A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Layla. I’m from New York City and currently a senior in high school. I’ve worked as a lifeguard in luxury penthouses, so I’m trained in safety and emergency response. I also have a background in cheerleading, which helps me bring energy and positivity when working with kids. For the past three summers, I’ve volunteered as a camp counselor, planning activities, leading games, and making sure every child feels included and safe. I truly enjoy working with children and creating a fun, secure environment for them.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Carly, and I’m a student at the University of Georgia spending my summer in New York City. I’m responsible, energetic, and genuinely enjoy working with kids of all ages. I have experience babysitting for families back home and am comfortable helping with everything from playtime and creative activities to homework and bedtime routines.

As a college student balancing academics and extracurriculars, I’ve developed strong time management and communication skills, and I bring that same reliability to babysitting. I love staying active, being outdoors, and finding fun, engaging ways to keep kids entertained while making sure they feel safe and supported.

I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to help with light household tasks, meals, and anything else that makes your day easier. I’d love the opportunity to connect and be a positive, dependable presence for your family this summer!
