Dear Families, With our two children entering school in September, it is with great sadness that we can no longer keep our beloved nanny, Jasmin, on a full-time basis. Jasmin has been there with us since the beginning when our oldest was 3 months-old and now 6 years later a new family will have the honor of welcoming her into their home. To say she is a member of our family is an understatement. Since the moment she came into our lives our family fell in love with her, and her care and devotion to our kids is sincere and heartfelt. One of Jasmin’s great skills is her resourcefulness. When our son was 18 months we moved to a new neighborhood, and didn’t have any friends or a network of other families. Within a day, Jasmin had play dates booked, music and art classes scheduled, and knew all the best playgrounds in the neighborhood. She and our son were already fully part of the community. I’ll never forget how reassuring that felt, and how impressed I was with her. Jasmin is in search of a full-time position. She has a certificate in early childhood education, has a drivers’ license, and is CPR and first aid certified. She is also a US citizen, and happy to be paid on the books. She is punctual, flexible with last minute late nights, updates us throughout the day with pictures and texts, and every evening we come home to a clean and orderly home. She cooks a wide variety of lunches and dinners that our children have learned to love (even fish and plenty of veggies!), and keeps our kids neat, clean, scheduled, respectful, napped, hydrated, safe and sun-screened! I couldn’t have imagined anyone would love and care for our children as much as we do, but Jasmin is special. I can’t count how many times a neighborhood parent has randomly come up to me to tell me how amazing Jasmin is with our kids, and how safe and careful she is when they are out and about. I never could have imagined we’d be so lucky. If you want to rest easy knowing your kids are in the most caring, smart and incredibly loving hands, invite Jasmin into your lives and watch the magic. If you have any questions please feel free to reach to me at 917-515-5635

Great opportunity to engage a responsible, caring nanny with infant to high-school experience to grow with your family. Guitrie has been a loving, attentive caregiver to our children for 15 years. She began working for our family when our daughter was born, greeted our son on his first day home from the hospital and provided care and guidance through their infancy, toddler, pre-school and school years. Guitrie is dependable, on-time and organized, effectively monitoring the various activities of each of the children to assure they were where they needed to be, and picked up promptly. Now that the children are 13 and 15, we have no further need of her full-time services. As infants, Guitrie helped maintain sleep schedules, feeding times, outings and supported any of our parenting requests. As our children grew, Guitrie would bring them to activities, preschool, birthday parties, and host playdates for their friends. On occasion, she would cook a healthy dinner (including managing around food allergies), assure attention to homework, and stay late if we had an engagement. Guitrie also handled the children’s laundry and light housework. Please contact Guitrie directly on her cell.

AMAZING & LOVING NANNY AVAILABLE STARTING IN AUGUST For anyone looking for an absolutely incredible full-time nanny to start in August, you need to meet our current nanny Monika. Monika has been with our son since he was 5 months old and it has always been the plan that he would transition into daycare at 15 months (we actually considered not putting him in just because we loved Monika so much). Monika is trusting, caring, thoughtful, energetic, reliable, punctual, and has become a true member of our family in a short amount of time. She has treated and cared for our son as if he was her own. She is very engaging with our son and they spend most of their day (outside of napping) out and about in classes, at the library, and at the parks playing with other children. She always has pictures, videos, and a summary of the day ready for us when we get home so we can see the fun they had and the general mood our son was in. She has experience with multiple families in NYC of various ages (mostly under the age of 3) and I really could not recommend anyone more. Monika truly loves our boy and he truly loves her! We really want to find a great family for her and help another family find an amazing person like Monika! PM me if you are interested.

As September and school time arrives we will be sadly parting with our great nanny who has given an awesome care to our baby. She is very trustworthy and has years of experience taking care of children, knows east side of Manhattan and all the available playgrounds/libraries as well as other nannies. She has been very on-time and attentive to the baby's need. Can arrange playmates with other nannies and is very fluent in English. Among her best positive points is that she listens well to instructions and makes sure to keep the order in the household as it usually is. Just enough to say, we don't believe we could find a nanny like her if we need one in future. Very reasonable pay for the city. Please contact show contact info to discuss more.

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

Parent Reference

Lorna is the consummate nanny. She is everything any parent could hope for in the person to whom they turn over the incredible responsibility for their children. Beyond the baseline expectations of being caring, thoughtful, responsible, and reliable, the thing that we’ve found most exceptional about Lorna is the fact that she considers herself a teacher as much as a nanny. She has become deeply invested in our children’s growth and development in every respect. She has always deliberately carved out time to work with them on age-appropriate skills as they’ve grown, and she does so in a way that’s integrated into their daily routines and is fun - not in any sort of rigid, rote manner. At all ages, Lorna has always been proactive about ensuring our kids have fun, stimulating activities and play dates scheduled. But she’s also respectful of their own wishes (encouraging them to explore, but never forcing them to do anything they're clearly uncomfortable doing), and also of our desire that they not be over-scheduled and that have their own unstructured time. She’s also respectful of our wishes around screen-time, foods the kids eat, how we’d like homework done, and other details. We have a good line of communication that is definitely a two-way street. I believe it’s a unique skill that enables one to enter into a family’s home and understand their internal dynamic and parenting styles, and then navigate toward what’s right for kids and parents alike. Lorna’s been able to do that with us. One final important thing to note about Lorna is the immense pride she takes in the kids she helps raise. I see it in the way she talks about my kids and in the way she talks about the kids from her other families, many of whom she remains in close touch with. She takes her job very seriously.

Highly recommending our nanny Vivian Jones (Vivi). Vivi has been with us for almost 3 years and has cared for our 2 toddlers and baby all day while my wife and I are at work. She also keeps the house immaculately clean and tidy. If she sounds like a superwoman, it's because she is. We don't know how she does it all. She previously was the nanny for one of my wife's colleagues, and she cared for their children for over 10 years, one of who had a learning disability, which brings me to the primary qualities that set Vivi apart: She is patient, and passionate about early education and children's learning. She will begin speaking and teaching basics like colors, shapes, letters, numbers even to babies of a few months old, and continues it every day, all day. You won't see her talking or texting on her phone while watching the kids. She has grown children of her own and she is not a member of the younger phone-addicted generations. Our toddlers are way ahead of most of their peers in terms of numbers and reading, according to their teachers, and I'm convinced it's because she focused on learning all day with them. Secondly, she was instrumental in sleep training and potty training. Even while caring for our two toddlers in the evenings she still manages to give our newborn (3 months) a bath every night. She is originally from Barbados but has been living in Brooklyn for many years (legal US citizen). Any questions you have feel free to reach out to me directly, my name is Tom, (401) 573-5937 or to her directly: [email protected] if you’re interested.

Liza is like family to our little boy. His face lights up each morning when she walks in the door and the moment we met her – things just felt right. When we spoke with her references, they all adored her, which sealed the deal for us. She’s incredibly warm, loving, and has such a sweet way with him, frankly I’ll find myself peeking over at them to get some tips because she just has a natural way with kids that is powerful. She has been with us since he was 3 ½ months old (now 17 months), and the hardest part about moving out of the area has been knowing how much my son will miss her. She gives him her full attention, takes him to the park, to the library for story time, and constantly reads and sings to him. We have peace of mind when we go to work as we know our son is with someone who truly loves and cares for him, who we trust completely. We are sad that our move won’t allow us to keep her, but hope that our loss will be another’s gain. Available late August.

