Meet Jaye

  • Comfortable with pets

I am a mature woman with a youthful spirit, and parent your child as you would have me in additon, I am naturally nurturing, intuitive, empathetic and constantly learning as your child is. I am firm without being punitive, I am happy and healthy and comfortable with myself so that children of all ages are as well. I love kids, I consider myself an American Super Nanny, one part Auntie Mame, one part Mary Poppins. I have fun when they are having fun and teach by example with manners and other basics of parenting. I am comfortable with newborns and infants and reading their non verbal communications for their comfort and development. New York: My rates are on a sliding scale. For temp, short notice and trial top dollar, four hour minimum, and cab fare home for sits after 9pm. If we come to an agreement for you and your Read more family and you guarantee me a minimum of hours per week it drops to the other end of the scale. Brooklyn: rates are the same, I am based out of Park Slope. I also have new born experience and work as a labor and birth doula.

Jaye has looked after our girl for almost 3 years now whenever we were in NYC. Our daughter loves being with her, being spoiled by Jaye's unique combination of being totally professional, fun and creative with her background as an artist, Attending music classes, playing and singing and enjoying fun time at the parks. We can truly recommend Jaye, also being very flexible and open to our ideas as parents. Many thanks, we will be back!

Jaye has been taking care of our son since he was 4 months old, whenever we are in NYC on business. She had come highly recommended as a diligent, take-charge type of person able to deal with different kinds of childcare situations. We have found Jaye to be exactly that – always cool and collected, she attends to our son’s needs with ease. She arrives on time and is flexible to stay late if needed. She keeps a nap and meal time log and makes sure we are well informed of all the details of our son’s day. She is resourceful and always finds ways to keep him busy and entertained, rain or shine. Jay is responsible, reliable and trustworthy and we feel confident that our boy is safe in her hands. We highly recommend her.

Jaye took good care of our 20 month old daughter for the time she worked with us. She is great at outdoors activities and has a lot of resources.
