Our truly outstanding nanny, Donna, is looking for a new family as we are no longer in need of childcare (our children grow up too fast!). After a decade working with our two children, Donna has shepherded our family through so much; and we all love her deeply! Donna began working with us when our son (William) was 4 weeks old. And it is not an understatement to say that she is the only reason that my husband and I could go back to work with any kind of peace or comfort. As a pediatrician and a teacher, we were anxious to find someone who was loving, kind, supportive of our children’s development, and reliable. Donna exceeded every possible expectation. Donna was the perfect blend of bringing expertise and confidence while also being willing to adapt to the unique needs and wishes of our family. She was incredible at each stage of our children’s growth and development – finding music classes for infants, encouraging early literacy and spatial learning for toddlers, and always supporting their social-emotional well-being with playdates and calm support of the big feelings of early childhood. Donna has a gift for knowing how to make children smile; and she is a model how to explore and support our children’s interests to build confidence and skill. Donna was never late, never missed a single day of work in ten years, and was infinitely flexible and patient with our crazy schedules. She is the ultimate professional and approaches her care of our children with love, compassion, organization, and respect. Donna was always engaged with our children as her first priority and the center of her attention (no phone watching here!). She is an incredible cook and although we only ever asked her to cook for our kids, we confess to regularly “sharing” her amazing chicken curry and daal with our kids over dinner. We have received frequent compliments about Donna’s work from other families (and even strangers in the park who recognize our children). She has become a true friend to us, our parents (kids’ grandparents), and our children.

I would love to recommend Dominique to anyone looking for a nanny. She is an absolute superstar - a loving, dedicated, professional, reliable nanny who I and my son both completely adore. She has been helping me out at weekends with my 2 year old son and I would love to help her out to find the right family for her to join full-time for the long-term - unfortunately I am not in the position to give her that role but I would if I could without any hesitation! From the moment she enters my apartment the place is lit up with joy and kindness. She is a gentle and caring soul who cares for my 2 year old son so dearly as if he were her own. She always arrives (promptly) with an activity to base the day around and engages with him in very creative ways with lots of laughter and fun. She is responsible, very proactive and communicative, clean and respectful. She has been great about cooking him nutritious and creative food, support with potty training and all around development (particularly has immense patience dealing with his toddler tantrums in the most amazing way!). She is also a certified Home Health Aid, a Certified Newborn Care Specialist and has experience looking after multiple children. Any family would be really lucky to have Dominique in their lives, I know that I feel so blessed to have her in mine!

Our Amazing Nanny Debbie is looking for a new famil. She began working for us when my eldest son, Max, was 3-months old. As our family grew, with Beau 2 years later and then Beckett 2 years after that, Debbie became an invaluable member of our family. She is reliable, hardworking, and loving. Debbie was with us for 14 years and to this day our boys still love her so much! Debbie would like to find a new position with a family who has a newborn or a young child. I remember being a new mom and being worried about finding someone reliable to look after Max. From the beginning, Debbie showed her skill and expertise in caring for a baby and subsequently for my other sons when they were newborns. She takes her position very seriously and I always appreciated how she kept the boys on the schedule I had outlined for her in terms of feeding times, nap times, etc. In all the years Debbie worked for us she never once didn't show up and never called out sick. Debbie is 100% trustworthy and uses excellent judgement. She taught our boys to be polite, have good manners, and ....... to eat all their vegetables! You can call Debbie directly at (718) 926-9326 and you can call me for a reference at (917) 502-0636 and I can give you more details.

I have privileged to employ Sumranie Denobrega as our nanny for 14 years. Sumranie has been a reliable, fun, loving, and hard working full-time nanny for my daughter since she was a baby. Sumranie has literally seen my 14-year-old daughter grow up and she has become a member of our family.

Sumranie has always brought a professional, thoughtful, organized, and expert approach to the care of my daughter and the end result is that my daughter is happily and consistently setting goals, (both personal and developmental), and reaching them. When friends and family visit, Sumranie is always welcoming and friendly and my parents consider Sumranie a great friend. She has always been happy to pitch-in and help us with laundry, grocery shopping, and keeping the children's areas tidy and clean. Sumranie is a gifted nanny and person. She is loving, kind, warm, and energetic. She has a natural talent to make the children smile. She is always genuinely interested in my daughter’s health and informed me if she thinks something was not ok that. She is also very reliable and motivated and is able to work in the intimate family environment t with integrity and professionalism. We consistently receive compliments on how wonderful Sumranie is and I believe she is the best nanny any family could have. We treasure Sumranie and deeply value her contribution to our family.

Sumranie’s warmth attentive care, and inviting personality will be sure to endear her to you and your clients.

