Our lovely nanny, Afyia, is looking for another family to grow with. We did a nanny-share with another family, and she has been with us since our babies were just 3 months old. Time flies, so our babies are 2 and about to head to preschool. Afyia came to us with over 10 years’ experience, which is 100% what we needed as first-time parents – a nanny with solid professional experience caring for more than one child. We were amazed that she was able to get both of our babies on a consistent nap schedule immediately, so they’re great sleepers. She has a gentle, sweet, calming energy that our baby could feel from the first time they met. Our babies both started crying, and the four of us parents looked over at Afyia. She just Afyia picked them both up, and they stopped crying instantly. It was everything we needed to know. I work from home all the time, and she always brings a quiet, calming presence to our home.
What makes her different? One thing that I really loved is that, while so many nannies (we are all susceptible) are on their phones all the time in the park, Afyia is so present. We’ve had other parents from the neighborhood, the librarian, and the teacher of a local music class approach us on the street to tell us how great Afyia is, so even though we didn’t often get to see her in action, we completely trust her judgement.
Even now that our little guy is full of non-stop toddler energy and no-no-no, she is so good with him. She taught him to say, “please”! (sometimes). She read him books, plays with him, and takes him out to the library and to the many parks in our area every day.
Bonus: She is highly professional, extremely reliable and has never once been late in all the months she’s been with us. If you’re a working parent, you’ll understand how very important this is.
I am delighted to recommend our nanny, who has cared for our family and our child for the past twelve years. During this time, she has become a deeply trusted and valued member of our household.
From the very beginning, she demonstrated exceptional warmth, patience, responsibility, and dedication. She provided loving, attentive, and consistent care throughout every stage of our child’s development. Her calm nature, excellent judgment, and ability to create a safe and nurturing environment gave us complete peace of mind.
Over the years, she has also developed extensive expertise as a newborn specialist. She is highly knowledgeable about newborn care, including feeding routines, sleep schedules, soothing techniques, bathing, changing, establishing healthy routines, and recognizing a baby’s individual needs. She is confident, gentle, organized, and exceptionally attentive to both the child and the parents.
She is dependable, trustworthy, discreet, and hardworking. She takes great pride in her work and always goes above and beyond to ensure that the child in her care is happy, healthy, secure, and well supported. She is also respectful of family values and routines, and she communicates clearly and professionally.
Our child has been incredibly fortunate to have her care and guidance for so many years. We recommend her without hesitation to any family seeking an experienced, loving, and highly capable nanny or newborn specialist. She would be a wonderful addition to any household.
Felix is starting school, and naturally our family’s schedule is shifting. As a result, our rock, Vashty, is looking for a new family to support and a new child to care for, nurture and love. If our circumstances were not changing, we would have Vashty continue caring for Felix.
Vashty started looking after our son Felix in February 2024, when he was just three months old. Over the past two and a half years, she has seen him grow from a baby into a (very) young man. He is happy, confident, kind, curious, present and increasingly independent, and so many of these qualities are, to a significant degree, thanks to Vashty. She has become a member of our family.
Most importantly, we trust Vashty completely. She has tremendous judgment and a quiet confidence that stands out. She is kind and deeply loving, but also clear and consistent. Her experience and personality allow her to instinctively understand when to let things roll, when to say no, and how to set boundaries in a way that Felix understands and responds to.
Vashty is exceptionally reliable. She is always on time for her 8 a.m. start and walks through our door with a smile and a warm good morning. She takes real ownership of Felix’s days rather than waiting to be told what to do.
That initiative extends well beyond our home. At the playground, time and again, we have seen parents and other nannies turn to Vashty, trust her judgment and think very highly of her. She has built a wonderful community among the nannies and families in our neighborhood. She knows what’s going on—activities at the library, the soccer program the kids love, birthday parties, playdates and everything in between—and creates a rich and varied schedule for Felix. Through her, he has developed many friendships and is now starting school already knowing many of his classmates. Her role in socializing Felix has been pivotal.
But what matters most to us is the relationship she has built with our son. Felix loves and trusts Vashty, and she genuinely loves him. As parents, there is very little that matters more than knowing that the person caring for your child when you are not there is both extraordinarily capable and deeply invested in his happiness and development. Vashty is remarkably engaged with him and has never relied on screens to occupy him, instead filling his days with conversation, play, books, activities and time outside.
Vashty is fantastic, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had her as such an important part of Felix’s first years. She has confidently managed every aspect of his daily routine. I cannot recommend her more highly. Any family would be fortunate to have her, and we would be enthusiastic to speak with prospective families and answer any questions as they consider the person they will entrust with their most precious family member.
