Playful Ideas

I’m so glad you’re here! I’m the nanny behind the name, with over 10 years of experience working in families’ homes all across NYC. Now, let’s be honest—I don’t really know what’s best (who does?), but I have learned a lot about what works, what doesn’t, and what can make life with little ones run a whole lot smoother. This blog is where I’ll share all my hard-earned tips and tricks: creative crafts, fun play ideas, and simple ways to help the whole family grow closer together. I’ll also be spotlighting my favorite products that make caretaking easier and better—from trusty strollers to can’t-miss books and toys that are as educational as they are fun. Settle in and stay awhile—let’s make this parenting (and nannying!) journey a little easier together!
