About Leah
Experience: 10 yrs
I'm a warm, grounded, proactive family assistant and household support professional with experience in leadership, hospitality, childcare, caregiving, and household management. I'm especially good at noticing what needs to be done, creating practical systems, and helping busy homes run more smoothly. With children, I especially enjoy school-age kids and preteens. My approach combines warmth, clear communication, consistency, and respectful boundaries. I love helping kids build confidence, independence, practical life skills, and pride in what they can contribute. I'm particularly interested in family assistant and household support roles where childcare is one part of the bigger picture. I can help with meal prep, errands, laundry, organization, scheduling, household projects, and day-to-day logistics. I'm also available for occasional babysitting, especially with older kids. Excellent local references available.
Most recent review
Leah took wonderful care of our 15-year-old son, N., for three weeks. As French parents sending our son to the United States, placing him in someone else’s care required a great deal of trust, and Leah fully deserved that trust. She picked N. up and drove him all the way to Columbia. During his stay, she made sure he was well fed, safe, comfortable, and included in family life. She gave him the opportunity to enjoy nature, spend time by the river, and experience a healthy break from screens and social media. The children were always active and never bored. Leah communicated regularly with us, which was very reassuring. She also played a major part in helping N. greatly improve his English during those three weeks. We are extremely grateful for everything she did for our son and would highly recommend her to any family looking for someone caring, trustworthy, responsible, and attentive.