Kathy is looking for either a Monday or Friday nanny job to compliment her other nanny job that is Tues - Thurs. Kathy takes care of our 2.5 year old son and our 9 month old son on Fridays. She's been watching the eldest since he was 18 months old and then seamlessly took care of the two of the boys when the youngest was 10 weeks old. Kathy is the most gentle, calmest, and patient person I've ever met in my life. The boys adore her and she truly cares for them. She had absolutely no problem going from 1 to 2 and she even said, in the past, she nannied for 3 kids! I feel so secure with Kathy watching the boys - she takes them to the library or to the park or playground. Sometimes she'll stay in and read with them. Everything is just SO CALM with Kathy. She is always on time and has only had to take a day or two off in the last year for sickness. I cannot recommend Kathy enough - she is an angel on earth!!!!

Our former nanny Beverly is available starting asap. She seamlessly joined our family when our daughter was 9 months old and the change in our lives was instantaneously better. She has loved and nurtured our daughter doing everything with her from art, imaginary play, educational play, and tactile experiences, to getting out every day rain or shine and engaging in the world, setting up play dates, taking her to school and classes and the library. She does our daughter’s laundry and cooks special meals for her, cleans up and leaves the house looking great. She’s warm, kind, and professional above all with 15 years of experience. I don’t think she’s been late a day in the 2 years she’s worked for us.

First Class Nanny Available Amazing with babies and toddlers We are re-locating and looking for a new family for our incredible nanny Mel. We love her dearly and our daughter Sophie cherishes every moment with her. Our hope is to find her a family that will welcome her as part of their family. Mel has taken care of our 5-year-old daughter for past 5 years, and we are saddened to see her go. She originally came highly recommended to us by a close friend whose son she had been taken care of and was off and was now off to school. Mel is warm, sweet, reliable, and couldn't be more loving with our daughter. Also, she has a background in First Aid & is ADE certified from the American Red Cross. With that in mind, we also felt assured that are child was in great hands. We couldn't have asked for a better, comfortable first-time baby/nanny experience. She's always gone above and beyond our expectation in caring for our child-not to mention, we have always come back to an immaculate house. Her first priority was caring for our child, and we have complete trust in her with our daughter. References upon request. She is available. Please feel free to contact me. Berenice: 404-852-8349

Vicky Blai is a superb caregiver and true professional. She is a career nanny with decades of experience in Manhattan and Brooklyn and a native French speaker. Vicky is nurturing and has an unparalleled patience and optimism that proved invaluable during key milestones, such as transitioning to bottles/solids, my own transition back to the office, potty training (my daughter was day-time potty trained by 2 years), inevitable challenging periods (my daughter has struggled with constipation and has often required suppositories, gentle encouragement on the potty, etc.), and major live events (Vicky responded to news we were relocating with genuine enthusiasm and aplomb). She is devoted to my daughter and to her profession – she has never missed a day, even amid subway closures, travel mishaps, illnesses, etc. In fact, we found out later that when she first interviewed with us, she arrived more than an hour early to wait around the corner in frigid November weather. Vicky is such an experienced nanny that she knows exactly what types of activities are conducive to a child’s age and abilities. She was incredibly tapped into our Carroll Gardens community, despite her previous roles in different neighborhoods and boroughs, and was constantly alerting me to new classes and activities for little ones – like gymnastics, music classes, and reading circles. She developed a lovely community of friends for my daughter and proactively arranged play dates. Vicky has fostered my daughter’s independence and curiosity, to the point where my daughter marched into her first day of preschool without so much a wave or acknowledgement to us (thoroughly wounding my husband’s ego in the process). Vicky is also bilingual and speaks to my daughter primarily in French, which has been an excellent opportunity to expose my daughter to another language (she has already developed the most adorable French accent as a result!). Most importantly, Vicky loves my daughter as if she were her own. Vicky is an integral part of our family – a genuine partner to my husband and me – and we are heartbroken to part ways. However, we have moved further into Brooklyn and require full-time/extended care while Vicky is now seeking 4 days/week in Manhattan. Please let me know if I can answer any questions as I would love to help Vicky find a loving family to work with.

Eartha is an extremely warm, nurturing, and kind soul. She is a true natural with newborns, a “baby whisperer.” With over 25 years of experience and a mother of 4 (all grown now) she is able to provide care on another level— she brings a unique intelligence to her caregiving. As a first time parent I needed someone who could guide me and make suggestions based not only on best baby practices but also a deep understanding of my child’s individual needs. I had a very difficult delivery followed by a weeklong stay in the hospital and I honestly don’t know how I would’ve managed without Eartha. She stayed with me for 6+ weeks postpartum and cared not only for my child but looked out for the well being of me and my family. My baby had colic and acid reflux and she was able make the diagnosis before we even saw the doctor. After the diagnosis was confirmed by our pediatrician, she tracked and dosed the prescribed medications and made necessary feeding adjustments to accommodate the reflux and gas. With Eartha’s direct care and supervision, my child continued to gained weight and is now thriving! Eartha took my baby on walks in the stroller, to doctor appointments, made key suggestions for best products/toiletries to use for baby, tidied the nursery and organized the baby gifts and clothing, lbathed/dressed baby, did baby’s laundry, washed bottles and dishes, other light housework, and more. I loved the way Eartha talked to my baby and sang to her constantly. As soon as baby was opening eyes for extended periods of time she made sure black and white pictures were around to stimulate her. Eartha is forever part of our family and anyone who works with her is more than lucky to have this gem care for their child. She is the best of the best.