Mingmar is an exceptional and loving nanny: she takes wonderful care of our 2-year old daughter, and in general just makes life so much easier for all of us. She is gentle and calm, careful and fun--literally everything you want in someone watching over your child. She cooks healthy meals and leaves enough left over for dinner (she'll make enough for you too, if you ask!), she takes her to the park and to playgrounds and the zoo and museums and to the library and on playdates, gets down on the floor to play with her, teaches her songs and manners and letters, reads to her and does her hair and takes her to classes. When we travel, my daughter asks when she'll get to see Mingmar again. Our daughter will be starting daycare in a month, but we're truly so sad to lose such a wonderful nanny. She's never on her phone, keeps our whole apartment neat as a pin, and is absolutely trustworthy. She's never been late, and she and my daughter really love each other. She's wonderful: other parents, friends, and neighbors have all remarked on what a wonderful nanny she is.

If you are looking for a kind, loving, honest and trust-worthy person to take care of your children, look no further. Anita has been working with us as a full time live-in nanny for our 2 kids (12,6) for almost 5 years. Despite having somewhat of a long commute, she was always on-time or early. Since day one, we felt 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. Anita has been dedicated and has kept a close eye on the kids, especially on the playground or outdoors without getting distracted by conversations or devices. She is mindful of their needs which is exactly what you want from someone watching your kids- concerned about their safety, making sure they eat healthy balanced meals, and are engaged with fun activities. Her job responsibilities include getting the kids ready for school, picking them up after school, arranging play dates, cooking healthy meals for the family and laundry- all while keeping the house tidy and helping teach the kids to clean up after themselves. Anita has been great at staying consistent with our household rules to help our kids learn to be respectful, self-sufficient and well-behaved... and the kids love her!!! She is constantly trying to improve herself and enrolled in nanny training and CPR skills. She has also take courses in nutritional needs for children. She maintains a healthy regimen for herself and has also been extremely careful about caring for our children. Having a green thumb, she got our children interested in gardening and harvesting foods from the garden. She has also functioned as a housekeeper lately, with the kids getting more independent and has also coordinated with our cleaning person or yard guy, leaving us with less to worry about at home. She also supports several humanitarian causes back home in Nepal. We are so sorry to see her got and will miss her terribly. Our needs have changed as our kids have grown older and we need a part-time nanny now. We are confident that you will not have any complaints if you decide to hire Anita.

We want to help Janet find the perfect family after almost five years as a crucial part of our own family caring for our daughter since she was six months old. Now that we are splitting time between NYC and Connecticut, Janet is seeking a full time position, preferably in Manhattan or Brooklyn. Janet is professional while at the same time providing lots of love, affection and support to our daughter. She is an experienced caregiver with past experience with twins (including her own twin sons who are now fully grown). Over the years, I have received unsolicited feedback from other parents and teachers about Janet’s attentiveness, care and love for our daughter. She takes her responsibilities as a caregiver seriously. She is always prepared and thinking ahead and is great at setting up play dates - she makes a special effort to schedule play dates with children that will bring out the best in our daughter and help her learn new things. Her next family will be lucky to work with her.

Wendy has been with us for just over three months as a baby nurse for our younger baby and she is absolutely wonderful. Between our older baby and now the younger one, we've had three baby nurses and she is without equal imho. She also does nanny work and, in fact, just filled in for our nanny yesterday and was wonderful for big brother (who didn't know her as he's asleep when she arrives for nighttime nursing) as well as for the littler one, who knows her well. She was great with both of them! And she's always eager to help, responsive, respectful of parents' wants, attentive, and caring. We truly, truly love her. And if your schedule and hers don't align, she has friends who she can also recommend for full and/or part time.

Our family needs are changing & unfortunately (for us), we need to let Coleen move on to another family. She has 28 years of experience & came highly recommended from the previous families she worked for. She is loving & caring, doesn’t think twice to get on the floor & play with my daughter. Coleen talks to my daughter all the time, reading books, interacting with her - trying to get her to hit all of those milestones! My daughter loves songs & Coleen is often singing to her, which calms her down and makes naptime a breeze! Aside from keeping my baby safe and happy, she is always on time & extremely reliable. She loves to keep active, so she would take my daughter out multiple times a day (rain or shine) to go do activities, make friends or go to classes. She takes care of all her needs & also keeps the apartment extra clean & tidy! Beyond that she is professional, and will always defer to you as being the parent. She has such a gift with babies -- she is ideally looking for a family who has a young baby and is returning to work. Any family would be lucky to have her! Please message/email me if you are interested or reach out to her directly at (347)345-6487.

We are so lucky to have had Nalini as our son's nanny for a little over a year (our son is 16 months). While we always thought she would be with us forever, we are moving out of NYC for a job opportunity and want to make sure she is in good hands as she has been instrumental in our son's development. Nalini has close to 30 years of experience being a nanny and it shows. As much preparation and reading we have done to stay ahead of our son's development, Nalini has always been one step ahead of the game. Our son is a very loving, sweet and socially intelligent toddler and that is largely due to Nalini's careful attention and hard work. When our son is awake she is 100% dedicated to him, never distracted by her phone, and constantly talking or lovingly singing to him. When he is asleep she not only works tirelessly to make him food and do his laundry but she also takes such great care of us by doing our laundry and keeping things spotless. She is incredibly reliable, safe, always on time, and a joy to have in our family. We recommend Nalini without any reservations and we know you will find her to be as amazing as we do. Please feel free to call us or contact her directly.

Soonie took care of my son from 4 months until 3 1/2. She was an integral part of our family and one that we would have not been able to survive without her! She has decades of experience working with families in NYC. She was wonderful when my son was a baby and as he grew, her care for him grew as well. We called her the baby genie when she same to us. In an instant she had him swaddled and asleep! We were thrilled! She is super willing to pitch in, help in anything that was needed and never complained. Her duties were mainly focused around our sons needs. She'd do his laundry and put it away, clean his room, and light cleaning around the home when our son was sleeping. She was always on time and willing to go the extra mile for us. She'd explore the neighborhood and always have him out playing and enjoying the outdoors and making friends with the other children in the library/parks. She was always calm and patient with him and up for any game/book that he wanted and a great energy all around. She adhered to our requested schedule and always came with suggestions to improve. She is a very loving and great individual. Your family will be lucky to have her.

Hi mamas. We just moved out of the city and are excited about the ‘suburban’ adventure. We will miss the tasty restaurants, some conveniences (my threading salon is a block away eeek!) and most of all our nanny, Nisha!! Unfortunately, the commute will be too long for her from Queens to NJ. Therefore, we are looking for a kind, loving family who is interested in a warm, caring, loving full-time nanny. Nisha Aunty, as we call her, has been with us for over 4.5 years since our daughter was 4 months old. She has two grown children and has been a nanny for over 17 years. Her daughter is a MD in residency and her son owns his own business. Because of her family situation she has also demonstrated great flexibility with my family’s crazy work schedules coming early or staying late when needed. She has lived in the US for over 30 years and is a US citizen. We lived in the Financial District, so she is familiar with downtown but she’s open to anywhere in the city. We can't say enough good things about our nanny. She dotes on our daughter and they have an incredibly tight bond so much so that people often ask if she’s her grandmother. We love her and consider her part of our family. She's Indian and is fluent in Hindi and Gujarati, so our daughter has gotten immense exposure to our culture and language. Her English is good but not great (verbal is good/written ok) but I’ve chosen to speak with her in Gujarati quite honestly to practice myself. That said, she gets along with my daughter’s friends’ nannies and communicates with them in English. Nisha Aunty has great common sense and if she doesn’t know something once you show her once she gets it. She is a great cook—my daughter eats Indian food almost every night which she makes for her a few times per week and will cook fresh roti’s for after school. When we hired her, Nisha Aunty was responsible for the baby and bathing/cleaning bottles/doing laundry/general tidiness for my daughter. As the years have progressed and when my daughter is in school, she now helps with household laundry and occasionally cooks us Indian food (when we can get our grocery list and act together.) She’s a great cook, in fact our friends are going to miss her butter chicken! Please let us know if you're interested or know of anyone who would be interested. She will be a great addition to your family. Please email me at [email protected] with any questions or feel free to reach out to Nisha at 718-607-1925. Kind regards, Nimisha (Arya, 5)

