Our beloved nanny Joann is available after having spent over 20 years with us helping to raise our 3 sons. My husband and I were both able to keep working full time because of Joann’s love and care. Our sons are now grown up and out of the house and still adore her. She is an integral part of our family. We have lived throughout that time in Greenwich Village and Joann accompanied the boys through the various phases of their growing up – joining them for classes and taking them to the playground and playdates when they were younger and then ferrying too and from school. appointments and activities as the grew older. She cleaned up after them, did their laundry, and cooked them delicious meals throughout. She is reliable, trustworthy, loving and kind and treated our boys as if they were her own. I recommend her highly.
Jill is an outstanding nanny who raised our children from 3 months to 6 years. We absolutely loved her. So did all of our friends and family. Jill is extremely professional. Always on time. She rarely needed a day off. She never talked on the phone while watching our children. She prioritized getting them out of the house and to the park versus stuck inside. We loved that. Jill helped our family through all the children’s milestones. Potty training, tying their shoes, learning how to scooter! She helped identify that my daughter had acid reflux and taught us some tricks to comfort her during that time. Cannot say enough wonderful things. Any family would be lucky to have her.
I would love to recommend of lovely nanny as we’re moving across the country. If there were any way for us to take her along with us, we definitely would!
Norissa has been with us since our son was 6 months old and has been an incredibly loving, playful, and steady presence in his life. He runs to the door as soon as he hears her come in! From our very first interaction, it was clear that she deeply cares for and loves children. Her strong knowledge of child development, paired with her warmth and playfulness, has encouraged our son through each milestone. She also helped us with several difficult issues, including a strong solids aversion and sleep struggles.
I’ve had the privilege of seeing how she shows up with my son everyday, and she is always fully present and focused on him: playing, singing, talking, reading, and laughing with him. She takes him on daily outings to the park and playground, brings him to classes, and has even helped him find friends in the neighborhood to have playdates with!
Norissa is extremely reliable and dependable and has always accommodated our changing schedules or additional hours when needed. She’s also been very helpful with preparing my toddler’s meals, tidying, and doing laundry and dishes.
I cannot recommend her enough and think she’ll make be a great addition for your family.
Our nanny has been with us for the past 8 years in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. She has cared for our two children with an incredible level of thoughtfulness, warmth, and consistency, and has truly become an extension of our family. Our children constantly ask for her when she is not around. Our daughter has severe food allergies, and our Nanny has been exceptional in managing that.
She is deeply attentive to children’s needs and brings a calm, nurturing presence to everything she does. Roveena is also incredibly proactive. She has built a strong network of local caregivers and regularly organizes playdates, which has been especially valuable in helping our kids build friendships. She is well connected in our Williamsburg/Greenpoint neighborhood, however. she could be great in any area, quickly learning the best play spaces, classes, and parks. She naturally builds relationships with other nannies and families.
We have reduced our hours and we are now actively looking for her next family. We are happy to answer any questions!
I cannot recommend Andrea (aka Jackie) highly enough! Words truly fall short, but I will try.
Jackie is, quite simply, the embodiment of the phrase “above and beyond.” From day 1, her presence will bring a level of peace, competence, and grounded confidence into your home that you likely didn’t even realize was missing.
Jackie is a quintessential NYC Nanny, and as such, she is currently seeking a quintessential NYC Nanny position: Long term and full-time, ideally with an infant or toddler. She is open to All of New York City and Northern NJ as well. (Hoboken/Weehawken, Edgewater, Bergen County, etc)
Where should I even begin? She is college-educated with over 20 years of childcare experience, and fluent/bilingual in English and Spanish, which in itself is an incredible gift for your children.
Her approach to childcare is exceptional and deeply rooted in modern, respectful, gentle philosophies. When I first met her, she said with total confidence: “RIE and Montessori, that is simply WHAT I DO!!!” Man oh man she absolutely meant it! She embodies these methods in a way that is both knowledgeable and deeply human/relatable. She understands infant and toddler development intuitively and responds to children with patience, respect, and remarkable skill, especially in tricky toddler moments.