WONDERFUL full-time nanny available this summer. Odette has been with our family for 7rys and we sadly do not need full-time coverage with both of our children in full-time school. We are committed to finding a special family for her to grow with. Odette is everything that parents want in a partner-in-care. She is a career nanny and conducts herself in a professional way. She is loving, consistent, reliable, and dedicated to the growth and development of the children she cares for. Odette focuses on the emotional, educational, physical, and social growth of our children. When she is not reading to them, or helping them practicing their literacy and writing skills, she is arranging playdates and social outings with other caregivers. Odette single handily threw our 2yr old a birthday party when I had a newborn at the time. Safety and care is of the utmost importance to Odette; we joke that we trust her to take our children to the moon. She is a self-starter and forward thinker helping us to think and plan for future milestones of our children. We can count on one hand that she has called out sick in 7yrs and she is the reliable partner-in-care that working parents need and depend on. In addition to childcare, Odette helps to run our house with housekeeping responsibilities for our kids and she is very skilled in the kitchen making nourishing meals that our children love. As her own children are grown, she has flexibility which we value and has traveled with our family. She is looking to find a family in Manhattan or Brooklyn with a baby and to grow with that family. Ideal start date is July 1st, but may have some flexibility for the right family. Please reach out directly to Odette (646.373.5838) and of course feel free to message me with any questions or if more information would be helpful.

Wyll took care of our first born daughter, Alex, from ~5 months to almost 2 years (when Alex started school). As first time parents that do not have family in NYC, Wyll became a critical member of our family unit, a source of knowledge and expertise, and someone we relied on, trusted, and loved. Wyll is not just a nanny - she is an educator. She worked with Alex on all the major developmental milestones and helped her advance very quickly for her age. She built a happy and stable routine for Alex, identifying classes for her to go to, creating friendships with other nannies in the area to form a friend group for Alex (which she would see daily), and having a very organized and clear schedule for her day. Wyll also invested in creating a healthy nutrition for Alex, and took her from first trying solids to a full diet with daily cooking of fresh food. All of this helped Alex sleep well, eat well, progress rapidly, and be constantly smiling and cheerful through these highly important months in her life. Wyll is highly intelligent and experienced, and any family who gets to work with her will feel grateful that their child is nurtured by such an excellent professional. Wyll is looking for a full time position (Mon-Fri, 8am-5pm) with a newborn

Denise joined our family 3 years ago when our son was 13 months old, and from the beginning, it was evident that she possessed a rare combination of skills and qualities that make an exceptional caregiver. Her strong work ethic, adaptability, and incredible childcare instincts allowed her to seamlessly integrate into our family dynamics, even in the midst of our dual work-from-home situation at the time. Her diligence and genuine love for our son have left an indelible mark on our lives. Denise's commitment to our son's well-being and development has been truly outstanding. She not only provides the necessary care but goes above and beyond to engage in activities that stimulate our son's physical, emotional, and intellectual growth, as she paid particular attention to him as an individual and what his specific likes and dislikes are. From organizing playdates to talking with him constantly to reading, telling stories, and playing, Denise has created a nurturing environment that has contributed significantly to our son's early years. She always provided us with a sense of comfort and trust during times of illness. Denise's ability to handle challenging situations with poise and expertise demonstrates her exceptional caregiving skills. Beyond her responsibilities as a caregiver, Denise became a true partner in parenting. She has collaborated with us through various stages of our son's life (from potty training to the transition to school and a big bed and a move), offering guidance and support. Her influence played a crucial role in shaping our son into a thoughtful and empathetic individual. Denise's sense of responsibility was evident not only in her childcare duties but also in her willingness to take on additional tasks such as keeping the kitchen clean, cooking nutritious meals for our son, and even assisting with washing our sheets or folding our laundry if she noticed we were behind or we were sick. Her commitment to maintaining a phone-free and focused environment during activities with our son highlighted her dedication to providing quality care. Denise is a consummate nanny with a genuine passion for childcare. Her exceptional qualities, combined with her nurturing nature, make her an outstanding candidate for any family seeking a caring and dedicated nanny. Her next family is so lucky! Please reach out to Denise first. We are more than happy to provide a phone call reference once you have spoken. She also has equally glowing references from her former employers, whom we spoke with before hiring her.

