Welcome to The Story of My Nanny Circle!
Over a decade ago, I, Alene Mathurin, found myself in Manhattan, caring for the most adorable twin girls. At the cusp of my undergraduate studies, my heart was torn. Driven by the tales of opportunity, I journeyed to America, spurred by Oprah’s proclamation that it was the best place to be a woman. Yet, as I embarked on my educational journey, I discovered another facet of greatness – the community of nannies.

What They Says About Us
"A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives" - Jackie Robinson My Nanny Circle gave me a platform to celebrate myself in a safe space, to learn and blossom, Launching several successful businesses and realizing my true potential; for that l'm grateful to Alene for her selfless dedication to the nanny community.
As a member of MNC I have gained many friendships and acquaintances. This is a place I feel happy, content, and grow professionally. A place I get to learn the ins and outs of being A Professional Nanny of New York, by means of attending several Nanny workshops and Retreats. And because of this place I have proudly become a success in the industry. How you may ask. And the simple response would be by paying attention and applying all I've learned to my day to day life as a Professional Nanny. One of the activities I look forward to would be the Annual Holiday Ball. Here I get the opportunity to show up, show out, get "glammed up", celebrate my accomplishments, recognize my hard work throughout the year, and dancing the night away. Here, in this place I let loose and be unapologetically Naomi. Alene Mathurin, thank you for paving the way for me and opening up all those avenues for growth, potential and endless knowledge. I thank God for your presence in my life, and your presence in the entire Nanny Industry. I pray that God will continue to bestow upon you bountiful blessings in all you do and will continue to do on our behalf. You're truly appreciated and loved. Once again, Thank You.
My Nanny Circle has been a very positive experience for me as a Nanny and Newborn Care Specialist. I have met some of the best professionals at My Nanny Circle Training Workshops and the My Nanny Circle Holiday Ball! My experience has been so magical with so many great women from all different walks of life. Women who are so passionate about the work they do every day. At My Nanny Circle, it's all love and compassion for all. I am also a proud moderator at My Nanny Circle who takes pride in helping manage this wonderful group consisting of strong women from all over the world. The owner of My Nanny Circle is a life coach and a great friend to so many of us. I am definitely a proud member of My Nanny Circle.
Being part of a circle of caring friends and nannies, and experiencing social and educational paths in my passionate professional nanny life has been exhilarating, heartwarming, and the most beautiful feeling, especially when my employer families are just as excited as I am to be within the circle. As a retired nanny who has dedicated 33 years to the profession, I consider myself an honorary member of My Nanny Circle until death do us part!
My Nanny Circle has been a staple in the wider community and in the New York City/Tri-State area. From encouragement, advice and making lifelong friendships with other Nannies that makes this very lonely career so full of conversation and camaraderie! The events are a much needed reset and rejuvenation for us all! We love you, My Nanny Circle!
When I reflect on how "My Nanny Circle Community" has impacted and inspired me, I don't have to dig deep to answer. Because I want to excel in the nanny world, and thanks to this community, I can pursue it with colors flying so brightly. I also stumbled upon these two quotes that sum up what this community means to me:
"None of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things with great love, and together we can accomplish something wonderful."
"Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision, directing individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows ordinary people to achieve extraordinary results."
Joining the My Nanny Circle Facebook group has truly been a game-changer for me. From the moment I became a part of this community, I instantly felt a sense of belonging. The support and camaraderie among members are unmatched, and it's incredible how many doors this group has opened for me professionally. But beyond the professional opportunities, the most invaluable aspect of My Nanny Circle has been the friendships I've formed. Some of my closest nanny friends today are individuals I met through this group. We share experiences, offer advice, and uplift each other through the ups and downs of nanny life. Overall, My Nanny Circle is more than just a Facebook group – it's a vibrant community that fosters connection, growth, and support among nannies. I'm incredibly grateful to be a part of it.
I encountered MNC around late 2016. Before joining the MNC Family, what I learned had become an essential part of my identity as a nanny. Prior to discovering MNC, I kept my nanny profession low-key because I didn't want to face judgment. However, after joining MNC, I had to retrain my mindset by educating myself to become a professional nanny and embracing my title proudly. I've gained immense knowledge, improved my social interactions, and undergone personal development in the nanny world. Today, I'm incredibly proud to be part of MNC. Thank you for providing an amazing, non-judgmental community that supports and encourages us all. Grateful
My Nanny Circle! Wow, My Nanny Circle, there's so much to say about the positive aspects of my career as a nanny for the past 28 years or more. The first time I heard about the Nanny Circle community, I was just starting in the industry.Being part of the Nanny Circle, I have learned how to become qualified and certified, how to communicate with my employer, and how to negotiate my salary. I learned about my entitlements on the job, such as sick days and vacation time. We were also encouraged to take many classes about childcare and self-care. And let's not forget our Annual Nanny Ball, where we can dress up like Cinderella and be ourselves. Thanks to Alene Mathurin, who encouraged me through her inspiring advocacy for nannies. Without you, I wouldn't have known so much about being a nanny. Thank you, Alene.
I've been a member of My Nanny Circle since April 2016. My Nanny Circle has positively impacted my life as a domestic worker in many ways. I didn't know about my rights as a domestic worker. I was taken advantage of in my current job at the time when I attended a "nanny fundamental skills training event." Upon entering the event, I learned so many things about nannies and how we can advocate for ourselves and enforce our rights to improve our lives. Alene is a true gem. She has made a positive impact on many of us domestic workers. I appreciate the incredible job that "My Nanny Circle" has done and continues to do for its members. I can attest to that, having had the privilege of being selected as one of the nanny awardees for nanny excellence and receiving an acknowledgment award as a dedicated advocate for domestic workers. Thank you, Alene Mathurin (My Nanny Circle).
