About Leah

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

From a young age I started babysitting children, many summers as a camp counselor and art teacher. Knowing that my passion was to teach children and love for art, I became a certified art teacher and taught in public school for many years before having my kids. Taking a maternity leave I raised my two children, now 18 and 20 years old, always babysitting neighborhood kids of all ages With over 30 years of teaching, babysitting and raising children, I am a very reliable, creative and confident person with experience caring for children from infant to teenager. I am organized, can easily multitask and be willing to do additional tasks in the home, errands and driving. As a single mother of two young adults who are in college and moved out, I am looking to fill my time working with children, help others and make extra money. I am currently a substitute for NYS Pre K program in public school. I am also CPR and First Aid certified.

Leah is incredible with our almost 5 month old son. She is on time everyday, sticks to his schedule, plays with him, feeds him, gets him down for his naps, does his laundry, and keeps up with cleaning bottles and pump parts. She has been such an assert to our family and we'd be lost without her. Not only is she trustworthy, but my son loves her and I know he is in great and loving hands each day.