Adam has been our loving and caring nanny full time for four years. She has contributed tremendously to our sons growth and it sadness us to see her leave as I have become a stay at home mom. I highly recommend her to any family in need of child care. She is a reliable, highly experienced, energetic, patient, and nurturing nanny. Most importantly Adam has treated our son like her own and has become such an integral part of our family. One of the best things is our son now knows French because of Adam being fluent her self. It was such a great perk to have her help our son become bilingual, a skill I wish I had my self. From early on Adam has also helped academically by making learning fun for our son and helping with homework. It has even helped us get our boy in one of the best private schools in NYC. Adam is a god sent and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough. I can only hope you welcome her into your home with open arms as we did ours. You will not be disappointed, she is every parents dream.

Samantha (Sam) was our son Mo's full-time nanny (and his favorite person in the world) from his birth to the time that he began school, and she's been a trusted resource and friend throughout. The fact is, she played a huge part in making Mo the fun-loving, thoughtful, and outgoing kid that he is today, two weeks from his sixth birthday. It's no small task keeping a rambunctious little boy safe on the streets of Manhattan, but we always knew Mo was in good hands when he was with Sam. She's punctual and kind and has almost always been able to accommodate unexpected changes to our schedules. It's not possible to recommend her more highly!

March 10, 2024 Carolina Nino de Guzman was our family’s full-time caregiver from January 2 through the early part of February 2024. She was an invaluable support during a time of transition for our family as we prepared to move abroad (due to this unanticipated move, we were not able to welcome our scheduled au pair, as planned). Carolina stepped in and provided warm and loving care for our 10-month-old daughter, our 3-year-old son, and our 7-year-old daughter. She simultaneously provided efficient and thorough household management, doing dishes, laundry, and general tidying up. Our baby daughter took to Carolina and her warm and friendly manner right away (during a period, in fact, in which our daughter was often very wary of new people). Carolina talked and engaged with our daughter throughout the day, assisted with her transition to solid foods, and supported her consistent nap schedule. In the afternoon, Carolina and our baby went on a walk to pick up our older daughter and son from school. Carolina prepared healthy snacks and took all three children to the park, the library, or to other outings, navigating the city (Midtown Manhattan) with ease. Carolina’s positive attitude, experience, energy, and clear love of children were all very much appreciated by our family during this time. She is a self-starter who does not wait to be told what to do, but when she sees a need, she fills it. She is always communicative and kept us well informed of the children’s days, any developments, and other key information. I highly recommend Carolina. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me directly. Sincerely, Katie Dayton

Kathleen has been with us for 15 years, since our twin boys were 10 days old. Kathleen is a warm, caring, and patient person who has a positive outlook on life. She is extremely reliable. When our twins were born my husband and I both worked full-time, and our goal was to find a loving and capable person to care for our newborns during the day, who had a flexible schedule so could stay late when needed, and simply, whom we liked. We wanted a caregiver who was experienced yet flexible enough to “do it our way”. We struck gold with Kathleen. She was wonderful with our children, and they still adore her. Kathleen was terrific about getting the boys out and about – to the playgrounds, to the park, to weekly trips to the Natural History Museum as well as to more structured classes like music, sports, and eventually preschool. Her focus was on the kids – not her cell phone or the TV, and our boys were happy and thrived under her care. It was a comfort to my husband and me to know that our children were spending their days with someone who was keeping them safe and active, and bringing them joy. I’m a natural worrier and I feel very fortunate to have found a caregiver that I trust completely - I never worried about the boys while working, which allowed me to focus and excel. We moved from Manhattan to Westchester at the start of elementary school, and Kathleen made the transition seamlessly (even with a longer commute). She befriended the other caregivers, moms, and dads, so the boys had plenty of after-school playdates. She made sure the boys did their homework, read books, and took baths. As the boys grew up and became more independent, we shifted Kathleen’s responsibilities to include more cooking, housework, dog care and housesitting, which worked out very well. Now that our boys are in high school and I have stopped working, we’re helping her find another position with a loving family. I wish I had kept track of the number of people I’ve run into who have stopped me to tell me how wonderful Kathleen is. She’s a special person for sure, and I highly recommend her as a trusted, caring, reliable caregiver.

Tashi comes with 25+ years of experience and is a very special person and reliable caretaker. She cared for our son with such dignity, grace, and love. We always felt at ease when he was in her care. We attribute his good manners and ability to very clearly communicate to her. She knew how to lead by example which I realized is one of the most important and effective ways to raise a child. Without much supervision, she knew exactly what to do while engaging with our son. She’s aware of all the stages of child development and easily guides him through his different nap schedules, baby-led weaning, walking, potty training, etc. She was calm and collected every step of the way. Tashi was incredible at speaking to him constantly, making sure he was safe at all times, and socializing him with a great group of other nanny friends and children. The amount of unwavering attention she devoted to him is unparalleled by anyone else I’ve experienced. She had endless patience and energy even at the end of long days. I am so grateful we had her during those early stages of development when children need it the most. We held on to her as much as we could but now that my son is past 2.5 years and ready for school full-time, we are sad we have to let her go. Tashi is currently looking for a new family with one young baby to raise. Feel free to contact her directly or me for references. Thank you, Grace

