MommybitesNY

I am happy to recommend Ruth highly for a nanny position with any family looking for a true partner and guiding light in raising their children. Ruth joined our family when my son was 8 months old, in March 2016 and once my daughter was born in 2017, Ruth cared for both my children. As first-time parents, we looked up to Ruth for advice and wisdom and she really delivered. Day to day she was a warm and knowledgeable caretaker to our children, a great teacher and an astute observer. Indeed, a trusted partner to us!
Ruth has over a decade and a half of experience caring for babies and toddlers, and is certified in First Aid, CPR, and as a baby nurse. She is also an early childhood educator. She is very dependable and professional, with a calm and loving demeanor. She is a good communicator and keeps parents informed of their child’s daily activities through text, photos and videos. Ruth works well with parents and can take the lead when necessary. She is skilled in arts and crafts, coloring, reading, singing and other age-appropriate activities. She likes to plan playdates at playgrounds, libraries, museums and other areas of interest to promote child-friendly development. She is proactive and can suggest activities but is also happy to follow the parents’ lead.
For the past few years, she has cared for one of our good friends’ daughters until she went to school and then for a baby starting when he was 3 months old. Ruth is now looking for her next family. She still stays with my kids occasionally and we have been having play dates together. She’s absolutely great and I love to see in person how invested she is in the kids she cares for. Ruth has a large network of nanny friends and even parents, that she organizes play dates with, so our kids have made stable friendships. Many parents have commented to me about how great Ruth is. It has indeed been an amazing comfort to have Ruth as part of the family, especially as a first time mom – her experience and advice were invaluable and I felt at ease knowing that she was in charge of my children and that I could fully trust her.
Ruth is seeking a full-time position based on a 40-50-hour work week, Monday through Friday.

I am the mother of Alex and Oliver, and I am writing to highly recommend Araceli Callejas as a nanny and caregiver.

Araceli cared for my son Alex from the time he was 13 months old until he was almost five years old, and she cared for my younger son, Oliver, from two months old until he was three years old. During these important early years, she became an essential part of our family.

Araceli is extremely responsible, trustworthy, and loving. The safety of my children was always her top priority. She maintained consistent routines for feeding and nap times, ensured proper hygiene, and was very attentive to their needs at every stage of development. She is patient, calm, organized, and truly dedicated to the well-being of children.

Her English is basic, but she communicates clearly and always ensures that instructions and routines are well understood. She has completed a CPR course for all ages, the Childcare Certification Training at LaGuardia Community College, and has received all the vaccinations required to care for newborns (Tdap, Flu, COVID-19).

My sons were always happy, safe, and very well cared for in her presence. I had complete peace of mind knowing they were with her.

Unfortunately, our family is moving to California, which is the only reason we are no longer working together. If we were staying, we would absolutely continue working with her without hesitation.

Araceli is currently seeking a position with a family who has a newborn up to one year old, an age group in which she has extensive experience and great sensitivity.

I wholeheartedly recommend Araceli to any family looking for a dedicated, loving, and professional nanny. Any family would be fortunate to have her!

Sincerely,
Laura Maria

RECOMMENDATION:

Kristie has been an integral part of our family for over four years. During that time, she has proven to be a reliable, warm, and trusted caregiver for our two children.

Kristie joined our family when our daughter was almost one year old. Kristie provided full service care from day one — changing diapers, naps, food prep and feeding, attending various baby classes and scheduling play dates. Kristie was instrumental in helping our daughter develop into the fun, creative, and thoughtful five year old she is today. Kristie’s calm demeanor has also been an important, positive, and stable influence on our son, whom she has cared for together with our daughter everyday.

Both of our children are currently in school until 2:30pm. Kristie prepares snacks for them and organizes their afterschool needs (sports equipment, mostly) before school pickup. From there, Kristie shuttles them to their after school activities before heading home for homework, bath and cool down play before dinner. During summer vacation or days when there is no school, Kristie often takes our children on excursions to Coney Island, the Brooklyn Acquarium, and both the Central Park and Prospect Park Zoos, traveling safely together on the bus or subway each way. Kristie also does the children’s laundry each week.
Our children developed a special bond with Kristie over the years and we are sad to part ways with her. We know, however, that our loss will be another family’s gain.

We were very fortunate to have Kristie as part of our lives and confidently recommend her to any family looking for a dedicated and trustworthy caregiver.