I am a mom of 2 under 2, and during my postpartum period, Jackie quite literally helped bring my entire household back to life. She didn’t just “help.” She jumped right in, restored order, calmness, and warmth to what was an overwhelming season of pure chaos before she stepped in. She instinctively knows how to support every single member of the family, maintains discretion, yet proactively meets every need without being asked. When Jackie rings the bell, it genuinely feels like a weight lifts off your shoulders instantly.
Beyond childcare, which is her specialty, Jackie’s cooking and household skills are also are pristine. Her food is not just nourishing, it is genuinely made with appreciation of culture, love, and care.
Jackie always took the initiative to plan thoughtful neighborhood outings, engaging activities, and enriching experiences for the children, both indoors and outdoors. She moves through the city with the confidence of a “city-slicker” and arrives punctually.
Most importantly, Jackie genuinely LOVES what she does, which unfortunately is rare to find in today’s time. Being a Nanny is not just a paycheck to her, it’s her life’s work and she’s proud to put her name on it every single day.
Your children will be loved, understood, active, and fully immersed in Spanish if Jackie is part of your home. I promise you, the entire household will function better, calmer, and happier because of her presence! I know it’s overwhelming to find a Nanny, so do yourself a favor and stop interviewing others. SHE IS THE ONE!
Sandra is a true gem. She was our full time nanny for four years, starting when our son was one years old and then taking on another child when our daughter was born a year later. Although Sandra started her career as a teacher, she has spent the majority of her time as a full time nanny. Her passion for children and teaching is evident immediately upon meeting her. She is patient, loving and so kind. She genuinely loves kids and our son warmed up to her right away. Sandra was incredibly engaging – always planning activities, thoroughly loved strolling him, visiting parks or just playing outside. Sandra was also super thoughtful of our household needs as well. She would take notice of grocery items and replace without being asked, prepare meals for the kids and always make sure the house was tidy of kids toys before she left.
With our permission, Sandra spoke to our son exclusively in Spanish and he quickly picked it up as a second language. When our second baby was born, i went remote full time with work and we were all in close quarters. Sandra never missed a beat. She would jump in to wash bottles, prepare bottles and help get the baby to and from me when she was ready to nurse. My entire family formed such a strong bond with Sandra. She is, and will remain, family to us. My children adore her and we are so grateful for the time we have had with her. I highly recommend Sandra. She is just a joy to be around and I admire her in so many ways. I would be happy to email or schedule time for a call if you have questions or need additional information. I want to make sure Sandra finds a great next family!
Our nanny, Marrissa, is looking for her next family, and I want to make sure she finds a great one!
Marrissa has been with us since our kids were 3 years and 3 months old, nearly six years ago. She’s become part of our family. When our baby girl had trouble settling down for naps, Marrissa would just hold her for her entire nap to ensure she got enough sleep. That’s just who she is.
She’s one of the most reliable people I’ve ever met. I think she called out sick only once in six years!
Marrissa is also quietly wonderful in all the small ways that add up. She notices the melon on the counter that needs to be cut, the toys that need tidying, the clothes my daughter has grown out of that need to be passed along. She takes care of things without being asked and without making a big deal of it. Honestly, my daughter would choose “Riri” over me in an emergency. 😆
She now does school bus pickups, afternoon activities, and all the invisible work of helping two kids grow into good people. She’s a native English speaker (from Guyana), authorized to work in the US, and raised four children of her own. She has worked with multiple families here in New York, each for several years, and can provide glowing references.
Please contact Marrissa directly at 718.916.9420. DM me if you have specific questions — happy to talk.
Barbara has been with us for 3.5 years and done the most amazing job caring for our son. She started with us when he was 4 months old and has become a second mother to him during this time. She is incredibly talented at working with kids, and we are forever grateful for her help and support in raising our son. We are moving to the suburbs, so we are helping her find her next family. If we were going to stay in the city long term, we would have kept Barbara with us for years to come. The hardest part of moving out of the city is that we won’t be able to have her continue being the nanny to our son.