I highly recommend Daniesha for a nanny position. She was a lifesaver for our family and will forever be a part of our family. She started with us when our little one was just 2 months old - very hands on, attention to detail and very clean. We never had to worry about anything, being first time parents and all, because Daniesha always made sure everything was taken care of. She was really good at communicating with us, she would send us numerous videos and pictures throughout the day, so we would always know where and what they were up to. She did everything for our daughter; sleep trained, introduced solids, sterilized utensils, laundry, keeping her room and play area clean, EVERYTHING! Daniesha effortlessly found a small group of nannies with similarly-aged children, and organized play dates, park meet-ups and other group outings. She also found activities/classes around the area to take my daughter to. One thing that we always admired the most about Daniesha is that she is very professional. This was more than a job to her - she genuinely cared for our daughter and treated her like her own. We have to give all thanks to her for how well our child has blossomed into a beautiful social butterfly, very smart and outgoing. We were so sad when we decided to move out of state because that meant losing her, and we still get emotional to this day because our daughter constantly ask for her. We know she will be an amazing addition to the next family that gets her. She is looking for full time and available ASAP.

NANNY AVAILABLE: Experienced and fun nanny is available full-time for infant(s) Hi families, We are posting about our former nanny's availability to find her a wonderful new family or nanny share with a baby/babies, full-time and on the books. We have moved away from Brooklyn, and the other family in our nanny share planned from the onset to try daycare after a year, so Donna has become available. Donna was with our nanny share for the past year and cared for our two babies since they were ~5mo. She is experienced with nanny shares, caring for twins as well as single babies and balancing the needs and styles of two families with graciousness and flexibility; she did a nanny share before ours too. Donna is punctual and reliable (has always been on time and typically arrives early, and flexible to help with date nights and early mornings). She's capable, fun, energetic yet easygoing, friendly and sociable. She has cared for our babies from the early days of nap training, to starting solids, and now to the wilder days of toddlers zipping around the house, and she's done it all with a great attitude. The babies have a lot of fun with her. Donna has been instrumental in keeping the babies on a schedule as they developed and their needs evolved. She enjoys bringing them out for playground time, classes, visits to the library or our building lounge to socialize with other children. She helped guide them through their milestones, learning words and habits, and she has kept us updated on their new developments and sends photos/videos of their day which we appreciate. Most of all, Donna loves our babies and we've had the assurance that they are in safe hands. We hope her next family is a good match for her and we would be happy to answer your questions. Note: Donna is looking to work with infants (she was also a baby nurse), as she's looking for a family she can grow with from babyhood to the toddler years. She's available to start as soon as the right opportunity comes along and is looking to be located in the Brooklyn Heights / Downtown Brooklyn / Cobble Hill / Dumbo / Lower Manhattan areas but is open to surrounding neighborhoods too. She's looking for full-time positions only and works *on* the books. For a nanny share, minimal stairs would be preferred given logistics of overseeing the safety of two babies and a double stroller become difficult in a walk-up building.

She helped us from the early days with boys, she is very engaged, organized, sets up playdates, etc. She cooks for them, healthy meals. She took them to classes and now to part-time nursery that they are attending. She is really an amazing nanny and very reliable.

Our baby had colic as a newborn and Doreen was the only person who could sooth her. Doreen is very active and did a great job of finding developmentally appropriate activities in the neighborhood for our baby as she got older and friends for our older daughter to play with. People in the neighborhood often stop us to tell us how wonderful Doreen is with our daughters when they see her around. Any family would be very lucky to work with her! Doreen is open to working with children of all ages but is particularly interested in working with newborns. I’m happy to speak with you if you have any questions or you can contact Doreen directly. Doreen also has many other glowing references.

If you are looking for a kind, attentive, careful, loving nanny - look no further. Ene has been a part of our family since she started with us as a full time nanny when Nico was just 6 weeks old. Nico is our first child, and we are both full time working physicians. We were extremely anxious at first to be leaving our newborn child, but Ene immediately put us at ease. She is a skilled caretaker while being deferential to us as parents. Ene always followed our directions (we are Type-A personalities) to the tee. When Nico had a cold, she was comfortable taking his temperature and kept us briefed on how he was doing frequently throughout the day. She is energetic, intelligent and interacts beautifully with Nico - playing with him, reading to him, and taking him on walks in the neighborhood. She is comfortable doing tummy time and feeding on a schedule as per our directions. Ene is CPR certified and has a recent TDAP and influenza vaccine. She helps tidy our apartment (light cleaning) and do laundry for the baby which is immensely helpful (who knew babies could produce so many dirty clothes). She was facile with using fresh/frozen breast milk and sterilizing the equipment and bottles. She even helped drop our dog at daycare when we are running late. She is flexible on hours, frequently coming early or staying late if we were stuck at work. She is ALWAYS on time and extremely dependable. She sends us pictures of Nico throughout the day so we can remain connected even while at work. We would have definitely kept Ene as Nico's nanny if we were staying in NYC, but alas, we moved to Maine for work. She worked with us for about 3 months and we wish she could have moved to Maine with us. She truly is a catch for any family lucky enough to hire her. She is ready to start anytime. I would be glad to speak to anybody who has questions.

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

Shanta has been our nanny for five years, starting in June 2014, when our oldest son was 3 months old. We now have two sons, aged 4 (Francis) and 5 (Jack). Both boys will be in school full-time in the fall, so we won’t need Shanta’s services anymore. Shanta is a member of the family now and we’re incredibly sad that she’s leaving us. Shanta came at the recommendation of my sister’s nanny and has been an extraordinarily loyal and dependable employee. She commutes over one hour each way and even with train troubles is on time every day. She has worked with us to help with extra coverage when we need it, including staying late for us on short notice, babysitting on weekends and even staying overnight with the boys when my wife, Kim, and I traveled for weekend vacations. Shanta has four sons of her own and has been a nanny/baby nurse for almost 17 years, and we benefited greatly from her experience. We have had great communication and she understands what we need, as parents, so that we’re comfortable leaving our children for the day. The best part about Shanta is that my wife and I have never had any concern as to what the boys were up to when they were with her. She has done all the practical things – getting them dressed, fed, napped, entertained – in addition to providing a warm and safe environment. The boys are active and rambunctious and she makes sure that they’re outside and active so that they’ve spent as much energy as possible by the time we get home from work. And, of course, most importantly, the boys love Shanta. She spoils them and loves them and frankly, they’ll be devastated when she leaves. My wife Kim and I enthusiastically recommend Shanta without reservation and we are happy to answer any questions any prospective employee may have about her.

