Our nanny, Verilene Roberts (Vee), has been an integral part of our family for the past (almost) 15 years.
From the moment Vee joined us when our son was 3 months old, she brought warmth, patience, and reliability into our home. She cared for our son and then our daughter and kept our house running. She has always been proactive, reliable, and thoughtful, often going above and beyond her duties without being asked. When they were little, Vee made sure the kids were well occupied taking them to the the playground, library, 14th St. Y and various classes and activities over the years.
It’s hard to put into words just how much Vee has meant to us. While we are excited for what lies ahead for her, we are truly sad to see her go. Any family fortunate enough to have Vee in their lives will quickly realize they’ve found someone special.
Elizabeth Stewart helped my husband and I raise our 3 kids from birth for over a decade. She continues to be an integral part of our family as my kids are full grown and stays connected in touch with all of us. And I’m confident all the families she’s cared for and kids who are now full grown would attest to the same. She is incredible with kids of all ages. Her routine, her approach full of love, her smarts, and warmth with a splash of dry humor meets kids (and parents 🙂 at their level. She is loving, trustworthy, loyal and endlessly dependable and also loves music and to sing kids songs. Her experience and wisdom from caring for newborns through kids’ development from nursery through middle school, her calming energy is not only inspiring with kids, its equally a huge support, partnership for parents through all the stages. She is myopic about keeping things in order, neat and clean kids rooms, toys, clothes, laundry and healthy meals. She likes fresh air walks, parks and playgrounds. She supports playdates and connects with other nannies with kids of same ages at school, after school programs and playground. I could gush about her forever. Elizabeth is a special beautiful person that every family, every child should be so lucky to have in their lives.
Lisa is exceptionally intelligent and resourceful, demonstrating both smarts and practical savvy in her approach to childcare. She takes pride in maintaining a clean and organized environment, ensuring that the spaces where children play and learn are always tidy and welcoming. Her ability to connect with children of all ages is truly remarkable, as she adapts her care and communication style to meet each child’s unique needs.
She worked for us for 13 years, starting when my first born was an infant, and my children and I love her like she is our family.
Beyond her relationship with the children, Lisa also interacts seamlessly with every member of the family. She fosters positive relationships not just with the kids, but also with grandparents and other relatives, making her an integral part of the household dynamic. Her friendly and respectful demeanor helps cultivate a harmonious atmosphere within the family, further highlighting her exceptional interpersonal skills.
When both of my kids were babies, she maintained an organized feeding and nap schedule. It totally helped me manage breastfeeding SO MUCH better and I got my life and my boobs back! She also regularly read to them and as most parents know, kids have a favorite book. Lisa holds the record for reading Max the Minnow to my son I think 37 times IN ONE NIGHT. The max I did was 22. He loved that book so much that it fell apart and had to get another one. That speaks to her level of dedication and she knew reading was most important to my ex-husband and I. She also took them for walks in the stroller, and accompanied them to music and tumbling classes. As they progressed in age, she ensured their safe transit riding with them to and from nursery school in an uber. She prepared meals and snacks for them, and as they got older assisted with kumon homework.
She demonstrates exceptional diligence and planning skills, consistently ensuring punctuality for the children’s appointments. Her efficiency is notable—she manages cleaning, dressing, and bathing tasks swiftly and thoroughly.
Her culinary abilities are outstanding; the children highly appreciate her traditional dishes. However, she can follow a recipe and can prepare a wide variety of meals for the kids. I will just say that feeding them food from her background and our background really helped develop their palates. My kids eat spicy food now and are willing to try foods from all cultures. I can’t say they always LIKE them but they at least try.
So I was a new mom and man oh man did I need help but I didn’t know it. I mean I have a Masters! Yeah I did NOT have on in MOM’ing. I will NEVER forget her first morning with us she arranged my son’s room in a more sensible fashion, found clothes I didn’t know he had and got him on a more rational feeding schedule that allowed me more time between breast feedings. With her support, I felt fully assured returning to work, knowing my children were in capable hands.
Her guidance helped me develop organizational skills and improved my approach to parenting. I will always be a working Mom. Just like I have colleagues at work who are experts in their field. I regard her as a “childcare colleague” who continuously demonstrated best practices rather than simply completing assigned tasks. I confidently recommend her to any family, as she is capable of managing multiple children, including infants. New mothers in particular will benefit from her extensive experience.
I also got a wonderful new friend who I will always respect and adore. If we weren’t in to process of leaving NY for my job, I would not be posting on MommyBites.
Our amazing nanny Dato is looking for a new full-time role ideally with a new baby. Dato was with our family from the time our first born was 3months old and lovingly cared for both of our boys over the last 3 years.
Dato is incredibly nurturing and treats the kids like her own. She is always singing songs and playing games. She handles all the meals and feeding, both milk/formula and moving into solids. She’s also extremely clean and organized, both with the kids and around the house, which has been such a bonus. She sets up play dates and fun activities.
