Hi! My name is Emilie, a rising senior at Syracuse University. I have spent my last 4 summers babysitting 4 kids daily. When I began, the kids were aged 5, 7, 8, 11. I drove them to their daily obligations, worked with them on summer homework/tutoring materials, played with them, cooked for them, and so much more! I now work part-time and am available to babysit often. I am great with kids of all ages and am a very organized and responsible babysitter! I have a car and am able to take them to camps, sports practices, lessons, or whatever they might need to attend. I’m also a very creative person and love to paint, embroider, sew, and so much more! I live right next to the beach, so I am also able to bring them there as well!

I am Ari, a recent NYU Tisch graduate , I am 22 years old and I am a kind, hard-working, and creative individual. My hours and schedule are flexible! The past year I have been working with 3 different families with babies between the ages of 3 weeks - 8 months and I have letters of recommendation from each!Additionally, although I have a multitude of experience I do not have any formal training, but I am half Mexican am come from a large extended family where I have been watching, taking care of, and helping with the care of my cousins, nieces, and nephews since I was around 10 years old. Which includes changing diapers, bottle feeding, meals, naptime, and playtime. And the ages I've watched range from infants to 12 years old. The youngest I have babysat/cared for outside of my family is a 3 week old (beginning November 2025-Present) and several 5-month-olds in 2023 and between 2025-2026, both caring for them on my own and also as a mommy's/parents' helper. I am also currently taking an Adult, Child, and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED with the Red Cross this summer and will be getting CPR certified after the completion of the course. I already know the Heimlich maneuver, although the procedure/protocol is different for children not yet walking and under the age of 1 year. I'd be happy to discuss my experience further or answer any questions.