Pema has been an incredible nanny to our daughter for over five years, starting when she was just three months old. It's rare to find someone as dedicated, loving, and genuine as Pema, and we can't recommend her enough. Pema has a real knack for connecting with children and has always made sure our daughter felt cared for and happy. She's not just a nanny; she's been a part of our family. Watching her interact with our daughter has been a joy, and it’s clear she truly loves what she does. Our daughter is very fond of Pema and is going to dearly miss her. Beyond her amazing caregiving skills, Pema is also a good cook. She’s treated us to some delicious Indian meals that were always a hit with our family. She’s been open to helping out with other things around the house too, which has been a huge help. One of the things we’ve appreciated most about Pema is her dedication towards her work and genuine care for our daughter. She’s always been upfront and honest with us, making sure we’re on the same page about our daughter’s care and development. It’s been great having someone we can trust and rely on so much. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your kids like her own and bring a lot of joy and love into your home, Pema is the person for the job.

She is knowledgeable about newborns and has been a great help to us as first-time parents. Mircia is diligent, kind, caring, honest, and responsible. She is a certified Infant Care Specialist, as well as certified in Infant First Aid and CPR. Mircia takes Lea on playdates, to the library, petting farms, playgrounds, and parks. On rainy days, they enjoy finger painting, art projects, and storytime. She treats our daughter as if she were her own and it shows in how much she loves and cares for her. I cannot say enough good things about Mircia, and I encourage you to contact me if you have any questions or would like to contact her directly.

Our wonderful nanny Yamileth is looking for a new family. She has been with us for almost two years (since April 2022), during which time she took care of our eldest daughter from the age of 3 months - 18 months and then our second daughter 3 months - 9 months (while our eldest was in a full-day program). Yamileth is incredibly caring with my daughters and I trust her completely with them. She has been exceptional at engaging them with lots of conversation, singing, activities and truly goes above and beyond in showering them with affection. She is very active and likes to take them out multiple times a day to explore or meet with other children. I've had other parents remark how sweet, patient and engaging she is with my children and that she is rarely on her phone. She is very responsive to feedback and desired schedules, and will keep note of nap/feed times. Throughout the day, my husband and I receive video and photo updates, so we are always aware of where they are. Yamileth also cooks our baby's food from scratch, does light house-cleaning (our living area is always spotless), organizes the kids' toys & clothes, and does all our laundry. She speaks Spanish, which has worked well for our family as we are raising our children bilingual. She is also able to manage with some limited English/translation tools, so my parents have been able to communicate easily with her when my husband and I have been traveling. She has 5 years of childcare experience, is always timely and is willing to stay late or occasionally help in the weekends. We are sad to see her go but have decided that having both children in full-day programs (daycare) works the best for our family. We hope Yamileth finds a lovely new family! Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

We unequivocally recommend Isidora for anyone looking for the best nanny out there. We have been so lucky to have had Isidora (or Isi as our toddler says) as a full-time nanny for our daughter for over a year. She is truly a “baby-whisperer” and as first time parents during a pandemic, she has been such a blessing to our family. In addition to being responsible, always on time and super reliable, she’s also an amazingly loving and patient care taker. She helped us organize a schedule for our baby and took her on daily outings to the park, playground, library, and outdoor play dates. They read books, sing songs, and play together. Her positive energy and warm personality are a pleasure to be around and have helped our girl to flourish. I wish we could keep her on but we are starting preschool. Isidora is fully vaccinated and Covid-conscientious, extremely reliable and all-around wonderful. Any family would be lucky to hire her. We highly recommend her with no reservations. Please reach out to her directly at 347-813-9745 and feel free to reach out to me as well at 954-471-8773. Thanks, Jessica

Kavita worked until my daughter started school and then started with another family last summer. They are moving across the country and she will be looking for a new family starting in April so I'm posting here on her behalf. Ideally, Kavita would like a full time job (40 hrs a week) but is open to part time if enough hours are offered at a desirable payrate. She's flexible with the schedule and is willing to work 4 full weekdays or an alternative schedule like weekends and two or three weekdays. She knows Midtown East/Sutton Place and the UES very well. She has worked overtime for us on occasion, staying late or occasional weekend date nights. Kavita has over 20+ years of experience, including with multiple children, and has worked as a baby nurse. She is communicative, trustworthy and dependable. She has excellent English and stays in touch with me throughout the day, sending photos, texting and calling when needed. Our daughter was a COVID baby and Kavita helped socialize her, making playdates at the playground or in our building playroom on rainy days. Our daughter was a little shy around other children at first and Kavita has been wonderful in helping her feel comfortable around other children her age. I've seen a big change in how my daughter now feels comfortable approaching other children when I've taken her to the playground on weekends. Kavita and my daughter spent most of the day at the playground or on pre-arranged playdates. Kavita has always made sure the other child plays well with my daughter (not hitting or playing too rough) and has discussed the child and nanny with me first before arranging the playdates (to make sure I'm comfortable). Kavita has also offered to take her to reading groups, music classes and has looked for activities in our neighborhood to keep our daughter engaged. Kavita reads to her and has taught her to count. My daughter is also now an excellent eater thanks to Kavita (she wasn't the best eater when she started with us). Kavita has called me immediately when she thought something was wrong or if our daughter had an accident. She is very cautious - always wearing a mask during Covid and wiping the swings at the playground - and only lets her do age appropriate activities (doesn't allow her on the big kid slides or play gyms). Kavita always does our daughter's laundry and puts it away, her dishes and straightens up after her. She often leaves our place tidier than she found it. We have a small dog in the apartment and she is good around the dog. She also works well around our housecleaner and our family when they have come to town. Kavita is easy to be around and takes well to feedback. When I have asked her to do something differently, she has made adjustments. As an anxious first time mom, Kavita came into our lives and helped give me faith that there are trustworthy nannies out there that will provide excellent care for our child. Please do not email her as she does not have email address so I listed mine. Please call or text her.

