Hi! I'm Leah! I am a Colorado native, and have lived in Littleton, Fort Collins (go rams!), Golden, and am moving to Colorado Springs for a 12 week clinical rotation for my Doctorate of Occupational Therapy Program! I am a certified nursing assistant, have training as a behavioral therapist, and am passionate about early intervention and infant development. I've worked with school programs, nannied for private families, been a summer camp counselor/director, a mentor for at-risk children, an advocate for children with disabilities, and an early intervention Occupational Therapy intern! I enjoy creating enriching and engaging environments for children of all ages to help boost their social-emotional and physical development. I have a patient and cooperative approach, but also implement boundaries and structure. Some of my previous families would say I am an excellent bottle-washer, exquisite snack maker, memorable crafter, tidy cleaner, excellent joke-teller, and avid communicator!
Leah has been an absolute blessing to have watch my 10 month old boy/girl twins. She started watching them when they were 4 months old. She is extremely well versed with babies and helped so much with baby led weaning. She also did fun sensory activities with them as they got older. She also helped take care of my older kids (10, 8 and 4) and did activities with them or would take them swimming for the day to keep them busy. She was always reliable and went above and beyond to do additional housework. We enjoyed every minute we had with her and wish her the best!
