Hi! I’m Layla, a graduate student at the University at Buffalo with several years of hands on childcare experience, from caring for infants and toddlers to managing school mornings, homework, meals, activities, bath time, and bedtime for older children. I’ve cared for multiple children at once, worked with children with autism and different communication and sensory needs, and provided both occasional babysitting and consistent care for families.I’m the kind of sitter who actually engages with kids. I love crafts, baking, reading, outdoor play, music, imaginative games, and finding activities based on what each child genuinely enjoys. I also put a lot of thought into routines and transitions. Whether we’re getting ready for school or winding down for bed, I want kids to feel encouraged, secure, and excited to spend time with me.I also have extensive experience cooking and meal prepping for families. I’ve prepared breakfasts, packed lunches, dinners, snacks, homemade juices, and freezer friendly meals for busy parents. I hold a B.S. in Health Sciences with a background in nutrition, so I’m especially good at making balanced meals that are nutritious without forgetting that kids actually have to want to eat them!I’m CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, and happy to help with light housekeeping, homework, transportation routines, and meal preparation. I’m dependable, attentive, playful, and very comfortable adapting to the routines and expectations already established in your home.I’d love the opportunity to become someone your children are genuinely excited to see and someone you feel completely comfortable leaving them with. 😊

Hi Families! :) My name is Abby M, I’m 23 years old, and I’m currently a graduate student at Teachers College, Columbia University!I’ve always loved being around kids and have been working with them for as long as I can remember. I started as a summer camp counselor for two years, have babysat for families in my neighborhood, and most recently worked as a paraprofessional with children with special needs. That experience taught me so much about patience, compassion, and understanding that every child is different and has their own personality, needs, and way of doing things.I also have three nieces and nephews who are 12, 10, and 8, so being the fun auntie has given me plenty of experience over the years! I genuinely enjoy getting to know kids, finding activities they love, and creating an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and able to be themselves.I’m happy to help with whatever your family needs, whether it’s occasional babysitting, date nights, after-school care, or something more regular. I’d love to get to know your family and hopefully become someone you and your little ones feel comfortable and happy around!