As a work from home mom, I have gotten to know Barbara very well because we have been together almost every day together for the last 3.5 years. Barbara is professional, incredibly reliable and very hard-working. Since she has been with us I have never worried about our son’s safety or well-being, which is priceless. Every day I am fully confident that our precious boy is loved and happy when he is under her care. She is always on time and arrives every day with a smile ready to jump into whatever the day holds. Barbara is incredibly patient, kind and has endless energy. Barbara has been with us through the baby, toddler and now kid era and through each phase she has done an amazing job navigating his current needs. She is excellent at keeping him on his schedule, taking him to all sorts of activities, arranging playdates and organizing fun days out to the museums or parks. Barbara has a long track record of working for families that absolutely adore her and never want to let her go. She is someone you can trust, and I am confident that her next family will love her as much as we do.
Barbara’s ideal placement would be fully time and with a family who has young children so that she can grow with them. She would prefer to work on the books but is open to discussion.
I believe there is no greater testament than to entrust a person with the care and oversight of one’s child – my wife and I have done just that with Omwattie (Jennifer) Williams, as she has taken care of our now 13–year old daughter since she was just four months old.
Over the past decade and more, we have come to know Jennifer as a morally upright woman, a dedicated mother whose background as an educator of young children has shone through in raising her own children from smart boys into strong men. This dedication is matched only by her devotion to her husband, who practices medicine in their native Guyana.
Jennifer values family, friendship and laughter, learning in all forms, culture, nurturing food and a good book. She is highly dependable, trustworthy and conscientious – we recommend her as nanny and sitter without reservation and if helpful, would be happy to speak further upon her behalf.
Additional Profile / Qualifications:
– Kind and gentle former school teacher who is wonderful with children (ages 0 – 10+)
– Handles light cleaning and laundry for our family
– Excellent cook when requested
– Adept at coordinating, managing playdates, navigating city and subways
– Open to dog-walking, depending on breed (we have a small morkie)
Hi everyone! I’d like to introduce you to our amazing nanny of 9 years, Lucia. She joined us when my oldest was just a few months old, and she has been the backbone of our home ever since.
As the kids have grown and their needs have changed, we no longer require full-time care. She is now looking for a new part-time role or two (approximately 20-30 hours per week max) that focuses on the active, school-age phase (elementary and up) that can include navigating city commutes, managing busy activity schedules, and being a “bridge” between school and home. She’s looking in Brooklyn (preferred) or Manhattan.
As a side note, Lucia is also an avid (and incredibly talented) crafter and creator of fun things – she’d be a great asset for school-age kids, helping with projects or encouraging creativity.
Her crafty side, combined with her experience and caring nature, makes her an amazing fit for a part-time role with school-age kids.
I can’t say enough great things about Lucia! She has been such an important part of our family for so long. The kids adore her and, most importantly, feel safe and secure with her, which has been such a godsend for this working mom! She has had several long-term families throughout her career and stays in touch with all of them – a true testament to the kind of person she is. She is experienced in managing kids’ food allergies with care and diligence and focuses on safety-first in everything she does.
If you are looking for a someone to help manage your kids’ school-year logistics and provide a warm, stable environment for your children, you truly cannot do better than Lucia.
This is my contact number.

Rachael came into our lives when our daughter, Klaudia, was just six months old, during a time when I was a new mother working full-time in critical care, far from my immediate family in California. Without the day-to-day support of family nearby, we were navigating parenthood largely on our own—and Rachael truly became the person who guided us through it. In so many ways, she didn’t just care for Klaudia—she taught us how to be parents.