Lisa is an exceptional Nanny. She is patient, kind, punctual and very knowledgeable. Lisa started with us when our first son was 6 months. She was the first Nanny we interviewed and we were very impressed with her. Atom loved her. She made our lives very easy. She had a group of Nanny friends that she would meet up with and they plan playdates trips to the city, aquarium etc. With her everything was a smooth transition from breast feeding to formula to introducing solids. I would highly recommend Lisa if you are looking for someone to make your life less complicated. Feel free to reach out to me for any further information you need to know about Lisa.

Our beloved nanny of 11 years is seeking her next family!
Rhonda has been an absolute gift to our family and to many families in our neighborhood. With over 25 years of childcare experience, she is a highly skilled and deeply compassionate nanny, Newborn Care Specialist, and Certified Nursing Assistant. She is also First Aid, CPR, and AED certified, giving any parent complete peace of mind.
Rhonda helped raise our two children, and we truly owe her more than words can express. She is kind-hearted, reliable, flexible, loyal, generous, trustworthy, responsible, patient, calm, and incredibly loving. She consistently goes above and beyond the call of duty, and I always felt completely confident knowing my children were in her safe, capable, and nurturing hands.
Rhonda has a naturally positive attitude and warm personality, which allows her to build strong relationships with children, parents, and other caregivers alike. She is well-loved by kids and adults of all ages and is respected throughout our community.
She is ideally seeking a full-time, or part-time long-term position, preferably with newborns or babies, where she can grow alongside a family and become an integral part of their lives. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her.
If you are interested in speaking with Rhonda directly, she can be reached by call or text at (917) 200-7789. I would also be more than happy to speak with anyone personally as a reference.
Thank you!

I highly recommend my former nanny Lois as a caregiver. Lois took care of my daughter from when she was 3 months old until she started kindergarten. Lois is unique because she was wonderful with my daughter at all those ages – as an infant who mostly needed lots of affection and a schedule followed, through the toddler and preschool days where they are constantly exploring and on the go, and through school age when they develop new interests. She truly loves taking care of kids and this comes out in every interaction. She was also an excellent partner in childcare tasks, keep toys and clothes organized, preparing healthy and delicious food, and helping me find new classes and activities for my child. My daughter still loves Lois – she babysits or comes over for dinner every couple of months and my daughter is always thrilled to see her. She’s a true gem!

Pearl is an absolutely incredible nanny for whom I have felt very grateful. Pearl helped me take care of my children for over 13 years. She started working with us when my older daughter was 3 and I was 8 months pregnant with my youngest, and brought her patient kind approach to each phase of my children’s lives. She is very experienced, smart, and creative. Pearl has a real knack for calming babies, engaging young children in creative art projects, and being a trusted shoulder to lean on for tweens/teens.  For working parents, she can help manage your home and always keeps kids areas well organized and the kitchen clean (my kids loved her cooking).  She is a native English speaker, U.S. Citizen, and incredibly reliable. There has always been an open line of communication between us. I truly cannot recommend her enough.

Hi, posting a recommendation for my former nanny, Allie, who is available to work with a new family.

Allie was with us for over 2.5 years and key to our sanity as working parents during the hight of the pandemic. Her main qualities are that she is very trustworthy and patient. We also appreciated her flexibility to come in early or stay late whenever we asked.

Allie is ideally looking for a family in Brooklyn or Manhattan. She has experience with all ages ranging from newborns to older children.

Hello moms,

I hope you are all doing well. I’m reaching out in hopes of finding a wonderful new family for our amazing nanny Triph. She has been with our family for over 20 years, since my youngest daughter was born, taking care of everything from school pick-ups and drop-offs to cooking, helping with homework, cleaning, and all the little things in between.

Her punctuality, loving nature, extreme patience, and overall thoughtfulness have made her an invaluable part of our daily lives. In addition to working with us, she has been with another family for over 6 years.

She has become part of our family, and we are keen to find another loving home where she can continue to share her warmth and dedication. Please reach out if you or anyone you know might be interested in welcoming this wonderful nanny into your lives. You can reach me at callie.aboaf@gmail.com, 646-599-5736. Or contact Triph directly at fofonia@hotmail.com or 917-474-8431.  

Thank you so much!

