Experience: 20 yrs
With 15+ years of experience as a nanny, babysitter, tutor, homeschool educator, and creative mentor, I bring a well-rounded approach to childcare. I'm college-educated, highly organized, and deeply committed to conscious communication and holistic development. My background spans the arts, experiential education, nature exploration, and community resilience, with a personal dedication to sustainable, organic living. While experienced with children of all ages, I particularly enjoy the elementary and middle school years. I'm a patient, attentive, and imaginative caregiver who prioritizes meaningful connection, emotional security, and enriching experiences. I strive to be more than a caretaker, serving as a trusted role model, creative collaborator, and enthusiastic guide. I'm seeking a consistent position with a family whose values align with mine. I'd love to connect and share more about my experience and approach!
Words can not describe how beyond grateful we are to have Leila with our family this year. She is assisting in homeschooling our 3 children across 3 different grades and ability levels. I am most impressed by how much thought she puts in to tailors the kid's learning plan to their individual strengths and weaknesses. The other part that I am truly grateful for is that she ensures our children understand the concepts she is teaching and she does not just check work off for the sake of it being done. She is very thoughtful and deliberate in her care of our children.