From the very beginning, she brought a warmth and presence that immediately put us at ease. I still remember our first meeting—she walked into the room and instantly lit it up. As a new parent, it is incredibly difficult to trust someone else with your child, but with Rachael, that trust came quickly and deeply. I always felt completely safe and comfortable knowing Klaudia was in her care, which is something that cannot be overstated.
Rachael has over 20 years of childcare experience, and it shows in everything she does. She has worked with a wide range of families, including those with multiple children and children with special needs, and she approaches every situation with confidence, patience, and genuine love. She is consistently punctual, reliable, and an excellent communicator. Childcare with Rachael has always felt like a true partnership—she is thoughtful, proactive, and always open to discussing ways to support Klaudia’s growth and development.
She has been there for our family in both the everyday moments and the most difficult ones. When Klaudia was hospitalized at two years old for breathing difficulties, Rachael was by my side the entire time—supporting me as a mother while also caring for Klaudia with unwavering attention and love. She has always made herself available for our family, often adjusting her schedule, staying late when needed, and helping with date nights so my husband and I could have time together.
Rachael is a natural caregiver in every sense of the word. She is fully present—never distracted, never on her phone—and always deeply engaged with Klaudia. She has taken her to countless appointments, including pediatrician, dental, and ophthalmology visits, and has been instrumental in building Klaudia’s daily structure and routine. Beyond that, she has created a rich and joyful world for her—bringing her to gymnastics, art classes, the library, and community spaces like the botanical gardens, zoo, and Coney Island. Through Rachael’s strong connections in the childcare community, Klaudia has also built meaningful friendships with other children.
Over the years, Rachael has become so much more than a nanny—she is truly part of our family. I genuinely believe that Klaudia is a happier, more curious, more resilient, and emotionally secure child because of the love, consistency, and care Rachael has given her.
While we are transitioning to school and this chapter is coming to a close, the decision is incredibly difficult because of how much Rachael means to us. We know without a doubt that we will remain in touch, and that she will always be an important part of our lives.
Any family would be extraordinarily lucky to have her.
It is with great pleasure that I offer a wholehearted recommendation of our former nanny, Yanie Tajon. Yanie has been an incredible addition to our family over the last several years. Any family that has the chance to work with Yanie will find themselves very lucky.
Yanie began working with us when my son was 4 months old, and was with us for 3.5 hears, also taking care of my younger daughter when she was born. We parted ways only because we moved out of the country, and we all miss Yanie greatly. She exudes warmth and love, and she and my children built an incredible bond. She is kind, gentle, compassionate, and professional. Yanie is a clear and direct communicator, especially when it comes to our children’s needs and development, and has always been open to feedback and discussion. She brings a wealth of experience raising children – not only her own now-adult sons but also multiple families she’s worked with long-term in the New York City area over the last two decades.
In terms of the more tactical parts of the job, Yanie is incredibly reliable and always on time. Her hours with us tended to be mostly stable week to week, but she was also willing to come early or stay later if needed and if her schedule allows. She is proactive and organized. She is quite outgoing and built a community with many other nannies and children, so it felt like my kids from a very early age had great social exposure and friendships. She was always supportive of plans we made for the kids (i.e. music and gym classes), but also independently set up playdates, trips to the zoo, library, and playgrounds, etc. to ensure our children were stimulated and challenged, and was resourceful as well with crafts and activities as my son grew older. She went above and beyond to help around the house if our children are napping and helped keep our lives overall (not just the kids!) running smoothly.
We are incredibly grateful for the time Yanie spent with our family, and want to support her to find a role with a great family. Her preference would be to join a family with 1 newborn, but she would be open to a newborn and an older sibling.
I cannot recommend Shantel highly enough. From the very beginning, she cared for our baby with such genuine love and attentiveness that it truly felt like she became part of our family. She was with my family for 10 weeks, 6 days a week. As a night nurse, she brought not only deep knowledge and professionalism, but also warmth, kindness, and a wonderful sense of humor that made those early, often exhausting weeks so much easier.