Our nanny Tina is seeking a full time position with the right family because after four years together, we are relocating out of state. Tina has more than 15 years of experience as a nanny. She is skilled, calm and nurturing with kids and reliable and professional with adults. Each family with whom she has worked over the years holds on to her for as long as possible and grows quite attached to her. She regularly and effectively arranges plans for our children, be it play dates with friends or adventures around the city to attractions of interest. For example when my 7-yr old son’s school was closed for teacher development in the spring, she made a plan to bring him downtown on the subway to walk across the Brooklyn bridge. They packed water, snacks, hats, and comfy shoes and he thought it was awesome. She builds collaborative, trusting relationships with other caregivers and parents in the neighborhood. Indeed, four separate parents in our neighborhood who have come to know her have asked me about Tina’s availability over the years. For us, she has easily dealt with pickup at two different schools, two different school calendars, and shuttling the kids around to various extracurricular activities and play dates. My kids are very attached to her because they know she loves them and is there for them; they feel her nurturing, affirming and emotionally safe presence very deeply. Knowing this has allowed me to give my best to my job even while my husband, who is a critical care doc, maintains intense hours, including nights. Finally she also keeps our apartment extremely neat, which for me is kind of a magical marvel. Her services include: - prepping dinner for the kids each day - making their beds each day and changing their sheets as needed - bathing them - doing their laundry and organizing their bureaus/closets - providing additional hours on very short notice - staying completely on top of where the children need to be and when, and where their stuff is. The family she works with next will be extremely fortunate to have her in their lives. Please message me to request additional information and contact info. Warm regards, Christina

I highly recommend Ancella. She has many years of experience with newborns and young toddlers and she has become a wonderful part of our family. Ancella has been with us for the past 5 years, and she was with a friend of ours for several years before that. She started with us as a baby nurse when our daughter was 2 months. We are really sad to let her go, but our girl is heading to kindergarten and our needs have changed. Ancella is reliable, punctual and extremely trustworthy. She instilled good behavior and disciplined our daughter when needed, in a very kind and caring way. She is responsible, incredibly knowledgeable with newborns, very loyal and committed to her job. My daughter respects and adores her and I trust her completely. She is the only person I would leave my daughter with overnight or for a weekend. We look forward to continuing to have her in our lives and want to ensure that she lands in a new place with a wonderful family. She would prefer to work in Manhattan with a newborn. She is looking for a full time live out position. Starting immediately.

Parent Reference

Lisa has worked with our family for more than seven years, since our older daughter was five months old. We would be happy to have her continue to work for us part time while she works part time for someone else, but of course want her to figure out what is best for her, so she is alternatively looking for full time positions. She is very flexible time-wise and would be fine with a position that started early in the morning. She also is very often available to sit on evenings and weekends. Lisa has more than 20 years of experience as a nanny and is amazing with kids of all ages. She has stayed with each family she’s worked with for many years and stays in touch with all of her former employers. She taught both of our kids to be great nappers when they were babies, cooked homemade baby food for them, toilet trained both kids in record time, and was just always cautious and responsible. She was always helpful with baby advice but also was never pushy about it at all. She kept detailed records of feedings, diapers, etc. when the kids were little. She does all of the kids’ laundry, keeps the apartment very neat, and often takes it upon herself to help with other organizational things – for example she periodically goes through all of the kids’ clothes to pull out things they’ve grown out of, and she always switches around their closets and drawers for the seasons without being asked. As our girls have grown up Lisa has continued to be a wonderful presence in their lives. She is truly part of the family – our kids always want to invite her to their birthday parties, ballet recitals etc. and she is always happy to be there. She is great about making plans for them and has excellent relationships with babysitters and parents in the neighborhood. She makes sure they do their homework and makes their dinner and their lunches for the next day. She deals with pickup at two different schools and shuttling the kids around to various extracurricular activities. In addition, Lisa has been absolutely stellar while we’ve gone through a divorce over the past year. On top of everything else, she now has to handle two different apartments and a fairly complicated custody schedule, and she is always on top of where the kids need to be and where all of their stuff needs to be. We can’t recommend Lisa more highly and want to make sure that she figures out the next best step for her. Of course we are happy to provide any additional information.

Our amazing nanny KC has been with us for almost 2 years caring for our son who is now 2.5. KC has been a professional nanny for 10 years and has experience caring for newborns, toddlers, and young children. She is energetic, flexible, patient, kind, loving, reliable, just to name a few of the characteristics she embodies. Our son has learned so much in the time that she has been with us and is always happy to see her when she arrives. Not only has she taught our son so much and made him feel safe and loved while my husband and I work, but she continues to better herself as a nanny by taking a course on early literacy, attending a nanny workshop on family relationships, and currently is enrolled in a course through Cornell University on nanny training. We have made the move to the ‘burbs in NJ and while we were both hopeful our partnership could continue, the commute is simply too far. While I hate that we are losing her, we are so lucky to have had her these past 2 years. We cannot recommend KC highly enough and hope another family is lucky enough to find her. We are looking to make the transition at the end of August with some flexibility there. Contact me, Stephanie, for any questions you may have. KC can also be contacted.

We are making our way to the NJ suburbs which would be too far for Silvia to travel. She is wonderful. Silvia has been with us for all of Luke’s six years on the planet. It is hard to imagine functioning without her. I will gladly gush further to folks who might be interested. A few short notes below: • Excellent judgement and integrity. I trust her with anything – beyond caring for Luke she is a ‘trusted advisor’ to me! • Very smart – thinks ahead, just gets it • Loving and warm – She is truly Luke’s other mom • Super fun – will organize fun activities with Luke and other kids – trips to the Zoo, Coney Island, Holiday parties with crafts, events at the Library. She has energy like no one I’ve ever seen and could handle much larger families. Very social and has made many friends in our neighborhood. • Beyond reliable – I think she has taken maybe three sick days in six years. • Flexible – willing to stay late or come early when needed. Very flexible on vacation schedules – she follows whatever we schedule for ourselves. On occasion, Luke will sleep over at her house, which he loves. • Bi-lingual – Spanish/English. Luke is quite fluent in Spanish thanks to Silvia. Her communication in English is excellent though best in person. • Very good cook (though we have not asked this of her often) • Lives in Queens • 3 kids of her own – two girls in college and one boy is a Sophomore in high-school – all great kids! Of all the difficulty with moving, giving Silvia up is the hardest part. Truly family.

She helps to make meals for my daughter and help with light cleaning (laundry, dishes) when possible which was always a huge help. Would definitely recommend her help!

Lorraine is the perfect nanny. She has been part of our family for almost a year (since my daughter was 8 months old), and from the very beginning, I have been struck by her warmth and her dedication to my child's well-being and development. She provides impeccable physical, emotional, and intellectual care. Lorraine fills the days with activities and is a whiz at finding free and engaging things to do (even on rainy and snowy days). My daughter always smiles when Lorraine arrives and hugs her when she leaves. I am a first-time mom, and every day has its own adventure. I've come to rely on Lorraine for her good advice and support; she is helpful without being overbearing and invasive. As I worked from home for several months, I have seen Lorraine's child-care abilities first-hand. Lorraine respects my young daughter as a person, talks to her without condescension, is always patient, and responds to my child's needs and non-verbal requests. I have also noticed that Lorraine effectively creates boundaries and constructively works with my daughter through frustrations, challenges, and tantrums. She is very responsive by text and proactively sends photos and videos during the day. Additionally, she is always on time and has never called out unexpectedly. Lorraine understands that as with any family with a young child, flexibility is key; she makes herself available. Lorraine has over 15 years of experience working with newborns, infants, toddlers, and children, and she is child-care certified.

