About Leah

Hi families! I'm Leah! I'm outgoing, nurturing, and adventurous, with eight years of childcare experience from newborns to preteens, including children with special needs. I started nannying at 15 and spent all four years of high school in a preschool program, eventually becoming a teacher's assistant! I recently graduated from the University of Oregon with a Psychology degree focused on child development and infancy. I love watching kids grow, encouraging their independence, and planning fun, educational activities! Outside of work, I enjoy golfing, Pilates, painting, traveling, and spending time with my poodle, Teddy. I'm moving to NYC in January 2027 and seeking a long-term, full-time position with a formal contract, guaranteed hours, PTO, paid holidays, and sick leave. I'm happy to help with errands and household tasks, too! Above all, I hope to build a genuine connection with a family and become someone both parents and children can trust and depend on!