Shantel is incredibly trustworthy and dependable. You can rest easy knowing your baby is in the best possible hands. She has an intuitive understanding of newborn care and sleep routines, and thanks to her guidance and consistency, our baby was sleeping through the night by just 7 weeks old. Even now, at 20 months, those healthy sleep habits she helped establish are still going strong.
Beyond her expertise, what sets Shantel apart is the way she cares for the entire family. She brought calm, reassurance, and positivity into our home every single day. Her presence was a gift during such a special (and sometimes overwhelming) time.
Any family would be beyond lucky to have Shantel as a night nurse or nanny. She is truly exceptional in every way.
Standout things about Domsy:
1. She immediately made our daughter feel comfortable.
2. Ensured our daughter was engaged intellectually and socially everyday! Coordinated play dates, outings to the park and library, story times…
3. She worked around our schedule and habits from day 1
4. Frequently asked for feedback about herself to make sure we were happy.
5. She created food recipes to our fussy daughter and constantly helped around the house , without asking
She’s is a mother of two teen children ages 17 and 14, a certified in New born Care Specialist and CPR trained. She has over 10 years of experience with newborn, toddlers and twins and multiple children. She’s creates firm boundaries and structure for the children in her care while showering them with tones of love.
Any family she joins next would be very lucky to have her as part of their team.
Electra is loving, calm and patient. She enjoys taking children outside and to library classes to interact with other kids. Our son, who can be very serious, always smiles when she comes in the morning and loves her dearly. He can be stubborn about eating (and other things), yet Electra is more determined. She’ll make sure he eats properly while being kind and attentive. She does laundry regularly and is extremely tidy. She doesn’t work Sundays because she goes to church, but if you were to give her enough notice, she would be able to cover a Sunday or two throughout the year.
I recently had the pleasure of working with an exceptional nanny, and although I had hoped she would remain with our family long‑term, an unexpected change in our circumstances means we are unable to continue. I want to ensure another family has the opportunity to benefit from her care.
Jill is truly outstanding. She worked with us for about a month, and during that time she became a calming, joyful, and reliable presence in our home. From her very first interaction with my 6 month old he lit up with smiles — her warmth and natural connection with children are immediately evident.
With over 25 years of experience, Jill brings deep knowledge, professionalism, and a nurturing approach to her work. Before joining our family, she spent seven years with one family and six years with another, demonstrating her commitment and the trust she builds over time.
Any family would be fortunate to have her. If you’d like more information, I’m happy to share.
Because we moved from NYC, we had to part ways with our phenomenal nanny after 11 wonderful years together. From the moment Annie met our son at just four months old, we knew he would always be safe, loved, and in exceptional hands.
Over the years, teachers, parents, neighbors, and friends consistently commented on how special Annie is and how fortunate we were to have her caring for our son.
We were the third family Annie worked with, and she has a long-standing history of staying with families for many years. She is excellent with children of all ages and incredibly reliable—never once late and rarely, if ever, taking a sick day. We could always depend on her to manage daily routines seamlessly, from appointments to activities, ensuring our son was safe, prepared, and well cared for at all times. As he grew, she continued to support his busy schedule, getting him to and from school, sports, and appointments with ease.
What truly sets Annie apart is the level of attention and care she brings each day. She was always fully engaged—never distracted—and spent her time playing, doing arts and crafts, and creating meaningful experiences with our son. We still have many of the projects they made together, and to this day, he adores her (he has always called her “My Annie”).
From infancy through adolescence, Annie supported every stage of his development. She prepared homemade meals when he was young and continued to cook thoughtful, healthy meals and snacks as he grew. Each evening, we returned home to a happy, well-cared-for child who had been fed, bathed, and fully engaged throughout the day.
She also made time off from school incredibly special—planning outings to museums, parks, and other enriching activities. Her ability to balance fun, learning, and social interaction was exceptional.
Beyond her caregiving, Annie is deeply loyal and became a trusted partner in our parenting journey. Her instincts, experience, and genuine love for children made a lasting impact on our son and our family. Many of the qualities he has today are a reflection of her influence.
