Manhattan Nanny Emily's References

“My daughter is clean, well-fed, and happy when I pick her up. Emily is very personable and creates a feeling of family with all the children and parents. She has been very accommodating with my schedule. She is a joy to have in our lives. I am a single mom with a constantly changing schedule and a feisty little girl. Emily has handled both with ease and kindness. My daughter is going to school this fall, but we plan on continuing with Emily’s service if we have any need for it in the future.”

“We are very pleased to provide you with this reference for Emily. My husband and I have known Emily for nearly seven years, and feel we are well suited to speak to Emily’s character and professional demeanor. We first came to know Emily in 2002 after moving to the borough of Queens. We were seeking daycare for our nine-month-old daughter, Madeline (and subsequently our son, Jackson and daughter, Emma). What we found in Emily far surpassed our expectations. Emily by nature is a nurturer and a teacher! Not only did she provide a safe and comforting environment for our children, but she also ensured their days were filled with enriching activities with an emphasis on reading, creativity, and elementary lessons. Emily is extremely conscientious and always kept us apprised of each child’s achievements, developments, and any issues that arose. We always felt involved and appreciated the exchange of information. From the start it was evident that our children’s well-beings was of the utmost importance to Emily and that our wishes as parents were incorporated into their care. This was a tremendous comfort to us while away from the children. We’ve seen first hand how diplomatic, fair, and cool Emily remains under difficult situations. She knows how to manage a group of very diverse little personalities calmly and productively. To add to Emily’s attributes, she is dedicated, reliable and flexible. As working parents, this was very helpful as our schedules tended to be somewhat inflexible. Within the last year, our family has relocated to the state of Rhode Island, which is why certain parts of this letter are written in the past tense. With the obvious distance, Emily no longer watches our children on a regular basis, but our ties are very strong and we keep in regular contact. What started out as a professional relationship seven years ago has blossomed into an enduring friendship! We have the utmost confidence that Emily will succeed in whatever endeavor she approaches, especially if it relates to children! She will be one of your favorite Nannies in Manhattan NY that your agency bring on board!”

“From the moment we met Emily and her family, we were sure she was the person whom we wanted to care for our infant son! She was always very capable and nurturing with him. No matter how many times a day I would call to check on him, she was always patient and kind with me. Damien was always happy to see her and was always happy in her care. He was always clean and well fed. When I would pick him up in the evening, she would tell me about his day in detail. Communication with Emily was never a problem. Emily was one of Damien’s first teachers as well. She helped him to learn to socialize with other children. Emily was always the consummate professional with any parent who’s child she watched. She was kind and courteous to all and has remained friends with many of us even after we have had to move on. And I can assure you, that was done with a very heavy heart as my son adores her! If we hadn’t moved, we would never have left Emily’s wonderful and nurturing care for I know that no one could have cared for my child better! Emily is like family. In a world where we are so wary of whom to leave our children with, I thank my lucky stars for her!”

“She was outstanding! Without a doubt she was wonderful with my boys! We knew immediately upon interviewing with her that she would be wonderful with my children. She was definitely educationally focused with the boys. She was always dependable and reliable. She was able to be flexible and always to give the helping hand we needed. Emily also comes from a very strong family background – her husband and family ties are extremely strong. She has a strong background and a great teacher! I highly recommend her to any family considering hiring a nanny!”

“Emily was very caring with the children, including my daughter, at her daycare. She didn’t let the children get out of hand and there was plenty for them to do. My daughter learned sharing skills and so much more with Emily! She was very empathetic and we are blessed to have found her! She did arts and crafts, games, and computer time with the kids. She was very orderly and able to multitask. I’m happy I had Emily care for my daughter. We still maintain a friendship to this day. Emily was the perfect person to care for my child. I highly recommend her to your agency as one of the Nannies in Manhattan NY you can recommend with pride!”

“I would like to emphasize my fondness for Emily! I met her back in the summer of 2000; I needed a caregiver for my daughter who was 2yrs old at the time. I came across an ad for The Carousel Family Daycare. I was very nervous having a stranger care for my children, but there was something about her that made me feel very comfortable. There were times when she extended herself to me by watching my daughter on the weekends in the comfort of my own how. My husband and I tended to depend on Emily for many other things for my daughter as well through the years. My daughter would come home and to my amazement was now spelling her name and writing it. At 2 ½ yrs old she already knew many things about the computer and by 3yrs old she was showing me learning websites that Emily had showed her. Emily also took the time to potty train her. When my daughter started Pre-K she was already ahead of most of the children in the class and I owe that to Emily. It is very hard these days for children when they have two working parents. I am so grateful to have her in our life. She still has Christmas parties every year for the children! My daughter and I never miss it!”

