A little bit about me
I am an experienced childcare provider with over eight years of experience caring for infants, children, and teenagers. My background includes working with children with disabilities.
My approach to childcare is rooted in patience, flexibility, and respect. I believe in fostering a nurturing and stimulating environment where children feel safe and encouraged to explore their interests. I always prioritize open communication with parents, ensuring we work together to provide the best care possible.
I love outdoor activities, playing sports, playing with LEGOs, Barbies, and swimming. Being bilingual in English and Spanish allows me to engage with children in a way that supports both learning and fun.
I'd love the opportunity to know more about your family and how I can be a great fit. Please, feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you!

I currently live in Midtown Manhattan, on the East Side, which makes me conveniently located and flexible with scheduling. As a bilingual nanny (English and Spanish), I can also provide language support if desired, something many families have found to be a valuable addition.
I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where children can thrive. I would be delighted to bring my experience, reliability, and warmth to your family, and I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can best support your needs.

What are the responsibilities of a nanny?
Nanny responsibilities range from childcare tasks to assisting with household duties. The exact job description depends on the specific needs of the family. For a special needs nanny, duties might also include providing tailored care and implementing therapeutic activities. Activities can be tailored to the child's interests and abilities. For instance, exploring sensory-friendly exhibits at the Children's Museum of the Arts for a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Check out our guide for a deeper dive into nanny responsibilities.
How should I conduct a nanny interview?
When you find a nanny in New York, the interview process is crucial. Prepare in advance by creating a list of nanny interview questions tailored to your family's needs. These may touch on their experience with special needs children, their training, and their ability to handle potential emergency situations. Remember, it's essential to have a conversation, not just a Q&A session. Here's how to prepare for a nanny interview.
What is a nanny contract and why do I need one?
A nanny contract is an agreement between you and your nanny that outlines key details such as hours, salary, and job duties. It helps set clear expectations and can help prevent misunderstandings down the road. It's also a great place to lay out specifics about caring for children with special needs. For a closer look at the details, see our guide on nanny contracts.
What should I know about nanny payroll and taxes?
Nannies are considered household employees, which means you're responsible for withholding taxes from their paycheck and paying employer taxes. This process can be complex, but a nanny payroll service can help simplify it.
How do I ensure a safe and secure hire with background checks?
Background checks are a vital step in the hiring process. They can provide peace of mind about your potential nanny's criminal history, driving records, and other vital information. It's always wise to inform candidates in advance that you will be conducting a background check. You can learn more about our approach to background checks here.
How do I decide between a part-time, full-time, or summer nanny?
Your decision will depend on your family's needs and schedule. A full-time nanny often works 40 hours a week, while a part-time nanny might work less than that. A summer nanny is typically hired for a set period during the summer break. You might find that one type of arrangement better fits your family's requirements. To help you navigate these choices, we've prepared a guide detailing the costs associated with each type of nanny in New York.
