Hello - when are you looking for full time help/returning to work? If it's not too far off (Sept/Oct timeframe), our nanny maybe a good fit.

Hi - our wonderful nanny will be available in September when we move out of the city. Please contact me if you are interested in discussing her or setting up an interview - I would be happy to talk to you or just connect you directly to her. I am cuRrently on maternity leave with our 2nd child, so please email me since we are keeping odd hours/don't want to wake the baby.

She's been with us nearly 2 years, since my daughter was a few months old and I went back to work. We (and our parents) have been thrilled with her work. Our daughter has been saying please, thank you, etc since she could first talk. She cooks for her, sets up lots of playdates, is outdoors as much as possible, doesn't do TV or much cell phone (has to set up meetings/playdates, but keeps it brief - when our daughter plays she copies her nanny with pretend phone calls "Hello, ok, yes, bye"). She is firm/strict, but in a very gentle way and she is very, very safety conscious. We were lucky to find her (and my in-laws, who have spent time with her on several occasions, tell me that often - this was their 1st grandbaby, so they were very concerned/vocal.). I felt very comfortable going back to work, leaving them.

The family she was with before us had 2 young children - she was with them nearly 2 years, then they also relocated. Our nanny or I can connect you with them if you'd like additional references. They were also very pleased with her work. She is looking for a full-time, long term position.