We hired Celeste as our nanny when my older son was four months old, and it was one of the best decisions we have ever made. My two sons are now six and three, and Celeste has done an amazing job helping to raise them. We recently moved away from Brooklyn, and so could no longer keep Celeste as our nanny. If you are reading this and considering her as a nanny, my advice to you is to hire her as quickly as you can. She is fantastic, and I enthusiastically and sincerely recommend her to care for your children. Celeste is kind and caring. When my sons were infants, she took expert care of them from naps, feeding, changing, baths, etc. As they grew, she aided their development at every stage. She worked with them on learning to walk, staying safe, eating solid foods, and toilet training. Celeste did a particularly great job with them learning their letters and numbers. She is patient and able to deal with the squabbling of two young boys. Celeste would talk was us about different issues that came up, and we valued her input and experience. We always felt that Celeste was a member of our team, working together towards the shared goal of raising our children. We knew that we could count on Celeste to take care of our children in the way that we wanted. Celeste is reliable and trust-worthy. During the week, I knew that I could trust Celeste to get in touch if she needed to, and she was always very responsive if we had questions. My wife and I both work in demanding jobs, and Celeste was also flexible if we had unexpected glitches in our own schedules. She was often able to work extra hours if we had evening plans, whether during the week or on weekends. On occasion we traveled out of town for several days, and left the kids with Celeste while she stayed in our apartment. We never had a moment’s hesitation leaving Celeste in charge. Celeste was a valuable part of our family and she took care of our children as if they were her own. In speaking with friends about their child-care situations, I can honestly say that I have felt so lucky that we had the best possible situation with Celeste. I would urge you to please reach out to me either by phone or email so that I can tell you more about how happy we have been with Celeste and answer any questions you might have.

I highly recommend Natasha for a nanny position. Natasha has worked for our family for just over two years—caring for our now two-and-a-half year old daughter since she was five months old. And she quickly became a member of our extended family (and she will continue to be a member of our extended family when we move to the suburbs this summer). There are three qualities that separate Natasha from other nannies: First, she is a professional. Natasha has more than twenty years of experience caring for children, and it shows. She helped us sleep train our daughter and get her on a regular nap schedule, transition to solid foods, handle stuffy noses and high fevers and stomach bugs, and whatever else our daughter threw at us. And while she comes with an unparalleled depth of experience, she always took our lead and did things our way. She is also always punctual and flexible when we need her to stay late or adjust her hours. Second, she is upbeat and outgoing. It was important to us that Natasha keep our daughter active and regularly socialize with other children her age. Natasha effortlessly found a small group of nannies with similarly-aged children, and, to this day, organizes play dates, park meet-ups, and other group outings with these children and their caretakers (who our daughter fondly calls her best friends). Because of Natasha, our daughter has become more social and outgoing. Finally, she genuinely loves our daughter. This is more than a job to her. The fact that Natasha, to this day, has relationships with her former employers and their children (some of whom are now grown) is a testament to the special bond she builds with the families for which she works. Leaving your new baby to return to work is never easy, but, for me, I was comfortable going back to work knowing that my daughter was in Natasha’s safe, loving hands. I couldn’t have transitioned back to work with anyone else, and we are so very sad to lose her when we move to the suburbs later this summer.

Parent Reference

Lorna Simon was our nanny for over six years. We first met Lorna in 2012, when our daughter (now six) was 1 month old. Lorna first spent weekends with us, and by the time our daughter was 2 months old, she had accepted a position as full-time nanny. In 2015, our son was born, and Lorna couldn’t have been more excited for the new baby. Our children are getting older, and they now have full time summer camp and school schedules, and a full-time nanny position no longer worked for our family, which is why Lorna is now available again. Lorna has the finest character; she is loving, kind, generous with her time, and a truly good person. She is incredibly knowledgeable about babies, and during the early months for both children she helped us carefully track diaries of when they had dirty diapers, and feeding schedules. When we first met Lorna I was in the incredibly lucky position of having her recommended to me by my own childhood nanny, and so from day 1 I never had any doubts about her reliability or kindness when leaving my children with her. But while that “family” connection was meaningful, it was also unnecessary, as the way that Lorna looked after our children was exceptional, and my husband I trusted her implicitly. As our kids got older, Lorna was always ready to play board games with them, or oversee art projects. She’s also very social, and our children’s social life was 20% my setting up playdates, and 80% Lorna befriending other nannies — and moms. Lorna was always willing to take them to a park or someone’s home, or host at ours, as the case might have been. She was always wonderful in making sure that if there was an opportunity for a playdate or for extra time with other children in the park, our kids were part of the fun. Lorna is also an amazing cook, and the children had great, healthful meals every day. While the children were young, Lorna had always lightly tidied the house and been responsible for their rooms and cleaning, but in her usually low-key style, she was open to adapting as needs shifted. In the recent years, as school schedules have lengthened, Lorna has been very flexible in terms of taking on housekeeping work for us, so that we could extend her tenure with our family. Finally - one example of the close bond Lorna has forged with our family and of her kind nature, is that we had determined in early June that we would be parting ways, which was of course a difficult conversation for everyone. In late June Lorna attended our son’s 4th birthday — not only did she attend — but she was also the only guest that not only gave our son a gift, but our daughter a gift as well. Lorna truly delights in babies and little children, and any family she works with will be lucky to have such a kind, loving, trustworthy person as part of their home. I’m available to speak, should you like that. I may be reached at 917.378.2817 or at [email protected]

She loves arts and crafts and we often come home to our daughter fully immersed in a painting project or hear Maxine and our daughter singing, dancing and laughing together. Maxine is responsible, caring and kind but disciplines when needed. She sends videos and pictures throughout the day to let us know what they are up to. Maxine does not spend her time on her cell phone at the playgrounds, but plays with our daughter and other kids. Several times we have been approached by other moms at the playground and even shopkeepers in the street, telling us what a great caregiver we have. They recognize our daughter and say they see her with her fun caregiver during the week. Our daughter is always happy to see Maxine and we have always felt very comfortable leaving her in Maxine’s care since she makes security a priority. We cannot say enough good things about her! She has close to 15 years experiences with newborns, toddlers and preschoolers. We know Maxine will love and care for any child as she has for ours.

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

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

Drupatti ("Rupa") Isaac is a wonderful nanny, and we feel very lucky to have found her. She has been taking care of our toddler since 2017, working a full workday five days a week, up to 10 hours a day. She immediately formed a positive connection with our then 10-month old son, and we felt comfortable with her from the day of her interview. She has many, many years of experience over several happy clients, in large part because she is gifted with wisdom and common sense. Over almost 3 years of taking care of our son, we've had no problems and have witnessed countless examples of excellent judgment. One of us works from home and has been happy to see Rupa providing age-appropriate, educational activities whenever he checks in. Rupa seems genuinely talented at this kind of work, capable of almost superhuman endurance while providing positive interactions with a toddler for many, many hours - easily more than either of us could manage by ourselves. She also has experience with a variety of restrictions from a long career in childcare, including clients with difficult personalities and strict religious demands. It is therefore no surprise that she has easily maintained steady work in this field for many years. While Rupa has done childcare work with children of a variety of ages (in addition to raising her own adult children), we would particularly recommend her as a nanny for younger children, as we credit our son's exceptional speaking ability to Rupa's ability to constantly engage verbally with very young children. Our son was able to communicate verbally at a very early age, and continues to verbally outpace any similarly-aged children we meet. This has let us teach, bargain, and reason with him more easily, making him easier to raise and a pleasure to be around. Rupa's recent client history provides strong evidence that she is most responsible for this wonderful outcome in the children she nannies. It is also probably no coincidence that her family dog is exceptionally capable of understanding speech and can even speak simple words in video-documented conversation. We happily recommend Rupa for childcare work and would be eager to discuss our experiences with anyone looking to hire her for her next job.