Working with Nerisia has been an absolute dream for the last 3.5 years. Nerisia approaches every day with kindness, energy, and adventure. She is fantastic with newborns and has supported our daughter’s development from 6 weeks through all of her major milestones. She has organized her meals every day, done laundry each week for both of our kids, and has curated exciting daily adventures around New York City. She has organized a wonderful playgroup for our daughter and even arranged and decorated her birthday parties. Whether it was picnics, playdates, museums, or rainy day art activities, Nerisia has always ensured that our daughter’s day was structured and engaging.
In addition to the joy and warmth that she brings to her interactions with children, Nerisia is a real professional. She is an excellent communicator, always ensuring that we are on the same page about instilling strong values and manners in our children, and demonstrating them herself. She has gone out of her way to help educate our children, helping our first grader with homework and teaching our three-year-old her letters. In addition to being truly devoted to our children, Nerisia is also extremely thoughtful, reliable, and always on time!! Our whole family sees Nerisia and her family as a part of our own, and she will be long after she finds another family to work with, just as she continues to be in the lives of the families that she has worked with in the past.
We would be thrilled to answer any questions about Nerisia.
Our beloved former nanny of nine years, Anita O’Reilly, is looking for full-time employment. Anita was hard working, conscientious, affectionate, and a true partner in raising our children. She managed both kids’ school and activity schedules, and she easily handled both children at home, out at playgrounds, at indoor facilities when the weather is bad, and getting to and from all of these places. She was always punctual and is a reliable employee.
Most of all, it was a blessing to be able to leave the house every morning knowing that our children would be with someone who will treat them as her own children. My son said all the time that he wanted Anita to stay at our house and spend the night; he thought of her as part of the family and couldn’t understand why she had to go somewhere else once I got home each day. He even coined the term “mommynita” to refer to the two of us. When my husband arrived home before I did, he always commented to me later that evening how happy he was with the way Anita interacted with the kids. Both sets of grandparents made similar comments, as did our neighbors.
I am happy to speak by phone with anyone who is considering hiring Anita to care for their child or children. We want to do whatever we can to help her find a new family to work for!
I’m delighted to recommend Denise Garcia to any family searching for an experienced, nurturing, and genuinely dependable nanny.
Denise worked with our family from June 2025 through July 2026, providing full-time care for our newborn twins beginning when they were just one month old through their first birthday. Entrusting someone with two newborns is no small decision, and Denise quickly became someone we could rely on and trust completely.
She is exceptionally patient, attentive, loving, and capable of managing the demands of caring for multiple infants simultaneously. Denise handled their feeding and nap schedules, bottles, diapering, developmental activities, tummy time, walks, and day-to-day routines while always maintaining a calm and nurturing environment. She was wonderful about engaging them through reading, music, sensory play, and age-appropriate activities as they reached new developmental milestones.
One of Denise’s greatest strengths is her ability to become a true extension of the family. She communicates well, respects the parents’ preferences and routines, takes initiative when needed, and most importantly, genuinely loves and cares for the children entrusted to her.
Denise also has several years of long-term nanny experience, including caring for children from infancy through early childhood. She is comfortable with newborns, infants, toddlers, young children, and twins and understands how children’s needs evolve as they grow.
Denise is currently looking for a new family to support, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a nanny who is reliable, experienced, affectionate, patient, and committed to providing exceptional care.
Any family would be fortunate to have Denise caring for their children.
If interested you can reach out to Denise directly, I guarantee you’ll be happy you do.
Adi is the best nanny! She joined us when my son was about 3 months old. He was born super small and had pretty terrible reflux, so it was no easy task for her. She approached everything with him with such care and confidence. As a first time mom returning to work, I felt so comfortable leaving Adi with my son.
As he got older, she was wonderful at finding things to do with him! She is bright and friendly, and always making friends with the other nannys. Our son is always happy with Adi around.
For first time moms in particular, she was perfect. She is experienced and knows how to help when your baby is sick or fussy or teething, etc. I remember the first time my son had a fever, I was so upset. She calmly got him in the tub to cool him down a bit. Her calm demeanor immediately helped to calm our son. I’ll always be thankful she was there to help me learn!
She is very respectful and doesn’t overly insert herself. She is a pleasure to have in the house. Both my husband and I found it very easy to work from home when needed and feel totally at ease.
Sadly, we moved out to Florida and couldn’t take Adi with us. Happy to speak and answer any questions. We want her to find a great new family!
