the apartment with me, but make sure that my son is out of my hair when I’m in meetings or busy. Any family would be lucky to have Ale taking care of their baby.

We met MariaRosa at the start of the pandemic when our oldest daughter had just turned one. We immediately felt a good connection and after a couple months began using her as our full time nanny. We never had to give much instruction, MariaRosa jumped right in and began helping us with everything. She was lovely with our daughter and kept her busy with activities and outings to the park. She kept on top of all of our daughters needs and would buy new outwear or shoes whenever she outgrew old items. She helped our daughter learn how to walk and was constantly working on helping her learn new words and songs. She kept our home tidy and our daughter’s room organized. She would box up old clothes as our daughter outgrew them and keep everything labeled. She did laundry for our whole family and helped make meals and snacks for our daughter. When our oldest started school she helped with school drop offs and pick ups and taking her to various after school activities. She would have everything ready like the ballet bag packed and soccer bag packed with all needed clothing changes and snacks and drinks. She also organized play dates with other Nanny’s and classmates after school. When our younger daughter was born she was there helping us the whole time. She stayed with our older daughter for three days while we were in the hospital and worked very long days in those early weeks helping in any way she could. She was so sweet and most people thought she was a relative. She helped watch our newborn daughter while our oldest was in school and then they would all go out together in the afternoons before returning for dinner. Last year both our girls were in school and she helped in the mornings with drop off and then would help with laundry and housework during the morning and then would do two different school pickups and took the girls to all their afternoon activities.

MariaRosa also traveled with my family a few times. She would have the girls packed beforehand and everything would be labeled by day. She helped watch the girls in transit and helped have them ready for each days activities and then watched them at the hotel or helped with bedtime routine each night.
A couple trips we took we left our girls at home and MariaRosa would stay with them while we were away.

I cannot sing her enough praise. She is truly an amazing nanny and we were so sad to part ways. She was with us for about five and a half years. We only parted ways because we had to move out of state for my husbands job. I’m happy to answer any additional questions you may have.

If you want someone who’s professional, experienced, and amazing with newborns, Tizzony is the one. She has over 7 years of experience and has worked with me as well as other families I know, always going above and beyond.

Tizzony is an overnight baby nurse, giving parents a chance to rest while knowing their baby is in safe, loving hands. She’s patient, caring, and knowledgeable, and I trusted her completely from the very first night. She also gives helpful tips and guidance to make those early weeks easier.

We can’t recommend her enough!

Jen seamlessly joined our family in January right after our son was born. She brought with her many years of experience and a sense of calm that instilled confidence in two new parents nervous about the transition back to work. She has been with us for four years, caring for our son and daughter since we returned to work after each was born. Our kids absolutely love her. We recently moved to New Jersey, which is why we are helping Jen to find a full-time position with a family she can grow with.

Jen is a knowledgeable and experienced childcare professional with 25+ years experience as a nanny working with all age kids, especially babies and toddlers. First and foremost, she is loving and patient. She has cared for our children (and for us) as though they are members of her own family. She is always attentive to our children’s ever evolving needs and has supported our family through many milestones – sleep training, learning to eat, physical milestones, potty training, welcoming a second child to the mix etc.. She has ensured that our children eat delicious and nutritious meals since she joined our family (our kids love her cooking!). She keeps the kids rooms and toys neat even with 2 kids constantly on the go, and the kids always have clean laundry and beds. She is always on time and is flexible to start early or stay later when we have a need that arises.

Jen also loves to be out and about with the kids, taking them around the neighborhood to parks and playgrounds, to gym & music classes, and organizing playdates. At home she sings and reads to them, and gets down on the floor with them to play. She sends pictures during the day so my husband and I feel a part of their adventures.

We cannot speak highly enough of Jen, and are happy to get on a reference call and share more about Jen live. She has become an important part of our family, and we are confident she will do the same with her next family.

Yvonne took care of our daughter from when she was 14 months old until now (27 months old) full time. She has been great with the transition from baby to toddler, helping transition from 2-1 nap, say bye to paci, and potty training.  She helps around the house with my daughter’s laundry (washes, folds, and puts away), family dishes, and organizing my daughter’s books/toys. She is flexible on timing and stays late whenever we need her to. She is extremely reliable and communicative – doesn’t call out sick and plans vacations around ours. 

Yvonne lives in Brooklyn and is open to many neighborhoods. In the West Village where we live, she has many nanny friends and knows all the best parks, playgrounds, libraries, free classes, etc. to take her to – she learned that very quickly and will adapt to any neighborhood. They have a special bond and we have felt completely safe with our daughter in Yvonne’s care. She reads and plays with my daughter constantly and has taught her colors, numbers, the alphabet, etc. 
In addition to caring for toddlers and kids, Yvonne has worked as a baby nanny and is CPR trained. 

We are recommending our nanny Martina she is amazing! She has been with us for 4 years. We met her while working in the Dominican Republic. She is very nurturing, patient, caring, reliable and responsible with a very positive attitude. She has taken great care of our daughter since she was 6 months old. Takes her to school, park, all daily activities, prepares her meals, does her laundry and all cleaning related to her. Whenever we need her off her working schedule, she is always available. Our daughter speaks and understands almost everything in Spanish as that is what she speaks. We are moving out of state, Unfortunately the commuting will be impossible for her. We are hoping our loss is your gain.
Please feel free to contact me

We’ve been lucky to have Babita with our 2.5 year-old son since he was a month old. In her prior position, she was with the same family for 13 years. From the start, she’s been a reliable, nurturing, confident, and maternal presence in our home. Babita is organized, communicative throughout the day, and punctual. She keeps our son actively engaged and takes him out daily – to school, parks, the library, music/art/swim classes, and playdates. She is a spectacular cook and regularly prepares meals for our son. She’s thoughtful about what we feed him and has even made natural remedies for our family when any one of us got sick.

During naptime, Babita helps with our laundry, dishes, and keeps our home tidy. My husband and I work long hours and travel frequently; on those days, she’s open and willing to stay late and/or come in early. She often anticipates our needs before we even realize, whether it’s packing for a trip, reorganizing our son’s clothes, reminding me to restock essentials, meal prepping, grocery shopping, etc. Her independence and consistent support around the house has been such a relief for us.

We’d absolutely love to keep Babita as long as possible, but with our son in pre-school, we are looking for a part-time nanny. While she’d prefer to start with a newborn, she’s experienced with children of all ages. Babita is very familiar with downtown Tribeca/Fidi but is open to any location in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Any family would be thrilled and at peace to have her in their lives! Please feel free to reach out to her directly and/or to me for more detail.
