About Leah

Experience: 9 yrs

Hello! My name is Leah (pronounced like Star Wars) and while I have moved around quite a bit, I am actually from the North Shore are and have been back for about 2. 5 years now. I have been a nanny for the last 5. 5 years. I have experience as a babysitter, as well as a full-time lead toddler teacher (children ages 12-24 months). I graduated with my bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education Unified, trained for teaching children birth through kindergarten including special education. Aside from working with children, I also love animals, crafts, movies, reading and being with good friends. I am absolutely in love with my 2. 5-year-old Shichon puppy, Princess Poppy, who fully lives up to her troll namesake! I look forward to finding a family to build a strong relationship and help them thrive with their little one(s)!