Dato is very flexible —always willing to stay late when needed and even does overnights when we travel.
We feel so lucky to have had her as part of our family, and any new family would be lucky to have her.

It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Janine Boucher, who has been with our family for the past 4.5 years. Janine joined us when our son was two years old and I was pregnant with our first daughter, and she has lovingly cared for all 3 of our kids (the girls since they were just three months old.) She has truly become part of our family.
Janine is punctual and dependable—in over four years, she has called in sick only once. She respects our routines and parenting preferences, follows our schedule seamlessly, and always communicates clearly and kindly.
Beyond her professionalism, Janine is a joyful, loving, and deeply engaged caregiver. She is playful, imaginative, and fun—she reads, sings, makes up games, and truly plays with the kids. She spends hours outdoors with them every day and never uses her phone except to send me sweet photos or updates. Our children absolutely adore her, and she loves them as if they were her own.
We feel so lucky to have had Janine as part of our lives during these formative years. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her caring for their children. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can share more about our wonderful experience.

Sandra cared for our children from 2016 to 2020.
During her time with our family, Sandra proved to be an exceptionally reliable, kind-hearted, and capable caregiver. She created a warm, structured, and nurturing environment for our children, balancing play and learning while always
maintaining a calm, confident demeanor—even in challenging situations.
One of Sandra’s greatest strengths is her genuine love for children and her ability to connect with them on their level. Whether organizing creative indoor activities or encouraging outdoor exploration, she always brought energy,
attentiveness, and joy to her work. Our children grew to trust her deeply and looked forward to their time with her each day. She was also incredibly dependable—arriving on time, communicating clearly, and taking her responsibilities seriously. She ensured routines were followed, meals were healthy and timely, and the house was left tidy. Her respect for our family’s values and her ability to anticipate needs made her an indispensable part of our household and someone we ultimately considered a member of our family.
It’s difficult to put into words how much Sandra has meant to our family. While we are sad to part ways during the pandemic when we moved from NYC, we wholeheartedly support her in future opportunities and are confident she
will be a tremendous asset to any family. Sandra excels with all ages of children.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like to speak further about our experience.
I am writing to strongly recommend our nanny Edith. Edith has been with us for over three years and has become an integral part of our family. She started with us to care for our toddler and infant, and she has seamlessly transitioned from caring for our two young children to nurturing our now three children. Edith fiercely loves our children, creates community in the neighborhood, and keeps our children safe. She is attentive to our children’s needs and to ours. Edith has rarely asked for time away, and when she does, she will try to accommodate our schedule and children’s needs as best as she can. We are sad to part ways with Edith, but we will be moving out of the city, which is too far for her to commute. If she could commute to our future home, we would keep her.

Wonderful nanny available!
My daughter’s nanny, Nadine, is available and looking to start with a new family. We’re relocating overseas and will miss her dearly.
She has years of experience taking care of little ones and helped me so much as a first time mom. She has also been on-time and flexible.
She looked after our little one since she was 4 months old and has been with us for 6 months. She read, sang and played with her every day, supporting her through key development milestones.
Her duties included making formula and purees, washing and ironing baby clothes, bathing, taking our little one out to the park and on play dates, tidying her room and generally anything to make our daughter’s day more enjoyable. Our daughter always came home happy and smiling after a day out with Nadine!
Nadine can be contacted at 917-279-0512.
It is with great pleasure that I introduce our wonderful nanny. She is a professional from Colombia who is not only loving, dedicated, and low-maintenance, but also incredibly attentive to every detail of our children’s care. Our kids are full of energy, and she handles them with patience, joy, and creativity—always suggesting activities that spark their imagination and encourage exploration, especially outdoors at nearby parks. She cooks delicious meals, keeps their closets organised, and is deeply invested in their development.
She is remarkably reliable, always mindful of schedules (often reminding us of things we forget), and goes above and beyond in every way. Beyond childcare, she is also available for house and pet sitting when needed.
We are truly sad to see her go, but we are committed to helping her find the best possible family—because she absolutely deserves it. She has been an incredible support for our family, and we recommend her wholeheartedly.
She will be available to start with a new family by the end of November or early December.
Hi All, we moved out of the city and our beloved nanny of 2+ years is looking for a new family.

She helped our daughter make her first best friends, exceed all her milestones & even prep for school. I would love for her to find a great new role and family! Also, she is a certified Newborn Care specialist, too. Let me know if you’re interested and I can pass on the details
🌟 Wonderful Nanny Available for a New Family 🌟
We are heartbroken to be saying goodbye to our amazing nanny, Eyon, who has been a true blessing to our family. She’s been with us caring for our two children (ages 5 and 10), and we can’t say enough good things about her.