Looking for a Wonderful New Family for My Nanny ❤️
I highly recommend my nanny, who has over 25 years of experience caring for children. She is a truly sweet, loving, responsible, and efficient person who always goes above and beyond for the families she works with.
She is bilingual in English and Spanish and is experienced with all aspects of childcare…from keeping children safe and happy to preparing meals, organizing their routines, helping with daily activities, and making sure everything they need is taken care of.
She is dependable, caring, hardworking, and treats the children she cares for as if they were her own. Any family would be very lucky to have her!
If you or someone you know is looking for an experienced and trustworthy nanny, please feel free to reach out to me for more information or references. ❤️
Beloved Nanny of 5 Years — Now Available
We are so sad to be writing this, but our family is relocating and our incredible nanny, Tita, is now looking for her next family.
Tita has been with us for 5 years, starting with our oldest at just 6 months old, and caring for our youngest from infancy as well. She is fluent in Spanish, incredibly warm and affectionate, and our kids absolutely adore her.
A few things that make Tita special:
– Trusted with our children since they were tiny infants, through every milestone — gentle, attentive, and endlessly patient from day one
– Warm, social, and a natural community-builder — she helped organize a local nanny group and is loved by other nannies and families alike
– An amazing home cook who makes nutritious, kid-approved meals every day — and her tacos are the best you’ll ever try
– Does the most beautiful hairstyles for the kids
If you’re looking for a nanny who feels like family, we cannot recommend Tita enough. Please reach out for more details or contact her directly.

Our former nanny, Aleia, is looking for full-time employment beginning this fall. We first met Aleia in 2017 when she was working in her first job as a teacher at our older son’s daycare, where her warmth and skill with children immediately impressed us. When we needed childcare for our baby, we knew she would be perfect for our family.
Aleia cared for both of our children since 2020 and was fantastic. She’s energetic, and has a special talent for working with babies and toddlers. Her patience seems endless, and she brings positive energy to our home.
What sets Aleia apart is how engaged she is with children. She’s constantly thinking of new activities, whether it’s trips to the playground, library story time, or playdates at home. She kept us well-informed throughout the day with updates and photos.
Aleia has been reliable and flexible. She rarely took time off, was almost never sick, and was more than willing to accommodate our changing schedules when work demands require it. She’s also open to occasional travel with a family if needed.
We were sad to lose Aleia, but both of our children have reached ages where they no longer need the same level of care. We cannot recommend her highly enough – any family would be lucky to have someone so dedicated, caring, and naturally gifted with children.
Mimi first started with us when our daughter was 5 months old and she immediately became one of the family. She has many years experience and is happy to take my daughter out to new places and has explored many of our local parks and suggested local classes for her to take which have all helped her development greatly.
My daughter was always on top of her milestones and I credit it to Mimi teaching her how to move and play from the time she was small. In addition to taking care of my daughter, she also helps around the house and always cleans up my daughter’s room.
She is always on time and will come early or stay late if we need. She would be the perfect nanny for a newborn and can give them the best head start, teaching them everything from how to climb to how to talk. She will take on whatever activities my daughter wants whether it’s reading books or building with blocks or coloring. She is always recommending things that have worked for her in the past which makes life as a parent so much easier.
On top of all that, she knows how much I love getting pictures and updates from their day together and sends both throughout the day so I always feel included in even though I am working. She is also very friendly with my dog.
She currently works in Forest Hills is available to work in Manhattan/Queens/Brooklyn.
Cristiana has been an integral part of our family for the past four years, starting when our older son was just 10 weeks old. Since then, she has cared for both of our sons with a level of devotion, warmth, and love that makes them feel like her own children.
From a practical and developmental standpoint, Cristiana is exceptional. She has consistently prepared healthy, nutritious meals that our boys love, starting from the day we introduced solids. She keeps their spaces clean and manages their laundry, ensuring our family is always organized and ready for the week ahead. Beyond excellent physical care, she has enriched our children’s lives by teaching them Spanish and introducing them to music and movement. She is full of joy, constantly dancing and singing – a wonderful energy that she has passed on to both of our boys.
Cristiana also understands the importance of early socialization. From a very young age, she regularly took the boys to the park, helping them build social skills and make friends in the community. Our older son had 15 kids at his first birthday party, just from friends in the park 🙂
As a communicator, she is thoughtful and intuitive. When we were brand-new parents, she gently helped us navigate the steep learning curve of infancy, offering invaluable guidance while always deferring to and respecting our ultimate judgment.