Amazing Nanny Available! We were very fortunate to have Betty as our nanny for our son! Betty is an experienced, reliable, trustworthy, and knowledgeable nanny who is extremely adept with young children and babies. She knows what developmental stage is coming next and can preemptively suggest things such as: introducing solid food, when to use a sippy cup, dropping a nap, and so on. We found Betty to be extremely helpful as first-time parents who didn't know a thing! With that said, she also would let us take the lead on making decisions and defer to whatever we thought was best for our son. The transition back to work for me was hard and I’m not sure how I would have done it without Betty. It’s so difficult to trust someone with your baby! Betty kept me in the loop on how things were going and would send pictures and updates often and they bonded pretty quickly. My son was clearly very excited to see her each morning. Betty has a vast network of nanny friends in the city so she knows all the good hangout spots and activities, like library book readings or music classes. She likes to be on the move and took my son outside for fresh air and adventures instead of sitting in front of the TV all day. In addition to all this, Betty helped around our apartment and assumed the role of house manager without being asked. If she had any down time, she was looking for ways to help. Betty worked for our family starting when our son was 4 months old. Due to the circumstances created by the COVID pandemic, we left New York City. If I could have taken her with us, I would have! If you're looking for someone who will genuinely care for your children and be a supportive presence in your home, she is the one. Please feel free to reach out to me for more details or to connect with her directly.

Radekha took pride in helping her achieve milestones in development. She would sing and talk to our daughter all day which contributed to her early language skills. Our daughter totally adores Radekha! Not only does Radekha take her job very seriously as a nanny, she is willing to help out around the home to make the household run smoothly for working parents. She would also do some light housekeeping to help maintain organization. Radekha absolutely loves being a nanny and would like to begin a relationship with a newborn!

Hi there my name is Rosanna and I am here to tell you about my truly wonderful and amazing nanny, Ms. Sacha! For 7 blessed years, I have had the honor and privilege of having Sacha be the most loving, nurturing and caring nanny to my two daughters Victoria and Veronica who are 7 and 4 years old respectively. She has been there all their lives and has not only cared for them in every way but guided them through their daily routines and learning journeys. She has engaged my children through fun activities such as play dates, fun learning games, and made everything so much more easier for my children to understand and enjoy learning. I am so truly grateful for the time I had Sacha in my family as my nanny and I know for a fact I could have not found a better nanny than her to care for my children! Sacha is also very educated and has her BLS and CPR certifications through the American Heart Association. I hope that Sacha will bless your lives the way she has blessed me and my family. My children and I are totally in love with her and miss her very dearly, but we know in our hearts she will find the right family to love and nurture. Thank you and I hope you will be that lucky family to have Sacha as your nanny!

We recently parted ways with our incredible nanny Sonam as both our daughters are now in school full time. “Nam Nam” as our girls affectionately call her, was with our family for almost 7 years, since our eldest was 3 months old. Our daughters are now 3 and 6. She moved with us from Brooklyn to Westchester a couple years ago and was live-in during the weekday but now is looking to stay in NYC. Sonam created a caring and calm environment for our family, which was evident in her day-to-day approach with our girls. Her approach was patient, kind, and positive. She made sure the girls were loved,  safe, and growing up to be kind human beings. I have heard from many friends and neighbors over the years remark on her kindness - she truly lives this every day. Sonam is incredibly reliable and rarely showed up late or called out sick. She created a consistent schedule for us, and handled morning prep, meal prep, school bus drop-off/pick-up, naps, laundry, playdates/activities, and bathtime. She also took on light housekeeping - cooking for the family, laundry, and cleaning. Sonam was also always engaged and active with our daughters. They were always busy on playdates, at the playground, and on picnics. She will always be a part of our family so it was a very bittersweet decision to part ways with her as our nanny. The next family she finds will be incredibly lucky to have her.

