We grew up in a Tibetan community where we were taught that a good life consists in extending kindness and generosity to our families, our community and our planet. When we moved to New York we were struck by how New York’s driving, fast-paced and competitive lifestyle can affect the rhythms of children’s daily lives and emotional wellbeing. We wanted to provide an alternative and so Tibetan Nanny was born.

​

Because caregivers have such an important role to play in providing an environment and relationship that helps children grow at their own pace, develop a deep sense of security and thrive, we decided to create a way for New York parents to connect with caregivers who are wholly committed to contributing to each child’s sense of emotional security
and resiliency.

​

By tapping the rich community of Tibetan caregivers in the New York City area, we are able to screen for caregivers who are not only skilled and experienced in childcare best practices but have the inner qualities that will positively shape a child’s emotional and psychological growth and help provide them with a secure foundation for the future.