Cristiana has been a gift to our family. She brings joy, structure, education, and deep affection into the home every single day. I recommend her with the absolute highest confidence. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her.
Please feel free to contact me at 914-523-3709 if you would like to discuss her qualifications further.

Lina is AMAZING. She has been crucial in my child’s development during the half a year she helped to make her blossom. The only reason we are parting with her is because our schedule changed, and we are heartbroken to have to let her go. Our entire family loves Lina. She is caring, thoughtful, mindful, punctual, patient and the list goes on! I was particularly grateful for her ability to ensure we were on the same page by asking questions to avoid misunderstandings.
I know my baby is in good hands with her not just because she literally squeals with joy and rushes to meet her when she comes to the door, but because I have seen Lina adapt to her needs as my baby went from fragile infant to curious toddler.
Any child and family who have her in her life are assured a ray of sunshine even in the darkest of days. We are happy to talk to you if you have any questions about our experience with her.
We are looking to help our wonderful former nanny Rose find her next family. Rose (or Rosie as she likes to be called) was a caring and reliable caretaker to our two kids for 5 years from when our youngest was a baby until he started school full time two years ago. Our kids love her and were so sorry to see her go when we no longer needed a nanny. We would love to find Rose another loving family to work for since we know she would be a great addition to anyone’s family. Rose is extremely reliable and was never late in her 5 years with us. She helped with all child-related needs (laundry, tidying, cooking dinner, etc.), organized playdates and found great activities in the neighborhood. She was a major reason our youngest made friends before he was in school which helped him so much when he was little. She is a truly caring person and would be a great caretaker to anyone’s kids.
She is looking for a part time position but would commit to full time for the right family.
Fantastic, experienced nanny available starting mid-September 2026. Full time, Brooklyn preferred.
Our nanny has been caring for our daughter since she was 6 months old and has been a trusted partner in her care while we work full time. She worked with her prior family for 7 years, from infancy to eventually two children, and with other families before that. Our daughter will be starting preschool in the fall, and we will be sad to not have Lucilla take care of her every day,
Lucilla has an even-keeled and steady demeanor, and is calm and patient with our daughter. She prepares her meals, reads books, sings, engages her fine motor skills, and takes her to the playground or playroom every day, as well as to any classes or activities that we have scheduled.
As first-time parents, we appreciated drawing from her knowledge of developmental milestones and years of childcare experience while also having the freedom to make the final call. She doesn’t mind recommending what she thinks will be helpful and is also 100% respectful if we go a different route.
Couldn’t recommend Lucilla more highly to a family who is looking for a reliable and loving caretaker with lots of experience.
If you are looking for a nanny, I’d be happy to give more information, or you can also contact Lucilla directly.
Our previous nanny, Delia, is one of a kind. She took care of our two sons for almost 3 years – started when our oldest was 10 months old and then took my second son when he was 10 weeks old.
Delia is extremely reliable, always on time, professional, and a heart of gold. She is extremely experienced with children (she has adult children of her own (and a grandchild) and somehow is so warm, but also strong (the children love her, and also respect her). She balanced the two kids perfectly – we now have a third and I wouldn’t hesitate having her watch all three full time. Delia watched the kids in the apartment, but also went out and about too so her and the kids could get a lot of outside time. She’ll follow whatever guidelines parents give!
We moved states, which is the only reason we don’t work together anymore – but if we were near each other, I would hire Delia again in a heart beat. We love her and any family will be absolutely lucky to have her. For context, she lives in Westchester County, so Westchester preferred, but is open to Bronx/Queens, Manhattan, and then Brooklyn.
Our daughter is starting daycare this fall, and our wonderful nanny is looking for a new full-time role! Barbara has worked as a nanny for more than 20 years, and has experience with newborns, infants, toddlers, and multiples. She is absolutely everything we wanted in a nanny: kind, loving, attentive, proactive, punctual, responsible, and reliable beyond measure.
She brings a warmth and happiness with her that infiltrates our home. She truly goes above and beyond to care for our daughter. An illustrative example of that is how Barbara handled a months-long situation where my daughter refused to nap anywhere but her stroller. Without hesitation, Barbara strolled her around for 2-3 hours each day, refusing a break, because she insisted that our daughter’s rest was that important to her. That’s who Barbara is.
Right now, Barbara’s schedule with us is 9-5 pm Monday through Friday, but she’s always flexible. When we’ve needed her to come earlier or stay later she is always happily willing to accommodate us. She also babysits for us on nights and weekends, which is a huge help!
I am happy to answer any and all questions and can provide multiple references from her prior families. Please reach out!
