A little bit about me
I am currently studying Business & Education, combining my passion for leadership & development with my love for working with children. With over eight years of hands-on experience as a nanny, I’ve learned that caring for children goes far beyond supervision. It is about creating structure, stability, & a safe environment where they feel seen, heard, & supported.
I genuinely love being part of a child’s growth journey. Whether that means helping them reach developmental milestones, building confidence in schoolwork, encouraging independence, or simply creating meaningful everyday moments, I take pride in being someone they can rely on. I believe children thrive when they are guided with patience, consistency, & warmth.
My goal is not only to help children have fun, but to help shape positive experiences that contribute to their emotional, social, & academic growth. I hope to continue creating nurturing, safe environments where children can grow into confident, kind, & capable adults.

"Ashley has been such a steady and loving presence in my daughter’s life for the past five summers and on occasional weekends throughout the school year. She has always been incredibly flexible and reliable whenever we’ve needed her, which as a parent means more than I can explain.
She truly feels like part of our family. From the very beginning, it was clear that she genuinely cares, not just about supervising, but about being present and engaged. She keeps my daughter safe and structured, but also makes their time together fun and meaningful. They do crafts, play imaginative games, have little adventures, and share real conversations. My daughter absolutely lights up when she knows Ashley is coming.
The biggest thing for me is peace of mind. I completely trust her. She is patient, thoughtful, dependable, and mature beyond her years. I never have to worry when my daughter is with her. Any family would be so lucky to have someone as caring and reliable as Ashley caring for their child"

"Hey! I’m Eva and I worked with Seli at a summer camp through SYEP. She was honestly amazing to work with super dependable, always in a good mood, and the kids loved her. She just has that natural vibe where kids feel safe and have fun at the same time. Even when things got chaotic (which they always do at camp!), she stayed calm and handled it like a pro. If you’re looking for someone who’s caring, responsible, and just really good with kids, Seli’s the one."

"I hired Camille in July 2021 as a travel nanny and she came with us for two
weeks to Italy when our son was 18 months. Since then she’s worked days for us when we are in New York. We live in the UK so sadly she isn’t a F/T option for us.
Camille is an excellent nanny and exceedingly responsible.
Within minutes of meeting her, our shy son was happily playing with her on the floor.
I would trust her implicitly in my home and with my child. We were in a villa with a pool and
lots of stairs and we knew he was completely safe alone with her, including
swimming.
When it was too hot, she filled hours drawing, reading, etc.
She cooked him nutritious food.
She was amenable to what we wanted and needed each day and needed. When we didn’t need her, she was off doing her own thing.
She would be a great hire, esp for a family with busy parents or a single parent. She researches local activities and parks and always has a new thing to do. We were fortunate to find her."

Danelle is a wonderful care giver to my children who goes above and beyond for them. She truly cares about their happiness, health, and safety. Danelle also has a great balance of being loving and caring for them, as well as assisting in teaching them when their behavior is not ok. As a host parent, she constantly goes out of her way to help and even spend her free time with the children. She has been incredible and we will all miss her a great deal. I recommend Danelle strongly and can say that she is a wonderful person and has been so helpful and generous with her time and energy. "

"Jessi was absolutely wonderful with our daughter, who she started with around 7 months. We are first time parents and our child was medically fragile at the time and Jessi brought experience, was super careful to not get her sick, and was just generally lovely and joyful. She truly loves the children she cares for. She was also professional and respectful of any rules we set while also bringing her own suggestions which we were open to, and probably saved me hours of googling and researching something like "what is the right cup for X development stage". Jessi is incredibly trustworthy and remains a part of our inner circle, we still ask her to babysit because our daughter loves her and misses her so much. If you want a truly kind and caring experienced English speaking nanny, Jessi is perfect. She also showered our daughter with presents and clothes which we get many compliments on :) We trusted her with our precious baby and she never let us down for a second. Highly recommend!"

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in New York, NY
Before beginning the search for a nanny, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a nanny is the right choice for your child care needs. In hiring a nanny, first, you should think through what responsibilities you expect your nanny to handle. With that information, you can create a profile so that nannies can reach out to you. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. In general, a nanny is responsible for making sure your children’s needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your nanny before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location can impact how much you should pay your nanny.
New York Nanny Interviews
Once you start connecting with prospective nannies, the next step is a nanny interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some nanny interview questions to consider asking:
- Do you have experience being a nanny?
- How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?
- What sort of household tasks are you open to doing?
- Are you open to a live in arrangement in New York? Do you have experience being a live in nanny?
- Are you open to being a nanny in a nanny share?
- Do you have any references?
- Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in New York?
- Do you have a driver’s license in NY? Do you own a car?
- What salary are you seeking? Are you open to being paid through direct-deposit, pay stubs?
- What are your expectations around over-time pay and vacation time?
During the hiring process, it’s essential to ask for references, and by asking their references questions you gain a better understanding of they will fit in your family. As you get closer to hiring a nanny, be sure to run a background check to ensure your kids are in good hands. When evaluating a prospective nanny, it’s essential to make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your nanny. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around nanny responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming! And of course, as you learn how to hire a nanny, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help you along the way.
Daycare vs. Hiring a Nanny
Choosing between putting your child in daycare and hiring a nanny can be a tough decision. While nannies are often more expensive, they provide individualized attention and flexibility. Daycares, on the other hand, prioritize socialization. Our Nanny vs Daycare guide can help you determine what's best for your family.
