We recruit dedicated, loving, professional, college-educated nannies who will share their expertise with your children—from helping with reading homework, to learning French, to practicing the cello. Our nannies’ diverse skill sets are carefully matched to meet each family’s individual needs with the intention of forming a lasting, meaningful relationship.

On a rainy day, your nanny might head with your little ones to the American Museum of Natural History, the Children’s Library at Stavros Niarchos, any of NYC’s indoor playspaces, or even the One World Observatory. In the warmer months, they might take your little ones on adventures to the Tisch Children’s Petting Zoo, The Intrepid Museum, or one of the city’s many kid-friendly parks that are often full of children and families (our favorite is the new-ish Domino Park just across the Williamsburg Bridge!).
