Hello, I am a 23 year old male who began babysitting/nannying when I was 12 years old. I have a younger brother who is five years younger than me and that is where my career began. I was in charge of making sure he would complete his homework after school, ate a nutritional snack, and completed any small chores that mom had left for him. While also completing my homework, and chores while both mom and dad attended work. At the age of 14 I then began babysitting my next door neighbor who was several years older then me but has cerebral palsy. I did this on some week days/nights as needed while juggling school, homework, lacrosse practice, and a social life. She required much more hands on attention and care as she was not able to use verbal commands or physical gestures when in need of something. I was Read more responsible for watching her for several hours at a time. Making sure that she was entertained, well fed and hydrated throughout the afternoon/nighttime. I did this as needed by my neighbors for several years up until the age of 18 where I then graduated high school and went into college where I studied psychology and continued my lacrosse career. This helped me understand the adolescent mind and has expanded my knowledge of how they interact at varying ages. I have always enjoyed taking care of others and hanging out with all ages in their own environments sharing laughs and making memories. I have been told many of times that I am amazing with kids and I think it’s because I am just a giant one myself. I don’t necessarily have an age preference in which I like the best. I am more than willing to help with any ages as I have many younger cousins ranging from not born yet, to 9years old. I am versatile in the kitchen and am able to do regular household chores including both inside and outside tasks. I currently work as a landscaper in Rockaway, NJ and as the landscaping season ends I’m looking for something that keeps me busy and fulfilled. As previously stated I was an athlete my whole life so running around with the younger children is no issue at all. I have also owned pets my whole life, two dogs to be exact, so being around animals is not a problem. I am beyond excited for this opportunity and I realize some may be weary as there are not many males who do this but I can assure you if you give me a chance I won’t disappoint! Open to meet in person before hand or even having a phone call to settle any doubts you may have.

Trust & safety