Coleen has been everything we had hoped for in having a nanny for our son -- she has become a member of our family. She has taken care of my son from six months when I returned to work until nearly his third birthday as he begins preschool. From the first day, I did not worry that he was in the best hands possible. Coleen has thirty years of experience taking care of boys and girls. She is professional and incredibly knowledgeable. Our son adores her -- he loves doing everything from running around the playground with her to having quiet time reading, singing nursery rhymes and learning his ABCs and counting. Coleen has made sure that he gets fresh air every day with outings -- there are very few instances where this hasn't been the case because of inclement weather. She has nurtured his first best friendships with two children whom he plays with almost every day. She has helped cultivate a command of his emotions, patience and communication. Coleen ensures our son is always clean, has the equipment/supplies we need on-hand, and made light cleaning like his laundry and dusting a fun activity for our son to learn. We look forward to continuing to have Coleen in our lives, and want to ensure that she lands in a new place with a wonderful family. If you are interested, please reach out to Coleen directly for a screening call. Following that, my husband and I would be more than happy to provide more background and answer any questions.

Lyn has been the most wonderful nanny to our two children (now 2.5 and 5 yrs old) over the last 5 years, caring for them both since they were newborns. Our children love her so much, it breaks our heart to say goodbye. It is only because they are both starting school full time that we are helping her look for a new family. Lyn is loving, kind, patient, professional, fun, flexible and social. As a mother herself (her children are older), and with 20+ yrs experience, she has an instinctive understanding of children's needs and wants. She always had our kids outside as much as possible, sets up playdates and loves heading out to new parks/adventures… but is always back for naps and stays on schedule! On countless occasions, she has been there for our children and our family with no fuss or questions and is NEVER late. She is flexible and has watched our kids while we traveled and on weekends if needed. Just ask and Lyn’s answer is always YES! A few other things… - Lyn is great at preparing home-cooked healthy meals that our children always eat! (From weening to fussy toddlers). - She has installed such a love of books and reading in both our children reading to/with them since they were babies. - Lyn is a great listener with a wonderful calming presence and always follows directions. - Lyn always made safety a top priority. Our children are very active and LOVE the park / adventures. She always kept us updated with pics and we never worried - we knew they were in great and capable hands. Lyn is an incredible nanny and a wonderful person. We’d really like for her to find the right family to join and would be happy to answer any questions directly to make sure it’s a good fit for you!

We were worried because our daughter had issues taking the bottle and would not sleep very much. Luckily, we found Stacie. Thanks to her background as a night nurse, she got our daughter to drink multiple bottles and nap throughout the day. Stacie is extremely patient, professional and punctual. She truly loves taking care of children and it shows. Also, Stacie will clean your apartment and do laundry. Unfortunately, we have to say good-bye to Stacie since my wife will be on summer break.

She is very compassionate and has experience working with children with emotional disabilities as with my youngest son. She is very safety conscious and speaking from past experiences was a \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"saving grace\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" during the 911 World Trade Center attacks in 2001 by helping me locate and pick up my children from school and keeping them safe and secure, while not worrying about herself and how she would get back home. She is very trusting and has children of her own whom I watched grow up and have turned into lovely young ladies. I feel Lalita would be a great asset to your family as a full time nanny. She listens and follows directions well and will inquire if there is something that needs to be explained more in depth. She is very safety conscious and reliable taking the children she cares for to the park, playdates, and scheduled activities. She is very familiar with all the parks and playgrounds along the upper Eastside as well as the museums in Manhattan. After having experience with Lalita for over 20 years, again I feel that she would be a wonderful asset to your child care needs!

For my children (twins) she has always provided a safe and happy environment for them, has reinforced and modeled good social behavior, and was able to discipline appropriately. They love her and will miss seeing her daily, but she will always be a part of our family. We want nothing more than to share such a positive experience with another deserving family.

In the past year I’ve gotten to know Urmila as she has truly become our trusted care giver. She began watching our newborn at two months of age. She has been a staple at our house ever since, working every weekday and weekends as requested. She is punctual and reliable and will let you know in advance if a conflict (unplanned) arises (e.g. the subway running late). Of Urmila’s strengths—and there are many—her greatest is her dedication towards our baby. She treats her as if she was her own. Our baby quickly developed extreme fussiness and reflux issues and Urmila was able to bottle feed her and adapt to her behavior. She can also entertain the little one throughout the day. She devotes her full attention her. At the same time she does a thorough job with washing the baby’s bottles, clothing, towels, and other light household work. When seeking a new nanny, one of the criteria we used was “how well can she follow our details and instructions (no matter how crazy they might be)?” Urmila quickly followed our instructions and never complained once. In essence, she will respect your wishes and adhere accordingly. While I wish Urmila could continue with us, we are moving out of state and cannot continue past July. I am confident that Urmila would be a great nanny for your little one. She conducts herself professionally, respects confidentiality, and is able to connect with the babies and little ones. She is irreplaceable! 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. Please do not hesitate to contact me by phone or email if you’d like any additional information; I’d be happy to share!

I’m sad to be writing this post and saying goodbye to our fabulous nanny, who will be looking for a new family to work with full-time in mid-August after my husband and I move to Boston based on his residency match. Digna has been with us for one year caring for our daughter from age 8 weeks (now 1 year old) and our son from 25 months (now 3 years old). She is warm, loving, calm and attentive, keeping them engaged, taking them outside to play for hours or to the library, doing arts and crafts on rainy days in our house, and attending innumerable classes with them throughout the neighborhood. Importantly, she was extremely responsible and receptive helping me reach my breastfeeding goals. Our children ADORE her and despite a very challenging transition for our son last year with a move from LA to NYC, a new sister, and a new nanny, he very quickly warmed up to her. She is primarily Spanish speaking, which has helped my son especially speak and understand Spanish very well. I am a limited Spanish speaker yet have had no real issues communicating with her. She does understand some English but will speak with the children she cares for in Spanish. She has also been tremendously helpful to my husband and me, and really makes our lives and sometimes difficult work schedules function. She is responsible, punctual, stays late without issue when our days are unexpectedly long, and makes sure meals are planned. The single time she did not come to work was a day we insisted she take off to rest after catching a cold from our kids. She offers to babysit some weekends or stay late so we can have some alone time. In her previous job, she cared for twins beginning in infancy for 7 years and only left after they moved out of the city and her commute became >2 hours. We spoke to them last year when we were looking and they enthusiastically referred her. She still has a close relationship with them, going to the kids’ parties and various recitals/performances. I know they would be happy to provide an additional reference. I am so sad to be saying goodbye. I have tried to bargain with my husband about staying in the city solely based on her relationship with us and our kids, and my complete peace of mind when leaving her with them. Our children and I adore her and any family would be lucky to have her. She has become part of our family and we want to make sure she will be with a family who appreciates her. We give her extremely high recommendations and would be happy to FaceTime with any family who is interested.

Nanny with 17 years of experience available now. Carmen has been with us for 11 months, providing alternating/simultaneous care of our now 4.5-year-old and 11 month old, but our needs have changed. She’s punctual, flexible with changing schedules, and hardworking. Our kids’ room has never been so tidy. On her own initiative, she reorganized/folded all of their clothing, as well as the books on multiple bookshelves. She also took care of the usual: kids’ laundry, light housekeeping, warmed up meals, drop-off/pick-ups for classes/school, and playdates. She is direct, receptive to direction/feedback, and understands your preferences as a family. For example, she had to change routines she kept with all of her previous families given our oldest’s love of reading, instead of spending hours sitting in a stroller! With my infant, she would play games, read, sing songs, and got her to drink out of a bottle. She is CPR certified, open to families with 1 or more children (infants and/or toddlers), open to part-time or full-time work (e.g. M-F 8-6pm), and is ready to start anytime.

My nanny, Sencia has been with our family for 10 years since my daughter was an infant and has been a wonderful addition to our family. She is reliable, trustworthy and highly responsible. She loves being outside, going to the library, the park, and on play dates. She is organized, attentive, loving, and calm and extremely flexible with my schedule. I know Sencia would be a wonderful addition to your family, helping to care for and love your little one in a secure, stimulating, and fun environment. Sencia loves children and my daughter loves and adores her. We are really sad to be letting her go after all these years, but as my daughter goes to middle school our time no longer demands full time help. We want nothing more than to find another amazing family for her. She is a true gem and your family would be so fortunate to have her in your lives.

