About Us
Founded in 2013, we bring over a decade of specialized experience to the nanny placement industry. Our founder, Alie, brings a uniquely comprehensive perspective to our agency – having worked as a professional nanny herself, led service industry teams, and now navigating the joys and challenges of motherhood while employing a nanny for her own family.
This multifaceted experience gives our team an unparalleled understanding of the nanny-family relationship from every angle. We intimately understand both the needs of families seeking reliable childcare and the professional aspirations of qualified nannies.
Working alongside her long-term partner, a successful start-up founder and early AI expert, Alie has strategically integrated emerging technologies into our agency operations. This innovative approach has allowed us to significantly reduce friction in the matching process while leveraging our extensive, carefully cultivated database of NYC nannies – a valuable resource built over many years in the industry.
Our combination of deep industry experience, personal involvement on both sides of the nanny-family relationship, and technology-forward approach makes us uniquely positioned to find the perfect match for your family's specific needs.

Allie Moya
PRESIDENT & FOUNDER
As a former Brooklyn Heights nanny, I founded Brooklyn Manny and Nanny while pursuing multiple passions—birth work as a doula, hospitality management, and eventually opening my own restaurant in 2019. Now a mother residing in Suffolk County, my journey from Brooklyn nanny to business owner has given me invaluable insights into what truly matters in household staffing and family support.
Since 2013, Brooklyn Manny and Nanny has helped thousands of families throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan find their perfect household match. Bridging my personal experience as both service provider and parent, I've created a staffing approach that honors the unique needs of each family we serve. It's been an incredibly fulfilling journey watching families thrive with the right support in place.

Hannah Schneider
Associate Director of Placements
With a rich background spanning nearly 5 years as a professional nanny before transitioning to staffing, I bring a unique dual perspective to Brooklyn Manny and Nanny. My hands-on experience caring for children taught me the nuances of building meaningful relationships with families and the critical importance of communication, attention to detail, and thoughtful childcare.
Based in St. Louis, Missouri, I guide families through every step of the selection process in my role as Associate Director of Placements. My childcare philosophy centers around patience and empathy, understanding that each child has unique needs—there's no "one size fits all" approach to childcare. This perspective allows me to look beyond resumes to find those special connections that create lasting, positive relationships.
When not helping families find their perfect childcare match, you might find me lost in a historical fiction novel (I read over 100 books annually!), experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, or creating artwork—a passion I share with my mother. I'm proud to be part of the exceptional team at Brooklyn Manny and Nanny, where we're committed to creating positive experiences for both families and childcare professionals.

After nearly 5 years as a professional nanny, I developed a deep understanding of the unique needs of children and families. During this time, I honed in on communication, strong attention to detail and the importance of building lasting relationships. Motivated by a desire to make a broader impact, I transitioned into staffing, joining Brooklyn Manny and Nanny. Here, I leverage the interpersonal skills and knowledge gained as a nanny to help families find the perfect match for their childcare needs. Whether guiding families through the selection process or providing ongoing support; this work is incredibly fulfilling and I find joy in the meaningful relationships I help cultivate. Passionate about creating a positive experience for both families and nannies, I continue to thrive in this rewarding field alongside the incredible team at BMAN.
