About Leah

I'm a warm, grounded, emotionally intelligent caregiver who helps children feel safe, confident, and understood while supporting households in running smoothly. Families often describe me as calm, proactive, and someone who cares for the whole family-not just the children. My approach blends the energy of a camp counselor with the steadiness of a child-development guide: playful, attentive, and deeply respectful of children's emotions. My core philosophy is simple-big feelings are okay; disrespect is not. I guide behavior through connection, clear boundaries, and consistency. I have experience as a long-term nanny, pre-K teacher, and family assistant, and I'm especially comfortable with toddlers through early elementary. I also support families with meal prep, errands, organization, and maintaining a peaceful household rhythm. Part-time schedule preferred. Excellent local references available.