Mari will bring so much love and warmth to your home and children’s lives, making you feel entirely at ease while at work or away from them.

We are helping our wonderful nanny Lituania ("Nana") find a new position after three years with us. Nana started caring for our son when he was two and is looking for a new job because he is getting ready to start school. She has been such a positive influence on his life. Nana is loving, dependable, nurturing and hardworking. She truly cares deeply for our son. She is very creative and always coming up with fun activities for them - exploring new parks in our neighborhood, meeting new friends and organizing playdates, and fun arts and crafts. Another amazing thing about Nana is that she cooks for our son. Since both my husband and I work and do not have much time to cook, this is incredibly helpful. Nana is also the most reliable and dependable person I have ever worked with. In three years, she has never taken a sick day and is always on time (in fact, early) and never has an issue staying late if we are delayed at work.

Our daughter's former amazing nanny, Adel, is looking for a full time position starting at the end of August. My family was lucky to work with Adel for two years from when my daughter was ten months until she started school at age 3. We feel so lucky to have found Adel to care for our child. She is incredibly warm and loving, fully engaged and full of energy, super smart and knowledgeable about child development and just an all around wonderful person. Adel is professional, educated, reliable, positive, and easy to work with. Adel filled our child’s day with lots of outdoor activities, found all of sort of enriching activities to do in the neighborhood (libraries, dance classes, play groups) and helped our daughter make friends. Adel was respectful of our parenting choices, but we also leaned on her and her many years of nanny experience to help give us guidance, especially when we were first time parents. We trusted Adel wholeheartedly and were never concerned about the safety of our daughter when Adel was in charge. She communicated with us throughout the day. We’ve had parents approach us at the park on the weekend and tell us how lucky we are to have Adel and how wonderful she is with our child when they see her during the week. Any family would be incredibly lucky to work with her.

Carol has been in our family for close to 13 years, first as the nanny for my sister in Manhattan and Long Island (twins and then a third) and then as my nanny in Brooklyn for my two girls.

She is honest, patient, loving, calm, energetic and fabulous with all kids. She still sits for my sister on the weekends and is a big part of my nieces life even though she has not been their nanny for years. Parents in the neighborhood have on numerous occasions commented to me (unsolicited) on how great she is with my girls and is never on her phone. She is also very organized, and keeps our place tidy and clean. She is very interactive with my girls, plays with them, reads to them, and does homework with them. We really love her and are only letting her go as we are moving out of state. Carol is seeking long-term, full-time work with a kind family.

Parent Reference

There are not enough words in the English language to describe the way my family feels about Bibi, but I will certainly try ;-) Five years ago a Mom on this site inadvertently gifted our family the Bibster and she has been with us ever since. Now, I am here and paying it forward. I must have interviewed 30 nannies and even from the time of our initial phone conversations I knew Bibi would be the one. Funny part is that we had several face to face interviews scheduled that she would later cancel last minute because her current employer needed her to stay late. Her loyalty was INSPIRING and it was because of this loyalty that I kept calling her to reschedule. The fact that she was willing to give up future job security for her current employer (who was relocating) was amazing to me and made me want to hire her even more. Bibi started when our son was born and has been a second mother to our now 2 children, ages 5 (boy) and 3 (girl). She is a career nanny and every employment role she has ever had has been long term. No one has ever wanted to give her up, ever. The reason her jobs have changed is only due to relocation or kids growing older and the family no longer needing a nanny. She is the kindest and most loving human being. In 5 years, she has NEVER called in sick and barely even takes a vacation day. She is always, always on time. She is always happy to stay as late as we need her, and stay over while we are travelling. I think she was 20 minutes late one time (stuck in a subway with no service) and I was a minute away from calling the SWAT team to head over to her house to ensure she was okay – it was THAT out of character for her. Bibi is honest, a team player AND couldn’t be more wonderful with our children. She does the laundry, always ensures our home is clean when we get home, makes the beds, packs for the kids for weekend or longer trips, cooks for the family, organizes playdates and activities, organizes and schedules additional household staff as required. She is never on her phone and I mean never. She doesn’t have Facebook or Instagram. She doesn’t sit there on the phone talking to friends from all over the world while watching our children. She is NEVER distracted from our children. Instead she leaves her phone in the Foyer and reads books to our kids, plays with them and engages them. Most importantly, she loves them unconditionally as if they were her own. My heart breaks thinking about not having Bibi in our lives every day. If you have a newborn or a young toddler, Bibi is a gift from the angels and I only hope YOU take care of her as much as she will you and those closest to you. Please feel free to reach out to me directly to arrange an interview or hear more about our Bibi. If you would like to contact Bibi directly you can do so as well.

Parent Reference

Our family is delighted to provide a reference for Karen Carew. She worked with our family for 9 years, helping us to raise our two daughters (now ages 9 and 6) from when they were born. From the day she started working with us, she was warm and caring with our girls who are now incredibly sad that Karen is moving on to help a new family. Both parents in our family work so Karen was responsible for our children's well?being essentially from breakfast time until dinner five days a week. We have always found Karen to be trustworthy and responsible, and she has a calm relaxed demeanor which helps when the rest of us are trying to navigate hectic schedules. When our children were newborns and toddlers, she was excellent about keeping them entertained and on schedule (naps, feeding/meals, etc) throughout the day. She learned our neighborhood quickly and established friendships with the nannies of our children's friends which was helpful for organizing group trips to the playground and play dates. As our children transitioned to school (part time and then full time) and their extracurricular activities increased (eg, ballet and gymnastics classes), she was very reliable about getting everyone where they needed to be (and in the right outfits!). On numerous occasions, we have gotten unsolicited feedback from teachers or other parents in the neighborhood about what a good job they thought she was doing with our girls. She is very good with children ?? empathetic and patient but firm when the situation requires it. Aside from looking after the children, she also helped to keep our apartment neat which generally included light housework (cleaning dishes, doing the girls' laundry, straightening up their rooms and making their beds, etc). We feel lucky to have had Karen in our lives for the past nine years and are confident that she will do a great job for the next family that she works for. Our girls are so sad to see her move on, which says so much about Karen's positive impact to our family. However, given that both of them are now full time in school, we feel its time for Karen's talents to be shared by another family!

Jasmin is an exceptional nanny and has worked with our family for two years. She started when our son was 10 weeks old and has loved him like her own son. For my son- She always makes sure that he is well-fed, well-dressed, well-moisturized (he has eczema), clean and happy. She plans her own play dates in the neighborhood, brings him to different classes in the neighborhood, and plays any activities we want in the house. She is never on her cell phone around him and pays 100% attention to him. We do not use cameras in the house because we know she takes care of him with the utmost kindness and compassion. She is the type of nanny who is always on time, never misses work, and is very flexible to stay late. If we wanted help on the weekends she would be available. We had difficulty with our son’s sleeping and she worked with us to get him on a schedule (she did not fight us or claim that she knew what is best as I have heard about). Now he is a beautiful sleeper. She helps around the house and is always open to learning new things. We taught her how to cook some of his favorite meals so she could help with that. When we come home the house is always clean and tidy. She does his laundry so he always has clean clothes. We have loved Jasmin but our son will be starting school soon so we only need part time care. She would prefer full time work. I cannot emphasize how much we loved her and how easy she was to work with. I promise she will love your child like her own. We tried to convince her to stay with us part time but she needed the full time work.

