Nanny shares, the best of both worlds

The Sylvester Family
We chose a nanny share because it allowed us to make sure that our child was getting great, individual attention from a person that we could trust while helping us to manage costs. We couldn't afford to have one nanny, and found another family that was in a similar situation and shared our values.

A little bit about me

Hi my name is Lily! I am a mother of 3 beautiful children. Two of them are now parents and I have a teenager daughter. I am a professional nanny with more than 25 years of experience. I’ve been lucky to have found amazing families through all the years. After 10 years of working with a loving private family I am now back on the market. I am looking for a loving, respectful family who will appreciate me. I provide a safe, loving and calm environment for the children. I love attending music class, hosting playdates and making sure children learn socialization since that’s an important part of their child development for growth. I love sharing my love, my knowledge and I can’t wait to start a new journey. I can’t wait to meet a new family !

"Lily is the absolute best! She is caring and kind in addition to being trustworthy, dependable, and responsible. She is wonderfully patient with kids and engages with them fully. In addition, in our case, due to my son's special medical needs, her duties included administering medicine through a gastrostomy tube; feeding using a gastrostomy tube; helping to train my child to eat by mouth; overseeing my son’s use of supplemental oxygen; and attending physical therapy, occupational therapy, and feeding therapy sessions and consulting with these therapists to help him meet his goals. Lily was a wonderful and trusted partner to work with as we navigated my son's special needs."

"Tania has worked with our family for 2 years and has been wonderful. She has watched both of my daughters (4 months old and 2.5 years old) and is great with newborns and toddlers. She prepares healthy food, keeps them on a consistent nap schedule and has helped with sleep training, helped me potty train starting at 3 months old (my oldest has been fully potty trained since she turned 1 - many thanks to Tania!), and spends tons of time outside and doing creative activities with them. They never watch screens which I love and she also speaks spanish so my 2 year old now knows both spanish and english. She is constantly interacting with them and never on her phone which was also very important to me. When my girls are napping, Tania would do the laundry, dishes, and tidy up around the house. She would help with anything I asked her to help with. Tania is so kind and fun and I would highly recommend working with her!"