“I met Emily over 20 years ago through my husband at that time. She was a stay at home mom, taking care of her 3-year-old daughter and also caring for neighborhood children. When I was about to go back to work after being home with my son for his first two years, I was a bit apprehensive about entrusting his care to anyone. In the past, Vito had only stayed with relatives. After meeting Emily, it did not take long before I realized that she was the perfect person to choose! In a matter of weeks, I was able to go from a part time position to a full time position because I found my son so happy and content when Emily was caring for him, I did not have to worry. He always wanted to stay longer at her house when I came to pick him up! Emily treated Vito as her own. To this day, Emily and I are closer than sisters ourselves and our children are the best of friends! Emily did a wonderful job raising her daughter along with taking care of my son for two and a half years of his very impressionable young years. Through the years, Emily was always a dependable friend and I can honestly say that she was the only person that I have ever met, who genuinely loves children – as they love her! She always encouraged reading as most important and always showed a positive attitude about life in general, fun-loving and always focused on educating children to the best of her abilities. Her energy is infinite! Emily is a wonderful friend, a warm and loving individual and an excellent caregiver who goes above and beyond to do her best for everyone whose lives she touches. I would recommend her without a doubt to your agency as one of the Nannies in Manhattan NY that you represent with confidence!”

“Emily was a caregiver for my oldest son Anthony, now 24 years old, for a number of years, prior to his attending kindergarten. When she became a NYS Registered Daycare Provider, I brought my younger son Mark, now 14 years old, to her daycare. Emily also cared for Mark and Anthony on school holidays and during summer vacations throughout their elementary school years. All I can say is that she was not just a daycare provider to my children, but a second mother, a teacher, and a friend. My children adored Emily and still do! Throughout the years, we have become as close as family! As a matter of fact, my husband and I chose Emily and her husband to be Mark’s godparents. When I was at work, I was truly confident and worry free knowing that the children were being well cared for. At times when the children were ill, Emily’s care and concern for them was overwhelming. On occasion I would have to work late and she would work well past her normal hours just to help me out. She never asked for a penny more and would not accept any money for overtime from me whatsoever, and this was even before we became good friends. Emily taught Anthony and Mark so much in so many areas, that I truly believe that a preschool teacher could not have done a better job! She possesses a personality, which seems to just draw people, especially children, to her. Emily is extremely creative in her teaching techniques and the children love it! As an example she would begin telling a story, creating it as she went along and then pause to allow a child to continue along the same creative path, contributing his or her addition to the story, and continue this process from child to child, until finally, they would all collaborate on the ending. They were all so proud of their accomplishments and it was a part of the day that everyone looked forward to. Emily has a gift of making learning fun for the children! She allows them freedom and space to grow, to express themselves, nurturing them and always encouraging them. She is easygoing, yet is still strict with certain rules and because of this, the children learn to respect her as well as each other. Discipline is basically no problem in her daycare. On numerous occasions throughout the years, Emily has cared for my children in my home. As expected, she always was nothing less than a loving, caring, and positive influence on my children. I could never imagine what I would have done without her! She played a major role in my children’s lives and we have all greatly benefited from her love, guidance, and friendship. Emily is truly a very special, kind, and gifted individual. She is bright, dependable, disciplined, and an excellent daycare provider! I would highly recommend her for any position, especially in the field of education. I can guarantee that she will excel in all her endeavors!”

“I first met Emily in 1990 when I moved to Brooklyn. Emily lived on the same block and I would often see her in the neighborhood with her young daughter. We quickly became friends! I was always impressed with her character – most importantly, her social skills and ability to deal with a houseful of kids, adults, and pets with humor and aplomb. Emily seemed to be a straightforward, honest person: a strong leader and incredibly ‘put together’ lady, who still managed to be everyone’s favorite friend. I am happy to say that nearly 20 years later I still feel the same! I have always been impressed with how much she adored the kids she watched. She’d have fabulous stories about what they did that day! Just like she did for her own daughter, she insisted that their days be filled with books, writing, drawing, and creativity. Emily is an incomparable human being. She communicates with perfect candor and confidence; she exemplifies the compassionate, poised leader, she is well organized with exceptionally lucid common sense; and most importantly, she has one of the best personalities of anyone I’ve ever met!”

“Emily is a great person! She was great to my daughter, and my daughter loved her! She was very patient and caring and understanding. Emily always took the time to explain to the children if they were doing something wrong and why it was wrong.”

“I have known Emily for 3 years now. My son James (Jimmy) has been going there for 2 years now. He enjoys going there everyday. Emily has been more than a babysitter; she is like family to us! I have a good relationship with her; we have always been on good terms. She is very good with all children (different ages). I am extremely happy with Emily!”
