Leah has been wonderful with my little guy! As a first time mom, there are things I don’t always notice right away, but Leah was quick to pick them up and make suggestions, such as changing nipple sizes on the baby bottles and my baby’s latch. There was also a health scare that came up as well and she was quick to notify me something wasn’t right. Unfortunately my financial situation changed from one day to the next, otherwise we loved having Leah with us and hope we can have her back soon!
