We've used NEN for over 10 years, finding great long term nanny placements and consistently good experiences with last minute or scheduled ad hoc childcare requests. This past year I started using NEN for elderly caregiving for my mom and have only overwhelming positive things to say. Would highly recommend this agency and the lovely caregivers they hire.
Mariah Hahn
We have used New England Nanny in the past for long-term caregiver placement and have had really good experiences. So when were were looking for a new caregiver, it was natural for us to go back to them. The staff at New England Nanny went above and beyond to help our family find the right fit for our family. They conducted excellent pre-screening of candidates, provided us with a number candidates, and never felt pressured during the process. We were allowed to time and space to select the best match for our situation.
Response from the owner:Mariah, we are delighted to hear that your first experience with our agency was so positive that you came right back when you needed us again. We pride ourselves on finding that right fit for each family, and we're so happy that we were able to meet your needs. We truly appreciate the kind words - thank you!
Ashley Zabrisky
I’m a nanny and worked with Melissa for finding my first two contracts. The first contract I had I was treated very poorly by my ‘employer’ and had to end my stay with her very abruptly. When I reached out to Melissa and explained what I dealt with living/working for this woman she was supportive, apologetic and immediately helpful. When looking for a different contract Melissa was again helpful and encouraging and helped me find the wonderful family I work for now. After such a rough go around with my first contract I was very nervous to ‘get back on the horse’, but Melissa made it easy. I can’t thank the company enough for helping through that difficult situation and having my back when my contract and basic human rights were violated. They were quick to take action and make sure the situation was dealt with. I would recommend this company to any nanny or family looking for childcare. Thank you again New England Nanny and Melissa!
Response from the owner:Ashley, we are so glad you stuck with it after a poor first experience and found a great family. Thank you for letting us know how helpful and professional Melissa was - it's what we strive for with every nanny and every family we work with. We truly appreciate the kind words!
Amanda Goldstein
A New England Nanny is great to work with. I’ve been with two amazing NF thanks to Melissa, and when I was in between families they were great at keeping me busy with part-time work.
Response from the owner:Amanda, thanks so much for letting us know how much you enjoy working for our agency. We truly appreciate your hard work and we're glad to have you on our team!
Risa Sarachan
They found us a nanny we really love and were quick and professional in helping us with our search. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Risa, we are delighted to hear that you found a great nanny for your family! Thank you for your recommendation, we truly appreciate it.
Nick Wilock
We have worked with Melissa and her team for over 3 years now. Our first nanny was with us for 3 years and the team did an excellent job matching us with the right fit. After our nanny decided to pursue higher education full time, we began another search and Melissa and her team were dedicated, responsive and patient with us. And when someone we signed up with ended up not being the best fit, no questions asked - Melissa got right to work again to find a better match. A New England Nanny has more than met our expectations on several occasions. Their customer service and willingness to work until we found the right fit is very commendable.
Response from the owner:Nick, it's so great to hear that Melissa and her team have provided you not only with quality child care, but with superior customer service. Thank you very much for the kind words - we truly appreciate them and your business!
Eliza
I’ve been so impressed by A New England Nanny! The team was extremely helpful. Melissa responded promptly to my calls and emails. She worked diligently to locate a perfect nanny quickly (and did it twice!) I can’t speak highly enough of Melissa, her team, and the agency as a whole!
Response from the owner:Eliza, we are so glad to hear how good your experience has been with us. It's great to know that Melissa has been responsive and was able to get you the ideal child care you needed (twice!). Thanks so much for the kind words and for your business!
Raven
Fantastic service! Took the stress out of the nanny search. Within just a few weeks we went from the initial consult call to a hired nanny. All the candidates were experienced and had great personalities and got along well with our daughter, so it was a tough call. Melissa, who managed the process for us, checked in regularly to see how things were going. I recommend to anyone looking for a part time or full time nanny!
Response from the owner:Raven, it's wonderful to hear that our agency has made life easier for you! We are delighted that the process went smoothly, that you were able to hire a great nanny from quality candidates, and that Melissa has provided you with excellent support. Thank you so much for the kind words and for your business!
Laurie Knaack
The support from Melissa at A New England Nanny has been excellent throughout the process of locating a nanny. The agency is up front and transparent about costs, and patient and helpful with those who have never hired a household employee. Melissa was great at translating my unique needs into short briefings for candidates, located a number of suitable matches, and scheduled interviews for us, then walked me through the hiring process once we’d found a great candidate. The service was very worthwhile and I’m not sure how I would have done it without ANEN.
Response from the owner:We are so grateful to hear about your experience with us! Melissa does everything she can to make families happy, and we're glad she was able to do so for you. Thank you for sharing, Laurie!
Susan Kaplan
I have worked with ANEN some years and I find the company outstanding in every way. The staff is quick to respond and give praise to its employees. I have had a good experience with them.
Response from the owner:Thanks so much Susan!
Skyla-Belle Johnson
I came to work for Melissa and the team as ANEN this past year after coming from an international placement agency. Melissa has been hands down the best boss I have worked with. The administrative staff take time to get to know you, and in turn find the best placements they can for both the family and nanny. I will be working with them for many more years. I have nothing but great things to say for this agency.
