Booked by 3 families in Elmhurst, NY

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 :) :)”

Booked by 39 families in Elmhurst, NY

Hi there! My name is Aidan. I am 24 years old, I finished my Culture and Arts degree at Fordham last year, am pursuing working in the performing arts, work in the Theatre Industry, and am looking for some babysitting gigs to earn some extra money in this new chapter of life! I grew up between San Francisco and Brooklyn, so I am great with city kids as I am one! I have so much passion for working with kids (I have tons of classroom experience) and really think I could be a great fit for your family if you gave me a chance! - Why do I babysit? - 1. I love kids! I grew up in a big family as the oldest child on all sides so I have been helping take care of little ones for most of my life. 2. I have a passion for working with kids! I have in the classroom experience which has given me tons of childhood development skills and babysitting lets me use them! 3. I strive to be a positive male role model in all children’s lives. I grew up with girls and loved doing arts and crafts, make believe, dolls, etc… As a boy I love to rough house, run around, and play games. Anything a female babysitter can bring to the table, I can too! - My Background - I have been working with kids for 10 years as an After School Teacher, Nanny, Babysitter and Camp Counselor. I am certified in CPR/First Aid and have training in Child Abuse Prevention. Additionally, I have in-the-classroom experience which has enabled me to become very familiar with current educational standards and would be an excellent assistant to your child's homework needs. More importantly though, that knowledge helps me be more relatable to them as I understand what they’re currently experiencing at school! I have a background in performing arts, which you will find allows for pretty awesome story-times and games. We theatre kids have a ton of energy and I am no exception to this. I can keep up with all the energy your kids have and then some. I am a good listener and am flexible and willing to do just about anything a family needs of me. At the end of the day, the most important thing to me is to make sure your children are safe and happy, and that you as parents are satisfied with my care. I know it is uncommon to hire men in this field, but I promise you that you will not regret hiring me and I would be more than happy to provide as many references as you want! Let me know if you think I could be a good match for your family!
