Rachel loves being a Brooklyn Governess because it is the most nurturing way to provide care for a child!

"I am a very passionate and extremely caring person. If I was asked to describe in one sentence the reason I have chosen to be in the Nanny profession over any other it would have to be because I feel that taking care of children in a home environment as a nanny is the most nurturing way to provide care for a child. It allows the children to feel more secure in familiar surroundings. I have been serving in some form of childcare experience for over five years and can honestly say I love what I do! I feel the children are little angels given to us to love, care and cherish. My goal as a Nanny is to find a family that I could became a part of and assist in every way possible in regards to the upbringing of the children and to see them grow. I am willing to do any and all housekeeping the family may require. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am dependable, helpful, happy, energetic, and focused. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would include educational activities, going to library, taking the children to the park, and teaching the children good nutritional habits. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a Nanny like me I would hope they would share some of the same qualities and beliefs that I have in caring for children."

"Rachel has taken care of both my children since they were very young. She is very detail-oriented. Rachel is personable as well as understanding to the parents needs and has a very open attitude. She is organized; whenever I picked up the children the play room was impeccably clean, even when the children were playing it was organized, not like in other daycares where you can't even walk through the room. Rachel has excellent communication skills; she had a daily diary for every individual child, it contained what each child ate, playing patterns, if they were feeling ill, if they took a nap, basically everything that you can think of. I wish every child care service would use a daily diary; this helps me understand how the day went. It was especially important to me since my children at the time were very young and not able to communicate with us. She absolutely thinks outside the box. Her creativity, her compassion for others, and her approachable personality made it easy for my husband and me to work with her. Working in hospitality, customer care is the quintessential ideal in running a business. Rachel has all the qualities and more, her attention to detail and communication with individuals is unbelievable. She takes care of everyone around her; people tend to draw towards her which again is what makes her a fantastic Brooklyn Governess."

"Rachel always went above and beyond her duties. She is very organized, creative, caring, and qualified. My child was always happy while in her care. She provided care for my child as if she were her own. Rachel has a natural way with children that you don’t see too often. She not only cared for my daughter, she taught her many things including some Spanish. I never worried when my daughter was with her. I have yet to find another person like her. She is a blessing. I can wholeheartedly recommend her to any family!"

"I have known and worked with Rachel for three years. When I began working at the daycare center Rachel was one of the people assigned to train me. She is a very hard working person who goes above and beyond the tasks that are required of her. She is very punctual and always willing to lend a helping hand. When working with children she has always shown them a lot of love and affection. Rachel is one of the first people I turn to if I need assistance because I know that she will try the best she can and she will be positive. If she is not certain how to complete a task she will ask. It is always a pleasure to work with Rachel because she comes in with a bright smile and a welcoming personality. I have had the pleasure of knowing Rachel both in and out of work and I can honestly say that she is as dedicated to her and family and friends as she is at work. Rachel has always taken it upon herself to make sure that her work is organized and complete before leaving to go home for the day. She is very creative and will figure out different ways to complete a task or to create an activity so it can be enjoyable. I believe that working with the children is a very good fit for Rachel because she will show them a lot of love, attention, and affection while still being able to complete her job responsibilities."

"I highly recommend Rachel as a candidate for a Brooklyn Governess position, I have had the pleasure of knowing Rachel for many years and I can honestly say that she is one of the most caring, hardest working, dependable and most of all loving and compassionate people I know. I had witnessed firsthand on how Rachel stood by her aunts bedside while she was lying in a comatose state, her love and compassion for her aunt and her family were beyond words, she demonstrated great strength and perseverance in a time that was extremely difficult for her, she was a “rock” for her family. I have no doubt in my mind that Rachel would be a tremendous asset and she has my highest recommendation."
