About Leslie

Experience: 9 yrs

Hello! My name is Leslie, I have over 8 years of experience working with children of all ages. I am currently a college student majoring in Liberal Studies with a Teacher Preparation concentration. I am passionate about supporting children's growth and development in a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. I have strong experience helping children reach developmental milestones, encouraging social-emotional skills, supporting cognitive development through age-appropriate activities. I believe children learn best through play, creativity, and consistency, and I am very patient, attentive, and reliable. I take a gentle yet firm approach when it comes to boundaries and expectations, ensuring children feel secure while also learning respect and responsibility. I value open communication with families and strive to support each household's routines, values, and parenting style. I take pride in building meaningful, trusting relationships with both children and parents.

Leslie is an amazing and hard working individual who cares deeply for the well-being of the children in her care. I have had the pleasure of working with her for two years at an after-school program where I am the lead teacher of a TK and Kindergarten classroom. She is reliable and takes initiative to gracefully jump in and help with activities and projects with little instruction. She sets clear expectations with students to create a predictable learning environment that fosters consistency throughout the day. She displays patience with students to support them through difficult transitions or emotions. Her professional and caring attitude builds bonds with students that supports their growth and development. Leslie is an outstanding and irreplaceable teacher.
