Berenice V.

Berenice is a rare find. She is professional, warm and extremely knowledgable about infant development. My husband I felt 100% comfortable trusting her with our 2 month old and look forward to continuing to work with Berenice as our daughter grows up.

Berenice was great with our daughter right from the start. Responsible, knowledgeable, and clear communicator. Highly recommend!

Berenice is a wonderful person and sitter. She is professional, warm, flexible, communicative and incredibly seasoned with caring for children - love that she has a nursing background. She has great suggestions and recommendations based on her experience but also lets the parents take the lead. We had a great experience with her for a night out, and Berenice will soon nanny for our 3 month old daughter part time - I have full confidence our daughter will be in wonderful hands!

Berenice looked after our 3 month old daughter several days a week for 7 weeks while we were staying in New Paltz. She is the warmest, and most thoughtful caregiver we could have asked for. Our daughter truly loved her and smiled every time she saw her in the morning. Berenice was super proactive, creating a schedule for our daughter and showing us new games and exercises to help our daughter learn new skills. When Berenice was with her I never worried and knew that she was in great hands. If we hadn't left the area we would have gladly continued to work with her and hope to work with her again in the future.

Berenice, who is a registered nurse, was absolutely the most incredible babysitter we could ask for for our 6 week old son. We were understandably anxious about leaving him with someone when he was so young, but work meant we had to — and Berenice put all our anxieties to rest with her professionalism, her knowledge, and her sincere care for our son! Communication was always easy; she was always reliable; and whenever we as first time parents had a question, she always knew the answer and the reasons behind the answer. Our son really couldn’t have gotten luckier in his start in life. Our loss (we’re based in the city) is your gain. And when she had to move, Berenice even made sure we had a trusted and wonderful babysitter to take over from her, and made sure to continue communicating with her so that the transition was easy on our son.

We were very lucky to find Berenice. Our young boys had a fantastic time, she was very engaging with them, reading them books, prepping dinner and putting to bed. The boys were extremely happy and so were we. I can't wait to use Berenice again!

We have had the pleasure of working with Berenice as a babysitter for our 7 month old over the last week, and it has been a wonderful experience. We needed someone suddenly because of a Covid scare with our nanny and Berenice was extremely flexible and professional. She has been amazing - very responsible, sweet and a natural with our daughter. She has been offering us extremely valuable advice from her prior experience as both a nanny and nurse. Our little girl loves her and we look forward to using her again. Bhavika

Berenice cared for our two daughters: 3.5y and 6m. I have never seen Berenice on her phone and she actively plays with my daughter the entire day. Berenice is very aware of developmental steps and milestones and uses these steps to create a daily schedule. She develops wonderful arts and crafts projects, reads to my daughter at every meal, inspires imaginative play, and weather permitting goes outside as much as possible. When she takes my daughter to the playground, Berenice does not sit on the side, but spends her time playing and engaging with my daughter by running all over with her. She is truly my daughter’s best friend. Berenice has also been a wonderful partner in raising my children. She has helped with every task that I have asked (preparing meals, tidying up after the girls, and laundry for some examples) and takes her role as a care giving partner very seriously. She made it a priority to connect on my daughter's behavior and development, was willing to follow the parents' leads, and a great resource for suggestions. I have been nothing short of impressed with how well she has cared for my daughter and give her my highest recommendation.

Berenice is the best! Our daughters get so excited when she comes over. She is caring, loving, and kind and we are so lucky to have her care for our kids. She is patient and has a lot of experience with kids. Any family would be lucky to have her.