While it was incredibly difficult to say goodbye, we are excited for the next family who will benefit from Annie’s care. She is truly one of a kind.
We often say we “won the lottery” when Annie came into our lives—and what she gave to our son is truly priceless.
NOTE: she will do laundry and cook for the children.
It is with both gratitude and sadness that I write this reference for our incredible nanny, who has been with our family for the past 2.5 years. She has been such a meaningful part of our lives, and it is only due to my recent job relocation to another state that we are parting ways.
From the very beginning, she brought warmth, reliability, and genuine care into our home. She consistently created a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for our children, always going above and beyond to support their growth and happiness. Her patience, attentiveness, and ability to connect with them on their level made a lasting impact not just on them, but on our entire family.
She always made sure the kids had meaningful interaction throughout the day by organizing playdates and taking them to classes, keeping them active, social, and engaged.
She is dependable, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. Whether it was managing daily routines, planning activities, or simply being a steady and comforting presence, she handled everything with professionalism and heart. I always felt completely at ease knowing my children were in her care.
Beyond her role as a caregiver, she truly became part of our family. Her kindness, positivity, and strong work ethic are qualities that any household would be lucky to have.
I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking a trustworthy, dedicated, and loving nanny. She will be deeply missed, and any family would be fortunate to have her.
Please feel free to reach out at 929-232-4297 if you have any questions.
We were lucky to meet Sharon in the summer of 2016 when I was about to have my second child. We had been sending our oldest to a daycare but realized that would not work well with two children — it wasn’t easy with one! Sharon made our lives infinitely easier and was wonderful with our kids. She truly loved spending time with them and they loved spending time with her. She kept them very active — taking them to parks and libraries and organizing playdates with other nannies and kids in the neighborhood. She was always on time and willing to stay late (even last minute when my job required) or come on weekends. Sharon stopped working for us in 2020 and she then worked for two other families and now is working for the MTA but would like to return to nannying and is looking for a new family. Please feel free to reach out!
Exceptional nanny available for a full time position of 40hrs a week preferably to take care of another newborn child.
Our wonderful French nanny and daughter’s best friend is now available to make the days of a new lucky and loving families easier!
Didi was a dream come true for our family and it’s a great pleasure to highly recommend her to her new loving families as we moving out of town.
She has 15 years of experience working with children of all ages and she’s incredibly patient, loving and amazing with our baby.
She has been taking care of her since she was 3 months old and she’s 4 years old now.
Hiring Didi in 2022 was the best decision ever made for our family. She’s energetic, attentive, kind, responsible and extremely reliable when it comes to keeping our girl healthy and safe.
For 4 years, our girl has been well-fed, carefully bathed, toilet trained, nap trained, entertained, loved, cuddled everyday. We always felt completely secure with leaving our daughter, our first and only child in her care.
Didi has made our girl’s life full and fun by engaging with her in multiple activities and by organizing play dates, story times, music times, painting, etc. with the other nannies of the neighborhood in order to encourage her to speak, play and interact socially with others. The results on our girl is amazing. Thanks to her special skills and approach to caring for our girl, she’s smart, curious, happy, confident, well mannered and totally fluent in both French and English.
She cooked the most delicious healthy meals for our daughter and our apartment was always spotless as she light cleaned after her.
Didi has a great sense of communication, she respected our personal parenting style but was also confident enough to independently make day to day decisions regarding our girl. We deeply value her extraordinary calm and patience with our child. Our girl absolutely love her, she runs every morning at the door to welcome Didi with excitement, joy and hugs.
She has been such a great contribution to our family and we’re so grateful for all the ways she’s made our life easier!
Please, take note that Didi is fully vaccinated and covid cautious and that she is willing to help as soon as possible.
Feel free to reach out to her first, directly through her phone number 347-907-7639.
I’m also standing ready to sing more her praises. Contact me for further information preferably at gigilene10@gmail.com