Eyon is loving, patient, and incredibly responsible. She has a wonderful way with children – our kids absolutely adore her – and she’s been such a positive, calm, and dependable presence in our home. She’s punctual, trustworthy, and goes above and beyond to make sure the kids are happy, safe, and engaged.
We’re only parting ways because of a change in our work situation — not because of anything she’s done. Any family would be lucky to have her.
She’s available to start as soon as needed, and we’re happy to speak directly with any interested families to share more about our experience working with her.
If you’re looking for a kind, capable, and caring nanny, Eyon is truly exceptional.
Hello! Our wonderful nanny will be available for a new position starting in January. She has cared for our son (6) and daughter (2) for over five years, and has truly become part of our family. Now that my daughter has started school and I’m taking an extended career pause to stay home, we no longer need full-time care. It’s with a very heavy heart that we’re helping her find her next family—she has been an incredible caretaker and an even more wonderful person.
She’s experienced with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children and is seeking a full-time role beginning in January. A few of the many things that make her exceptional:
Utterly reliable: In 5+ years, she has never been late—not once!
Proactive and social: She effortlessly builds connections with other caregivers and families, creating a network of playdates and friendships (many of our own friends came from her initiative!).
Meal prep & nutrition: Thoughtful and health-conscious with kids’ meals.
Potty training pro: She successfully potty trained both my kids—in three days.
Organized & intuitive: Always two steps ahead with routines, schedules, and logistics.
Excellent communicator: She provides detailed, transparent updates about your child’s day.
If you’re looking for a professional, nurturing, and dedicated full-time nanny starting in January, we truly can’t recommend her highly enough—any family would be lucky to have her.
I can not say enough praise for my nanny Cheryl and would love to see her find a wonderful new family. Cheryl was with our family since my son was 2 months and after just one day with her, his face lit up whenever she would arrive. Cheryl is extremely reliable, kind, energetic, trustworthy and nurturing. She is very active and would take him for walks, to the library, to the park, or to classes. I appreciated she was always reading, talking, or singing to him and believe she directly impacted his early verbal skills. She was always on time and flexible with her schedule to meet our needs. Our family moved to Long Island and it was very hard to leave Cheryl as she truly was a part of our family. She is looking for a new full or part time nanny position and comfortable with a wide range of ages from newborns to school age. You will fall in love with Cheryl, just as we did!
Nickey was a nanny for our 1 year old for 2 years. She was very loving, caring, and attentive to our kid’s needs. We didn’t need a nanny as she started going to Montessori school. Nickey was always punctual and made sure she always checked in throughout the day to let us know how things were going. Nickey became a part of our family and we still see her sometimes on weekends. She was super easy to work with and took direction really well. She also was amazing at making friends with other nannies at the park so she could coordinate play dates. We would 100% refer her and hoping she finds a great family and kid(s) to work with.
Shanta is an incredibly warm, flexible, nurturing, punctual, organized and honest caregiver. She worked with my family for over two years starting when my son was two years old. She cared for him in all ways, engaging him in the community, helping him reach milestones and furthermore cared for my home and made my life so much easier. She lived in with my family when we transitioned to a home in the suburbs with a new baby. She was always willing to go above and beyond, stay late, traveled with us and truly felt like a part of my family. She’s extremely professional and everything you could want in a nanny.
Denise worked as nanny to our toddler daughter for a year until I had the opportunity to leave my job to focus on family. She began taking care of our daughter when our daughter was approximately 14 months to approximately 25 months old.
Denise is an engaged, affectionate, and helpful nanny. She was fully present with our daughter and we never saw her use a phone or headphones in front of her. Further, Denise was thoughtful and creative in how she played with our daughter. She often made up songs; for example, she taught us a “goodbye” song to help the transition to leave the playground that we still use. Also, she created fun and developmentally appropriate games out of existing materials. For example, for our daughter to practice fine motor skills, Denise created a fun game to practice putting small sticks into the bolt holes at the playground. Also, to develop our daughter’s vocabulary and memory, Denise drew photos of fruit
on leftover cardboard to create a matching game.
We also greatly appreciated Denise’s gentle manner. For example, she never used loud noises to wake our daughter from her nap; instead, she coaxed her awake by engaging her curiosity.
Denise is a caring person who clearly adored our daughter and often gifted our daughter developmentally appropriate toys and books to show her affection. When I was sick, she made me a delicious and healing ginger tea.
Denise was also very proactive in helping our family. She never asked me to purchase baby pouches or puffs to make her life easier; she instead made our daughter’s meals, including salmon cakes, peanut butter oatmeal pancakes, and chicken with vegetables. She swept our floors, always left our kitchen spotless, and even cleaned our bathrooms when our daughter started school part-time.
Denise fit well into our family. Even our dog took to Denise immediately, and her positive interactions with her made our lives easier. Her next family is very lucky.
