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.

“Leslie is absolutely wonderful. She has watched our infant son since he was 4 mos old! With my son, Leslie is engaging, kind, energetic and was wonderful at soothing him for nap time. With us, Leslie is dependable, considerate, and an overall joy to be around. Leslie has not only bonded with Lucas but also our small doodle. If you are looking for someone to help out with your infant, Leslie is definitely the one! However, it’s clear she excels at bonding and engaging with children of all ages with her personality and vast educational experience! Thank you so much Leslie!! See you soon :) :)”

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by :) I’m Jessica, a seasoned childcare provider with 15+ years of experience caring for infants through school-age children across NYC and New Jersey. I’m CPR certified for infants and children, trained in child development, and very familiar with the realities of parenting—from separation anxiety and bedtime routines to big feelings. I’m a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology and previously studied fashion design at Pratt Institute. Creativity is central to who I am; I’m always drawing, sewing, or painting. I’ve taught sewing to 3rd–5th graders in after-school programs and led group childcare events through Project Playdate, so I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once. My experience includes infants and toddlers, children with food allergies, and those with special needs (including Autism and Cerebral Palsy). I’m patient, kind, and respectful of each family’s routines and parenting style. I strive to create a calm, safe, and imaginative environment where children feel seen, supported, and cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones.

“Jessica was great. We would use her again. ”

Hi! I'm Morgan and I have almost two decades of childcare experience. I've lived in New York for the past 9 years and currently based in Bed-Stuy. Originally from Orlando, Florida, I made my way north by way of UNC-Chapel Hill, where I graduated before ending up in Brooklyn. Over my nearly decade in NYC, I've worked with several families long-term, and I've also spent time as a long-term substitute teacher in Florida. Families tell me they appreciate that I'm reliable, calm, and genuinely enthusiastic about being there. Right now I'm taking a break from my career in the design agency world, which has given me the chance to do what I love most-- working with kids. I'm currently nannying for a 13-month-old and two 4-year-olds. I'm available for occasional nights and weekend hours.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