We’re truly sad to be making a change and are very happy to recommend our wonderful nanny Sandra, who has been with our family for the past 6 months caring for our two little ones (6–12 months and 2.5–3). She’s only available due to a change in our childcare needs — and any family will be incredibly lucky to have her.

Why we adore her:
• Calm, kind, and completely present with the kids (never on her phone)
• Stepped into a nanny transition with so much grace and a consistently positive attitude
• Handled full daily routines effortlessly: school drop-off/pick-up, meals, baths, kids’ laundry
• Amazing at keeping the kids engaged — constantly arranging playdates and helping our kids make so many friends
• Incredibly supportive of working parents — flexible, stays late, helps with events and date nights
• Also wonderful with our 30 lb goldendoodle

Sandra is looking for full time roll (40 hours) with a long-term family — all of her prior families have been lucky to have her for 4+ years. She would be a great fit for any family, and particularly loves toddlers. She lives in Astoria, is ideally seeking a role on the UES or Midtown East, and is available ASAP. This truly feels like our loss and another family’s gain — happy to chat with anyone interested.

Theresa brings 19 plus years of experience with her. She is a passionate, loving, nurturing, patient, energetic, trustworthy and responsible. She genuinely cares for your child(ren)’s well-being. She is reliable and can be counted on to be consistent and responsible. She creates a fun, balanced environment that will keep your child(ren) learning and happy. She is skilled and professional. Theresa is gentle and observant. You won’t regret recruiting her to be part of you support system to nurture your child(ren). Any family will be happy to have her. We certainly were!

Very happy to recommend our most recent nanny, Keisha Harry. We have had a few nannies over the years and she has been THE BEST by far. She is extremely reliable and flexible with scheduling. She will take direction and ask before doing something out of the box.

Over the last year, she has taken our 2 kids to and from school- via subway and bus-, to and from the bus to summer camp, stayed home with them when they were sick, taken them on numerous playdates, and accompanied them to numerous appointments and extracurricular activities.

Our kids are 4 and 8 and we no longer need 40 hrs of childcare. I can’t emphasize enough that Keisha is incredibly reliable and very accommodating to crazy work schedules, etc. I know she will be a great fit to another busy fam, or a new start with a baby/toddler. Happy to answer any questions. She is open to new opportunities and travels to Manhattan from Brooklyn.

Our wonderful, loving, conscientious, reliable, and tireless former nanny is seeking a new position. Letesia provided excellent care to our two sons, now age 22 and 26. She was officially employed as a household employee, providing child care and light housekeeping for our family for more than 18 years.

Once our kids were grown and flown, we were unable to justify the need for full-time household help. We hope another family can be cared for as we were. Letesia is reliable, hard-working, capable, and beyond trustworthy. When the boys were small, she read aloud to them, sang to them, held them, and prepared very healthy snacks. She made sure they got plenty of active time outdoors and engaged in educational games with them at home. She kept them clean, healthy, and safe. She was incredibly reliable, taking them to afterschool classes, appointments, and playdates. While the boys were in school, Letesia kept our house in impeccable shape, clean, and well-organized.

We recommend Letesia with the highest, highest praise.

Letesia can be contacted directly at: 646-220-7026. I can be reached via cell at 917-576-0251 or via email at samgarbers@hotmail.com.

Hi there! I’d love to recommend our longtime babysitter / nanny Cheryl Noel to anyone looking for full-time help. Cheryl has been a wonderful and indispensable fixture in our family’s life throughout our time in NYC, dating from the early months of our first child Guinny’s life all the way through the pre-K years of our 2nd child, Milly.

That’s ten years of being with our family and being an indispensable part of raising our kids. Now though, we’ve moved on from NYC and Cheryl is available to help her next family. We miss her like crazy!

Cheryl is a lovely, caring presence who is a natural with babies, infants, toddlers, pre-K into grade school and beyond. Our kids loved spending time with Cheryl, and found her to be a consistently engaging, warm, fun and dependable presence. Cheryl went the extra mile to help us, taking the kids from school to their various activities, and doing everything including playing with them, bathing them, cooking for them, and putting them to bed. She also didn’t hesitate to come on weekends if we needed her to babysit. She always communicated effectively with us and truly became ‘one of the family’. You name it, she did it … and now that we’re not there, we really, truly miss her help, her camaraderie, and her expertise.

I guarantee you will find Cheryl to be a fantastic nanny for your kids. Please feel free to get in touch with me for any further questions you may have. Thanks so much for reading!

