“I would definitely recommend Brownstone Nannies! I was so overwhelmed by the process of finding daycare and evaluating all the options. My husband and I had decided to go with a nanny (mainly because she was only going to be 12 weeks when I had to go back to work and some daycares wouldn’t take a baby that young… and frankly, I was nervous that a baby that young would not get the care/attention that I wanted her to receive). Then when I started thinking about the process of finding a nanny, it seemed like picking a needle out of a haystack!
We met with Sharon and she told us about the process of using her referral service and it sounded like she would do most of the heavy-lifting. She does a full background check on each of the women in her service. She calls every single one of their references herself. She meets with each of them. And she even asks around – other mothers, other nannies, etc. She is well entrenched into all the various nanny circles – the nanny networking is pretty amazing to me.
Anyway, she sent us a good variety of nannies since we weren’t sure what we were looking for. We felt the most comfortable with the 3rd woman we interviewed, but still interviewed one more. We hired the 3rd one and just absolutely LOVE our nanny!
Sharon really listens to your wants/needs/concerns and even listened to me when I panicked about going back to work (which I felt was above and beyond what she promises with her services!). She had a very hard time with finding daycare when she had her first child several years ago and is very passionate about making the process easier and less stressful for mothers today.
She also has a great rapport with her nannies and her clients and continues to check in with both me and my nanny months later.
I really do feel she saved me a lot of time. I didn’t have to try to find nannies, track down their references, try to find out more info on them by asking around, etc. etc. Sharon does so much of that for you. Granted, you still get all the references and you can call them yourself, but she’s already weeded through a lot of nannies to find the most capable and caring nannies out there.”
