Michelle is a wonderful nanny to my 4 year old daughter. She has been with us since my daughter was 1, we are relocating out of state unfortunately Michelle is unable to join us. Michelle has over 20 years of experience and is loving and caring. She has been a rock to our small family, the next family is lucky to have her. We will miss her dearly.
Our nanny Triph is looking for work with newborn to elementary school-aged kids starting in August. Triph has been working with us for 22 years. She is extremely reliable, always shows up on time, and managed my three children all by herself.
Over the years, we have gotten to know Triph very well. She goes beyond her job description. Triph truly cares for my children and enjoys spending time with them. For years I have been coming home to them all around the dinner table laughing. Triph is a kind person who loves to make friends with other kids and their nannies and organize trips around the city.
Triph has also been working with another family part time for over six years, and she takes care of everything from school pick-ups and drop-offs to cooking, helping with homework, and all the little things in between. This family shared that Triph’s “punctuality, loving nature, extreme patience, and overall thoughtfulness have made her an invaluable part of our daily lives.”
I provide my highest recommendation for Jenny Joseph, our exceptional caregiver for 14 years. She started when my first son was born and hasn’t missed a single day of work. Jenny demonstrates remarkable dedication, reliability, and genuine love for children. She creates nurturing, safe environments essential to children’s development. She possesses excellent judgment, maintains clear communication, and handles situations with calm professionalism. Beyond childcare, meal prep, and household management, she brings warmth, creativity, and natural ability to connect with all ages. She became beloved by our children’s elementary school parents and administration. Her departure is solely due to our children aging out of full-time care (now entering middle/high school). She worked 10+ years with her prior family. She can start immediately as our children are in summer camp. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her.
Sad to part ways with our wonderful Nanny, Beni. She’s been with us ~2 yrs and has 10+ yrs nanny experience, confidently cares for our 2 kids. Her bond with our toddler grew quickly, always shared stories w us. She gets excited about our daughter’s new skills, and taught our son to be more independent – taking off shoes & jacket, cleanup, etc. – while juggling our fussy baby daughter. Both kids are picky eaters, but Beni always makes sure they’re well-fed, improvising often. Suggests things to help them develop – puzzles, crafts, etc., gets them to the park, facilitates play dates, and does tons of arts/crafts projects at home.
Strikes a perfect balance between fun/playful, a friend, yet a guide & authority figure. Always calm with our toddler during a meltdown – while taking care of the baby too. Beni is fastidious, thorough, schedule-oriented, and makes sure there is little ambiguity in the day’s plan – and most importantly, our kids love her. Any family will be lucky to have her!
Our family is very sad to say goodbye to Yenny, our wonderful nanny, but we no longer need full-time coverage due to our family’s relocation. Yenny cared for our 1.5-year-old daughter and 3.5-year-old son for the past six months, and she has been a gentle, caring presence in our home. She is originally from Peru and was delighted to patiently teach our kids Spanish, with remarkable success. She was diligent about all our children’s needs: preparing and serving nutritious meals, playing with them in the park, reading to them, doing evening bathtime, tidying up, doing their laundry, and, on occasion when needed, putting them to bed. She is active, friendly, flexible, and easy to be around. She never relied on screen time to keep our children occupied, even on the busiest of days. Yenny is deeply caring — she went out of her way to give extra attention to our elderly dog! We hope Yenny finds a friendly, loving family who will appreciate her as much as we do and have.
Our nanny Ann is looking for a new job starting in September. She has been with us since 2018 and cared for both of my sons.
She is warm, responsible, flexible and a great communicator, I honestly don’t know what we would have done without her all these years. We are devastated that it’s time to move on! Our sons adores her and at every stage, she’s known how to manage them- she was a calming presence when they were infants and became their play buddy when they became toddlers.
Her preference is to work with newborns/infants, hopefully growing with the family and she is only looking for full-time roles.
Experienced, reliable, trustworthy, and hard-working nanny available full time!
Taira joined us when my daughter was a newborn. The level of love and care Taira brought to my daughter was a true gift. As our daughter grew, so did Taira’s love and care.
Taira always made sure she was well dressed (and ironed!), well fed, well engaged and hitting all of her milestones. She always said our daughter was her granddaughter and we felt that! As first time parents away at work for long hours, we were so very lucky to know our baby was laughing, smiling and learning in such warm and loving hands.
Never late, always dependable, Taira is a gem and takes great pride in what she does which showed every day.
Our family’s needs have changed so Taira is looking to join a new family in July. But she will always remain a part of our lives.
Please reach out to me for any questions. We want to ensure Taira finds a family as special as she is.

We love working with Fely! She is loving, thoughtful, patient, and has taken excellent care of our two kids, ages 4 and 2. She keeps them engaged with lots of creative art activities, play dates, and outings. She has an incredible network of nannies; our kids get tons of social interaction through her and we have made friends too!