I frequently received compliments from other parents about how great Yvonne was with our daughter and I always felt completely secure with leaving our daughter in Yvonne’s care. We had such a great experience with her! Yvonne also has experience with newborns, including working as a baby nurse. Happy to do reference calls.

Paulette is an amazing nanny! She has taken care of our two girls, ages 12 and 9, since they were 3 and newborn, and has had a wonderful, close relationship with them at every age. She has seamlessly adjusted her interactions with them as they have gotten older, so that she was not just a nanny but also a companion that they felt they could relate to at every step. When our kids were little, Paulette was great at getting on the floor to play with them. As they got older and faced social challenges at school, she became a valuable thought partner for us about how to guide them through those challenges. She is incredibly responsible, reliable, and organized – she knows our kids’ school and after-school schedules better than we do. She keeps the apartment clean without even being asked to do it. She has brought so much to our family and to our kids’ lives – she really has taken care of all of us for almost a decade. Now that the kids are older and no longer need a full-time nanny, we want to do everything we can to pay Paulette back by finding a great new family for her to be a part of.

We'll be parting ways with our wonderful nanny Aracely this summer when we move out of NYC area. It's incredibly hard for us to say goodbye as Aracely loves and treats our kids like her own, and takes care of our whole family too - helping with laundry, errands, groceries and more. She is extremely caring, committed, and flexible in her approach to working with a family. Our kids equally adore her. Aracely has been with our family nearly 6 years - for our son from birth, and our daughter too (she is now age 2). The family before us, she was with for 8 years. She speaks both English and Spanish. Our son attends a Spanish immersion school and she has supported him in Spanish development so that in total he is confidently bilingual despite his non-speaking parents. That said, she will happily speak English only upon request. Hours: She is looking ideally for a committed full-time position, not occasional babysitting. She has been very flexible on how to complete a 40 hour week as our needs have evolved over the years. You can discuss weekday/weekend schedules with her outside of typical 9-5 as needed. If you only need some part-time help this summer (~20+ hours), still reach out - could be a hold over to a full-time role this fall; or a ramp-up schedule to full-time.

Sattie has been our nanny for several years and we absolutely adore her. She was fantastic with our now 2 year old son when we lived in Manhattan. She took him to the park, to his classes and to his speech appointments. She has a vast network of nannies and stay-at-home moms and always arranges tons of playdates for our son. She read him stories, painted and colored with him, and plays games. She was amazing at feeding him (he are better with her than with us) and she has no trouble getting him down for a nap every day. Sattie was never late and always stayed later if needed. Our needs changed and we have now moved to New Jersey. It was very difficult for us to say goodbye to Sattie and our son will miss her terribly. We hope she finds an amazing new family where she can stay and grow with. They will be extremely lucky to have her.

Althia is an incredibly reliable and caring nanny who was a tremendous part of our caregiving team for our children from birth until age 4 when we relocated due to changes in jobs. She's previously worked with families with older children as well. She handled the needs of a toddler and newborn simultaneously, kept the house in order, took the kids to school/activities, cooked their meals, did their laundry and kept them both engaged and having fun. She took pride in helping them achieve milestones in learning and development. Our children miss her and still call her regularly to say hi. She is punctual and reliable and very highly recommended.

I am writing to highly recommend Margarita Rincon for any future nanny or childcare-related positions. She provided exceptional care for our daughter from the age of 10 months to 16 months while in our employment. Margarita is a nurturing caregiver who creates an engaging environment for children. From the very beginning, our child naturally bonded with her through inventive games and authentic experiences. She prioritized our daughter's safety and upheld all household rules. Her attentiveness extended beyond the basics, as she planned activities, prepared meals, set development targets, and provided daily reports. Margarita is also a great communicator, considerate, and professional. She went above and beyond, leaving us artwork from the day and bringing our daughter fruit she likes. I am confident that Margarita would be an asset to any household seeking a responsible nanny. As a first-time parent, the peace of mind she will bring is priceless. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Warm Regards, Naomi Dele-Tunji

We relocated overseas a few weeks ago. Our fantastic babysitter Janneth will be available starting immediately. Janneth has been looking after our very active 8yo daughter. She is very kind, patient and reliable. In addition to helping out with school pick-ups and after school classes, Janneth helps with homework, preparing dinner, doing laundry and cleaning up the child's bedroom. She is also able to help with other chores, such as, laundry, grocery shopping, cooking and general housework. We are very sad to leave Janneth and are sure she will be the right fit to any family. I am not in the US anymore, better if text or email for reference.

Pam has over 20 years of experience as a caregiver. She is kind, seamlessly handles big emotions, and loves hands-on activities. She always arrives early, stays late, and tolerates our family's chaotic scheduling shifts like a champ. Pam was with us for my daughter's first year. She got her on a consistent schedule, bottle trained, taught her to feed herself, and created an easy transition to solids. She is engaged, funny, exuberant and reassuring voice of reason. One of her strengths that I greatly appreciate is her communication skills - she isn't afraid or shy to ask for clarity, and genuinely wants to do right for the entire family. She is compassionate, trustworthy, and an excellent care-giver. As a new mother, I was grateful to have Pam's maturity, calm demeanor and general good nature as I transitioned back to work and into motherhood.