Maria is an incredibly caring and compassionate person. She loves children through and through and loves the children she cares for as if they are her own. Maria started with my family when my first daughter was 3 months old and was with us when our second daughter was born. She is looking for a new family to grow with. Preferably a family in Manhattan and ideally on their first baby. We love Maria and really want to help her find the perfect next family to join! She is seriously the most thoughtful and caring person I have ever met. Below I have listed some of her biggest strengths: - VERY dependable. never misses work - Punctual - actually always early. She waits in my lobby until we are ready for her to come up! - Cautious - almost to a fault. You will never worry about the safety of your children - Loving - very affectionate and sweet with the children. Never raises voice or is aggressive - Patient - She seriously never gets annoyed about anything - Thoughtful - she stops and picks up things at the grocery store that my kids love or things she knows we are out of - Genuine and very open to feedback Maria follows instructions to a T. If you want her to do something and you write it down she will do exactly as you have asked her. She is not a great cook, but can, and is VERY willing to, make simple things for the children. She typically reheated meals for me and made simple side dishes. Maria has been a nanny since her early 20s. She is late 50s now. She grew up in Columbia and has taught my kids Spanish. Her English is pretty good. We loose some things in translation, but for the most part it was a non-issue. She is an American citizen and has a valid passport and is willing to travel with the family. She is incredibly flexible with her schedule.

Millie (Carmen) is the most respectful, caring and loving human being.

I had interview about 25 people in person and it was so clear when she left the interview for my husband and I that she was going to be the one who will join us and become part of our family. Millie is honest, caring, respectful, organized, punctual and for us is the piece that makes our lives work. She has become part of our family and we work together as a team. She is able to communicate in Spanish and English as she is fluent in both. This has been such a gift for us since I am from Argentina and my husband is American. Both of my kids are already fluent in both languages. Milie is extremely active with my kids. She takes the boys to the park, museums, library, play dates, classes, school and even gets in the pool with them since they were 6 months! She is always engaging in conversations with them and reads to them a lot. Not only my children love and adore her also the whole community does. We are taking a year sabbatical and moving countries, so we need a new loving family for Millie! It is so hard to imagine our day to day lives without her in it, as I remember when 6 years ago I called her reference and she said: \"There is not a day that goes by that I do not miss her.\" I know this is the feeling I will have and already have by thinking about it. Millie will prefer to work with a baby and is not interested in a home with pets (some allergies). She is available in September for full time job. She has a lot of experience with children. I know that any family Millie will join, she will bring joy, ease, collaboration and will make the children feel very very loved.

Look no further for a nanny with all the great qualities you may need. Each morning when Leila would arrive, our daughter would be practically jumping out of my arms to see her. Leila kept her fully entertained through play dates and trips to the library, the parks and sometimes the museum. When indoors she would engage her in books, art, learning shapes and numbers. Leila is wonderful with children and I always came home to a clean and peaceful house. She is dependable, honest and always puts our daughter first, as if she was her own. Leila is able to be flexible with her hours, so when I needed her to come early or stay late, she was able to make it happen for our family. My husband and I never worried about the safety of our daughter and we trust Leila completely. She also has lots of knowledge with dealing with different situations from her previous experiences and also from being a Professional Nursing Assistant in a Hospital. Our daughter hit all the growth milestones and also is a very happy baby. We need to thank Leila for that. She had always executed her duties in a very professional manner. We treasure her and value her contribution to our family. She had an in depth understanding of the needs and abilities of our daughter and had a positive influence on her development. Since day one, Leila has kept us informed through text, photos, videos and verbal communication. This has helped ease any worries we may have had as new parents, we know that she is always safe, and well cared for. We never asked for many things but she does it no matter what, for example, she massages our baby and changes her whenever necessary. She is very concerned and practice safety and hygiene. She was a tremendous resource to me as a first-time mom and had great advice whenever asked. She has truly bonded with our daughter and you can tell they love each other. We will always think of her as family. We never questioned Leila’s reliability; she is always on time and always willing to accommodate us when needed. Leila has guided us with each milestone along the way to setup an amazing structure in her daily routine including a sleep schedule, eating schedule etc. It is quite unfortunate that we had to relocate and move out of the City. If you are looking for a very qualified, experienced, loving, trustworthy, creative and capable nanny to join your family, you definitely without any regrets would love to have Leila. We offer our highest recommendation without hesitation and would be happy to contribute further and discuss her outstanding abilities at any time. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any other information. You can reach out to us either by email: [email protected] or phone 703-283-1693 or Contact Leila at 347-605-4346.

My wonderful nanny of 5 years is looking to start with another family at the end of June with an available start date of July 1st, or anytime after (flexible), since my children (4 yrs old and 7 yrs old boys) will be in camp and then school full-time. Gloria is part of our family and when we left Manhattan for Westchester 3 years ago, she stayed with us and commutes daily from Brooklyn. She has called out sick only 2 times over the past 5 years and is always early or on time. She will never make up a story or leave us hanging. Even during snow storms, she arrives on time. Gloria is very loving toward our children and wonderful at meeting new friends for the kids, arranging play dates, taking kids to activities, meal prep, laundry for the kids and light housekeeping for the family. I wholeheartedly trust her judgment and find that the friends she has made are also trustworthy and loving. If I confide in her about an issue at home or with our children, she will never repeat anything or betray our trust. In short, she is not a gossip! She treats my children as if they are her own and when we are away on vacation, she always facetimes us to talk and see the boys. Gloria has worked for two other families with whom she is still in contact and those families will also provide glowing references.

We are moving out of state and very sad to part with our incredible nanny, Marilyn. We would love to find her a full-time position. Marilyn has been our nanny for almost four years, starting when our daughter was a baby. Before then, she was a nanny for my husband's two cousins for ten years. Marilyn has worked with a range of ages and is loving, responsible, and energetic. She constantly speaks to my daughter and reads to her. Thanks to her, my daughter was extremely verbal as a baby, making our lives easier! Marilyn is very friendly and always takes my daughter on lots of playdates, sometimes to the park, the library, or the museum. My daughter takes occupational and physical therapy services about a mile from our apartment, and she's very comfortable taking my daughter there on the bus. She is a wonderful cook and has prepared all my daughter's meals since she was a baby. She always makes healthy and delicious meals that my daughter loves. She is always punctual and flexible to stay late. She places the utmost importance on our children's safety and happiness and I'm so sad that I'm going to have to do this without her! She also keeps our apartment very tidy and does all our kids' laundry. She really makes our lives so much easier.

Looking for full-time position or summer position starting July 1st for our wonderful, adored nanny, Audrey. Audrey has been with us since 2012, when my sons were 5 mos old, 2 yrs old, and 4 yrs old. Now having seen her take care of children from newborn through 11 years old, I can honestly say she is fantastic with all ages. She has thoroughly engaged them at all ages. Audrey is incredibly trustworthy, loyal, responsible, and loving. My sons adore and respect Audrey and I trust her to take them wherever they need to be after school (often shlepping 5 or more boys on the subway or bus to get to their sports practices). She is always on time and working full-time, I completely rely on Audrey to deal with all three boys’ after-school logistics and she does so without ever getting overwhelmed or frazzled. I have repeatedly been told that Audrey handles with ease things that would stress out other caregivers. Audrey has excellent judgment and over the years, our children’s teachers have praised Audrey and her relationships with our sons. Also, Audrey has been flexible as our family’s needs have evolved and we’ve asked Audrey to help out more around the house. We truly feel that Audrey is part of our family and I wholeheartedly recommend her. You can reach her at 917-803-1370 and I am happy to share my experiences with you, feel free to text me at 347-677-3645 or email me at [email protected]
