Experienced infant specialist with 16 years of childcare experience caring for children from as young as 3 weeks old through adolescence. I specialize in newborn and infant care, providing calm, attentive, and nurturing support while helping families maintain consistent routines and a peaceful environment. I’m especially well-suited for families seeking reliable infant care, evening/date-night coverage, or overnight support when children are asleep. I hold dual Bachelor’s degrees from Brandeis University in Biology and Health: Science, Society and Policy. My background includes working as a Teaching Assistant at the Lemberg Children’s Center, serving as a Youth Counselor with the Police Athletic League in Brooklyn, and teaching violin to children of all ages. I currently work part-time as a middle school teacher and professional violinist. Families describe me as patient, dependable, warm, and highly attentive. I genuinely love supporting children in their earliest developmental stages and creating a safe, comforting environment where both children and parents feel at ease.

Hi- My name is Leslie and I’m currently a part time childcare provider and student at Hunter College. I have been caring for children since I was 12 years old and absolutely love it, I am easy going and energetic. Those early interactions with kids is what led me to my career path of studying Early Childhood Education and becoming a teacher. In past and present years my responsibilities have been everything from playing with kids, making meals/snacks, diaper changing, taking to various activities, reading to them, helping with homework, light tidying up, school pick ups and a host of other duties. I have worked with all ages ranging from newborns to pre teens and can also offer numerous references on site if that is something that would make any family feel more at ease. My experience with the elderly/seniors is associated with the care of both my grandparents. I have assisted with giving medications, helping in daily hygiene care, cleaning and making beds, cooking/food prep, taking to appointments and just generally being a friendly ear and companion to help brave the long hours in the day. I look forward to being of great help to any families that need it.