We sadly no longer need our incredible nanny, Maureen or "Momo", who has worked with us for 3 years. We are moving to the DC suburbs in April and would take her with us if we could. Any family that has an opportunity to work with her is so lucky - I really mean that!! We first hired Maureen when our oldest was 5 months old. She now takes care of our 3.5-year-old and 1.5-year-old full-time. Maureen has been a nanny in Brooklyn for over 12 years. She has taken great care of our two children and developed deep, loving bonds with both of them. She is very active and great with both newborns and toddlers. When our children were infants, she took them on long walks to get fresh air, met in parks with babies of similar ages, and was always in the know about what was happening in the neighborhood (live music, meet-ups). When at home, she read them many books and played on the floor. Now that they are both toddlers, she is constantly running after them at the playgrounds, taking them to school / classes / playdates, and reading endless books. Not only does she keep up with our very active children, she is also fully attentive and is never on her phone or pushing screen time. The thing I want to highlight is that Maureen goes above and beyond. She always arrives early and over 3 years has never been late. When my husband is traveling, she comes in even earlier and stays later to help out. She makes herself available for date nights. She is incredibly respectful and cognizant of noise in the house because I work from home. Our kids ask if "Momo is coming today" on the weekends - she is going to be missed. I would be more than happy to have a chat about our experience. Our neighbors have often commented on how wonderful she is with the kids and we could not agree more (happy to put you in touch with them if you want more references).

I am recommending our nanny Evelyn who has been with us for four years.she has taken care of our two beloved daughters with grace and patience. When it comes to finding things to do to keep the girls entertained Evelyn was on it. She arranged play dates trips to the zoo,museum,libraries, birthday parties,music class,and story time just to name a few. She was also hands on with reading and doing arts and crafts with the girls. She prepared healthy meals and snacks which the girls loved. She also responsibly kept their rooms,play area and laundry clean.Evelyn is extremely reliable and was always on time. If need be she was also flexible to stay later on a short notice.we initially hired Eve because of her experience of over thirty (30) years as a childcare provider,but her calm demeanor in our home made her a part of our family. She is also a certified baby nurse with CPR training. We exolt the highest recommendation to Eve to care for your little ones. Our girls loves her very much she never missed their birthdays. Eve is looking for long term full-time live out position she also can drive and is willing to travel with the family locally. You will be happy to have her as a part of your happy family too.

Responsible, caring, protective and loving nanny. I don't have a bad word to say about Veronica. She literally never missed a day of work and was always on time. She's flexible and has a sweet and kind demeanor. Veronica remains a part of our family and another family would be lucky to have her.

After lots of soul searching and thought, we have decided to make a change and help our rockstar nanny find a new family so I can take care of our boys full-time until our youngest starts school. This was such a hard decision because we absolutely adore her. We consider her part of our family and always will. She has been our full-time nanny for 2 years, taking care of our 2 boys (ages 6 & 2). She was with her previous family 15 years, and she has over 20 years of experience as a nanny in the UWS. She started when our youngest son was 4 months. I was immediately amazed at how talented she was caring for 2 children. She loved our older son just as much as our baby and was equally good with both ages. She is amazingly organized and planned our son’s well checkups before I even remembered it was time. She took our son to many doctor’s appointments (he had to wear a helmet for 6 months and had appointments in NJ every 2 weeks). She connects with other families and nannies and consistently plans playdates. She is always happy to take our kids to any class, museum, or event. She is someone that is never on their phone and always 100% about the children. She deeply cares about their development and feelings and builds trust right away. She always speaks to our children with love even when they are being challenging. She always comes to work on time, never calls out, and goes above and beyond to help around the house. She is an amazing cook and we often found dinner made for us although we never expected her to do that. She has an amazing sense of humor, so professional, and warm and friendly with everyone. Many times, I had parents approach me to sing her praises after seeing her in the park with our boys. We will miss her every day and want to move heaven and earth to find her a new and wonderful family to support. She is looking for a full-time role only.

Due to kiddo starting preschool our beloved nanny Anastasia will be available starting in late Feb for full-time work in Manhattan and Brooklyn. She is highly trustworthy, punctual, reliable and a great cook whipping up delicious and nutritious meals to boot. Anastasia quickly became a member of our family. She has over two decades of experience working as a nanny and made friends in the nanny network with ease. She coordinated a wide variety of activities including playdates, sports, art and music sessions on a daily basis. Going to work every day it really gave me to know that our tot was in her very capable hands. That kind of peace of mind is priceless. Anastasia needs to be in a household without pets. We'd love to help Anastasia find a good family. Feel free to contact me should want to talk to a reference, vs reach out to Anastasia directly to pick up this gem of a nanny.