With 15 years of experience, Fely is comfortable with all stages. She has helped us potty train, transition naps, and address difficult behaviors. She makes healthy lunches and snacks and ensures our kids eat and sleep on schedule. She cleans up after their play, washes their dishes, and folds their laundry. She goes above and beyond by washing our dishes and tidying up.
Fely is a native Spanish speaker and speaks primarily Spanish to the kids, but her English is excellent too. We have had easy communication with her. Her hours are somewhat flexible, but she is most available between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM. She is available for date nights too.
Jess has been a wonderful addition to our family since February of 2025, looking after our two boys ages 2 and 5. She brings a kind, calm, caring, and sweet energy to work each day. She is dependable, reliable, and extremely responsible with our boys, and is able to work with their varying needs, preferences, and schedules. She has developed a particularly loving and warm bond with our 2 year old, whom she primarily cares for each day.
Due to our relocation outside of NYC, we are hoping to find Jess a future longterm family in Manhattan or Brooklyn. She will be available to work with a new family in late August or early September, and is hoping to care for one or two children. You can reach her directly at (347) 938-6886, and I am happy to also serve as a reference. We have been very glad and lucky to have her, and hope to share her with a new family soon!
Katarina has been with us since the birth of our daughter in early COVID. Our son was 2. From day one, Katarina demonstrated her skill in managing the needs of two young children amid difficult, shifting circumstances with calm, confidence, and care. She accommodated every request and has been a rock-solid presence in our lives ever since. She brings many years of nannying experience and it shows. She has a strong grasp of development across ages and approaches her work with pride and a can-do attitude. She is very flexible to cover weekends when out of town, date nights, or unexpected changes. She has a genuine love for our children that shines through. She noticed our son’s love for math and bought the next few years of math workbooks; she fosters our daughter’s love for art by drawing alongside her. She plans visits to the zoo or small hikes and was great with our family dog. We are sad to say goodbye after 4.5 years, but with both kids in elementary school, our needs have changed.
Kay is a caring, loving, joyful, compassionate caregiver. I could not have dreamt up someone better for my children to grow up with. They now 9 and 7 are thriving socially and in school and I know Kay has been a huge part of this.
Kay is extremely professional and reliable and takes pride in her role as a caregiver. She has been five minutes early every weekday for nine years. My husband and I both travel for work and she is flexible with coming early and staying late when we need her. She is also great with dogs!
Kay was resourceful with finding activities for the kids when they were younger and setting up playdates. They are still friends with many of these neighborhood kids that they met through Kay when they were babies. Now that they have more organized activities she will shuttle them wherever they need to go.
Kay will stay with us until she finds the right fit for her next family and will be flexible to interview.
Truly a gem for any family!
Our nanny Silvia will become available this summer (mid-July) and is looking for a full-time job. Silvia has worked as our daughter’s full time nanny for the past year and a half. Silvia is kind-hearted, patient and experienced. She is trustworthy and shows up on time. She arranges playdates for our daughter and transports her to and from her various activities. Silvia sends us texts and photos during the day so that we know our daughter has arrived safely at her activities. Our daughter is now 7 years old and has matured significantly over the time Silvia has been with us. Our daughter is much more independent and knows how to respect and follow rules. Silvia has completed child/infant CPR class and completed nanny training workshops at Cornell University Workers Institute.
We’re very sad to be wrapping up our time with Rhonda, who has been with our family since our now 2-year-old was 4 months old. She’s also cared for our baby son since birth. Rhonda is loving, consistent, and playful, with nearly 20 years of nannying experience—an ideal fit for a family with a newborn.
She’s incredibly reliable, intuitive with kids, and happy to pitch in for evening or weekend shifts. She keeps their spaces tidy, handles laundry, meals, and dishes, and brings joy to each day through reading, songs, and play.
Our kids adore her. Our daughter runs to greet her each morning shouting her name. We credit Rhonda with teaching her the ABCs, colors, and more. She prioritizes safety, and we trust her completely.
Rhonda is available in late July and prefers to work in Brooklyn. Please reach out if you’d like to connect.
Sabina has been with us for 2.5 years taking care of my daughters (2.5 and 4). Sabina will be available M-F until 12:30 and is looking for around 20 hours a week. She currently is with us from 7:30-12:30 Mon-Thurs. I do not have enough great things to say about Sabina, she can do it all. During school she walked to school 1 mile everyday, does laundry and prep meals. On the days they do not have school she is making play dates, going to playgrounds, museums, zoo, library, etc. Sabina has never been late and rarely takes any time off, planning most of her vacations while we are also away. We get stopped all the time to say how amazing “Bina” is. I completely trust her with our children, knowing they will be safe, loved and having the best time. You can trust that she will not only not be on her phone while she is with your kids, but will be running around with them playing on the playground. We are sad to let her go, but want to find her the best family.