Liza is a professional nanny who has tons of experience with newborns and toddlers. She cared for my 2.5‑year‑old and consistently demonstrated punctuality (often arriving early), reliability, and a warm, loving manner. She built a very strong, trusting relationship with my daughter and kept her engaged and active throughout the day with regular outings to museums, the library, playgrounds, and playdates. She also picked up my daughter from preschool, always following the schedule and never being late.

In addition to great childcare, Liza was very helpful around the house—maintaining a clean apartment, doing the laundry, vacuuming, and tidying my daughter’s room as well as the kitchen before leaving. She prepared lunch, cooked dinner, and bathed my daughter every day before leaving for the night.

Liza is looking for a full-time position in Manhattan or Brooklyn.

Aurelie has been our 19 month old toddler twins’ part time nanny since they were newborns. Without hesitation I highly recommend Aurelie as a nanny to any family. From the very first meeting, she made our family feel completely comfortable and at ease. A keen observer, Aurelie quickly picked up on our twins’ routines and how we managed our home environment. From how we organized the toys to understanding the kids needs, Aurelie is very proactive and often does things before we even think to ask her.

Taking care twins can be a handful, and never once in the past couple years have we seen her overwhelmed by our kids. She even takes them out to the park and playgrounds by herself, which is no small task. One of many things that we appreciate about Aurelie is her dedication to being fully present. She doesn’t use her phone in front of the kids and instead fills their days with songs, reading, and creative play. She quickly became a trusted friend to the children, making each day joyful and enriching. The kids are often reluctant to see her go at the end of the day.

Additionally, Aurelie speaks French, which has been a wonderful bonus for our children’s language exposure. Her patience, energy, and genuine affection makes her an incomparable nanny. Any family would be fortunate to welcome Aurelie into their home. I wholeheartedly recommend her without reservation.

Aurelie is currently looking for a part-time position with a family that needs mornings to early afternoons, Monday through Friday. She is available anytime from 8:00am-1:30pm.

We’re happy to speak with you if you’d like any more information.

Sincerely,
Ijin and Jae

A highly experienced, nurturing nanny is available and seeking a long-term family. She is attentive, patient, and genuinely loves working with children. She is dependable, safety-focused, and brings warmth and positivity into the home.

She has been an invaluable support to our family, and we would enthusiastically recommend her to any family looking for excellent childcare.

Our beloved nanny, Djeneba, is available and looking for her new family!

We are moving to the suburbs and are heartbroken to be leaving Djeneba behind. She has been with us since our son was 6 months old (he’s now 2.5 years old) and seamlessly welcomed our second baby into the fold. I truly wish we could bring her with us – she has become family and has been such an incredible presence in our children’s lives.

Djeneba is looking for full-time (or close to full-time) work starting February 2026 (possibly earlier if the right opportunity comes along). She’s based in Manhattan/Brooklyn – 14 years of nanny experience, mostly with infants and toddlers – native French speaker (our son has picked up so much French!) – warm, patient, and truly loves children – proactive and reliable – experienced caring for multiple children.

She’s the kind of nanny who anticipates needs before you even ask, keeps the kids engaged and happy, and becomes part of your family. We would love for her to find another wonderful family who will appreciate her as much as we do.

I’m so happy to recommend Carlin, who was an incredible part of our family for 8 years. She started with us when my son was just 1 year old and also helped care for my older daughter, who was 6 at the time. Through every stage—toddler, preschool, and elementary—Carlin was dependable, loving, and deeply committed to our kids.

Carlin was always on time, incredibly reliable, and stayed with us all the way through the pandemic, which speaks volumes about her dedication and character. She is warm, social, and truly builds community—she introduced us to many wonderful nanny and child friends who are still part of our lives today.

She knows the village and downtown area of Manhattan extremely well and is always finding fun, age-appropriate outings, classes, playgrounds, and activities. Whether it’s toddler adventures, preschool programs, or elementary-age enrichment, Carlin is proactive, engaged, and genuinely loves what she does. Our kids are now in middle school and high school, but my husband and I want to help make sure she finds another great family that she can care for and love over many years

I know she’s ideally looking for a family with a newborn or toddler and a full-time position in the city – either Manhattan or Brooklyn. She is someone any family could trust completely with their children. Happy to share more or make an introduction—please feel free to reach out!
