Experience: 10 yrs
Hi there! I have a ton of experience with children; I have three grown and I've been nanny to 20+ children over the years. I taught three children to read at very young ages. In addition, I home-schooled two children for three years and was a Substitute and Special Needs Teacher in International Schools. I'm also TEFL certified and worked at a Sylvan Learning Center teaching reading and math. I've also been a School Secretary and a Personal Assistant. I had my own small tech company so I'm very good with technology too. With children, I stress the importance of nature appreciation, physical activity, good nutrition, and limited screen time. I have spotless criminal and driving records. Available for long-term, last-minute, or short-term.

Leah was wonderful with our son! From the moment she started, it was obviously she had a lot of experience with children. She did a great job of handling all the energy a toddler has by having a slate of fun activities for him to do and a lot of patience. She watched our son while we were potty training him and she was a huge help in the process. We look forward to hiring Leah again!
