"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Leah $22 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Leah, and I'm a 24-year-old Brooklyn-based caregiver currently preparing to start law school. I'm seeking part-time childcare work over the summer and would love to support a family during this time. I bring over six years of childcare experience, including working as an overnight camp counselor, supporting children with special needs, and providing tutoring across various subjects. These roles have helped me develop patience, creativity, and strong communication skills, as well as the ability to adapt to each child's unique personality and needs. My schedule is very flexible throughout the summer, and I'm happy to work with families to find a routine that fits best. I truly enjoy building meaningful connections with the children I care for and creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment. I look forward to chatting with you and seeing if I would be a great fit for your family's needs!