Response from the owner:We truly appreciate you, Skyla-Belle! Happy to have you on the team!
Zach Taylor
Positive experiences across the board. Professional organization
Response from the owner:Thank you Zach!
Aja Grosvenor-Stephens
I cannot recommend A New England Nanny enough. We have used their services for our conference "Kids' Club" for the past two years. The caregivers are attentive, caring, prepared and fun! We always have a range of ages and allergies, and they are ready with games, crafts, walks, whatever you need. We will definitely use their services whenever we are in the Capital area.
Response from the owner:Aja, thank you very much for the kind words! We are proud of our awesome caregivers and we're so glad they provide the services you need for your conferences. Thanks again!
Mallorie Gerwitz
A New England Nanny has been a wonderful agency to work with/for. I found my full time placement with a wonderful family in the Capital District through ANEN. Melissa is very kind and professional and is quick to respond to messages or emails. If you are looking for a nanny or you are looking to find a wonderful family in the New England area to be matched with go with A New England Nanny! I have had a positive experience and highly recommend ANEN.
Response from the owner:Mallorie, thank you so much! We pride ourselves on making quality placements for local families, we're so glad you've been happy with us!
Purdy Hollow Farm
We needed a temporary nanny housekeeper at the very last minute during a busy period for our family. Melissa found us someone within a day who was a perfect fit! Melissa listened to our needs and extended the search through her network, even though we had a unique situation with a lot of complexity. We would definitely reach out to her agency in the future.
Response from the owner:It was our pleasure, glad we were able to help!
Ann Maio
My son was getting married at a resort in Bolton's Landing and I needed help with my 90 year old Mom and my two dogs. I was extremely nervous as we had to travel with everyone and were not local to the area. Debra was so accommodating and introduced me to two wonderful people. The service giver for my Mom was so patient and professional and my Mom was able to enjoy every moment of the weekend. My dogs are extremely anxious and Crista won them over within a few hours. She went from room to room taking care of the dogs and stayed in touch with me every step of the way. She quickly learned their patterns and was amazing. Thanks to Debra and the extremely competent staff we were all able to totally enjoy the wedding weekend and honestly I trusted both Laurie and Crista so much that I didn't even need to check in with either of them as they totally took care of everything. Laurie was so wonderful that everyone assumed that she was a family member. Debra went above and beyond, as did her staff. I would recommend her and her services to anyone. AMAZING!!
Response from the owner:We were happy to help, glad everything worked out!
Vikki G
We have used A New England nanny for cleaning services and for their pinch hitter emergency babysitting services. They have sent us top notch help that is reliable & trustworthy. The price for services is also very fair. I would recommend these services to anyone!
Response from the owner:It's our pleasure, thank you for the kind words!
Summer Segreto
A New England nanny saved me. I love working with children so this is the perfect job for me. I have had two jobs with them. The transition has been smooth with both. Both families I have worked for have been a dream. And I know if I were In need of another job, they would not hesitate to help me find one. The ladies in the office are wonderful. Always friendly and always willing to help. They are also very encouraging when you are job hunting. I plan on staying with them for a long time. The families trust them. I trust them. It’s a win win situation.
Response from the owner:We so appreciate you and your kind words - thank you!!

Amanda Melino
Melissa At New England Nanny spent countless hours discussing our specific needs for childcare. We are so appreciative for her help and grateful to have found such a caring and compassionate nanny for our daughter. I highly recommend their services!
Response from the owner:Thanks so much, Amanda!
Karen R.
Melissa was extremely responsive and incredibly helpful to our family. She spent a lot of her time listening to our needs and would send us candidates based on what we told her we were looking for. We would not have been able to survive without NEN's help. We have a wonderful, caring, responsible, professional nanny who our children adore. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Melissa and NEN!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Karen! It's been wonderful to work with you and I'm ecstatic that we could make your family happy. Thanks again!
Laura MacDonald
I am beyond blessed to have gotten a job working with New England nanny. Melissa took the time to make sure I found a great family to work with and helped me along every step of the way. When you love your job you don’t even consider it “work”. I have worked with families part time and now am in a full time position and every experience I have had has been great. If you are looking to work with children or looking for great care for your children I recommend going through New England Nanny.
Response from the owner:Thanks so much for the kind words, Laura - we love having you on the team!
Anna Lis Laursen
New England Nanny was able to provide a list of well qualified candidates, very quickly. Everything was well organized.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, it was our pleasure!
Amy Linden
Our childcare plans were completely upended by the COVID-19 pandemic. I had heard multiple success stories from colleagues about using A New England Nanny so we decided to head down the nanny path for our infant. Melissa was kind, attentive and thorough. She provided us with quality nanny candidates and helped facilitate interviews, contracts and answered any little question I could think of promptly. The stress of wading through applications with online services, doing our own background checks and starting from scratch with forming a contract were all handled. Our family is very happy with the nanny we found using this service and the customer service that was provided every step of the way!
Response from the owner:It's so nice to hear this, we are thrilled everything went well for you!
Lauren Owens
Great service and we are happy with the babysitting services. The company has saved us a lot of time in finding reliable child care and the staff is wonderful at answering any and all questions. Would highly recommend.
Response from the owner:It's our pleasure, thank you so much!