WONDERFUL nanny available! Our son absolutely loves Dina! There is a special affection between them. We have worked with her for the past 1 yr 9 mo. but sadly, our needs have changed with our youngest heading into a full day of preschool. We are invested in helping Dina find her next family!
Dina has a calm, steady way about her; always patient, gentle, and warm. I have never once seen Dina lose her cool. She is kind, caring and quick to smile. She is expert at getting our 3 yr old out of the apt., often taking him on full day adventures to playgrounds, libraries, and playdates.
She is a native Spanish speaker and my kids have become fluent with her help.
Beyond taking excellent care of our kids, Dina is endlessly helpful in making sure our home is clean and tidy, doing laundry, preparing healthy meals etc. She is one of the hardest working people I know. She always finds a way to bring order and happiness to our home. We are so grateful to her!
We’re writing to recommend our beloved nanny Stacy after 6 wonderful years together.
Stacy is reliable (she is the most prompt person you will ever meet, she gets places 30 min early to ensure she’s never late); loving & nurturing (our son adores her, as do all the other children they play with); organized with a great network (Stacy created & led a playgroup when our son was younger, many of his best friends today came from that group); communicative (she sends daily updates and photos, keeping you in the loop without even needing to ask. I always know where they are & what they did); proactive & engaging (she plans fun outings & takes adventures throughout NYC)
Stacy lives in Brooklyn & is seeking a full-time position preferably in or around Park Slope. Hiring Stacy was one of the best decisions we have made as parents; the flexibility & stability she has added to our family has been invaluable.
Our wonderful former nanny, Yvonne Brissett, is looking for her next long-term family. Yvonne was a true partner to my husband and me in raising our child. She made it possible for us to balance demanding careers with parenting—giving us total peace of mind that our little one was safe, happy, and thriving.
From day one, Yvonne made our child her top priority. She became deeply attuned to their needs and encouraged independence, curiosity, and learning. She celebrated milestones, engaged in real (not baby talk) conversations, and created a joyful, loving environment.
Beyond her exceptional care, Yvonne was a joy to have in our home. She’s energetic, funny, and professional. She traveled with us frequently—both with our child and when we needed care while traveling solo.
A few additional highlights:
20+ years of experience as a career nanny, with a background in hospitality—she’s warm, polished, and communicative
Extremely reliable and punctual—critical for us with our long and often unpredictable work hours
Flexible and accommodating—always willing to stay late or adjust plans on short notice
Goes above and beyond on household tasks—handled all child-related chores and more (dishes, tidying, grocery runs, tracking supplies like diapers and wipes)
Development-focused—suggested toys and activities to support learning, read regularly with our child, and encouraged language development from an early stage
An excellent communicator with family and community—kept grandparents updated with photos and FaceTimes, and built friendly relationships with others in our daily life like our housekeeper and doormen
Yvonne is hoping to find a loving, long-term family. Please feel free to reach out to her directly—or I’m happy to answer any questions or chat further about our experience.
We no longer need full time help, so unfortunately are parting ways with our wonderful nanny, Hermi. She has worked with us for 3 months, but has quickly made an impression and easily got a handle on our 9 month old\’s routine and needs. She is so sweet and loving with our baby, she sings and dances, is energetic, engaging, cautious, and protective while out and about – you will never have to worry about your baby\’s safety while in her care. Our baby absolutely lights up when she arrives for the day and tries to follow her out the door when she leaves. I always hear them laughing and playing in the other room and it\’s been so sweet to see their bond grow, even in this short amount of time that she has worked with us. Hermi is great with babies, caring, and eager to please, and she always leaves our home neater than when she found it. She has handled everything from taking our daughter to classes and playdates, coaching me through starting solids, shopping for and making our daughter\’s food, doing our daughter\’s laundry, and alerting me to things that need attention. I would love to find her a great family to work with. She is based in Jersey City but commutes to us in Manhattan, so she is open to a variety of locations. Please reach out to me if you have any questions, or feel free to get in touch with her directly.
Since early September 2024, Crystal has been taking care of our two daughters who are 2 and 5. During the school year Crystal was with our 2 year old for most of the day but would also pick up our 5 year old after Pre-K. Although Crystal has been with us only a year, it feels like longer because she has become a part of our family. Crystal has a background in early childhood education and is a caring, responsible caregiver to our daughters. She takes our younger daughter on outings every day to places like children’s museums, story time at local libraries, neighborhood parks, and playgrounds. Crystal is always on time, rarely takes a day off, and is a trusted part of our family life.
