Experience: 10 yrs
As a caregiver, my passion lies in nurturing children's growth and development, leaving a positive impact on their lives. With over a decade of experience, I've had the privilege of caring for children of all ages. I feel that creativity, through art and music, helps children to flourish and grow. I also love spending plenty of time with them in the outdoors. I am fluent in ASL and Spanish. I have been able to see many infants communicate their needs before they can talk through sign language. Which is amazing! It also helps toddlers a great deal when they are feeling frustrated. I am also a certified Doula and Postpartum Care Specialist. I believe in open communication with you, the parent, and want to be the best possible source of support to you through these exciting chapters. This beautiful journey called parenthood.
I can't say enough wonderful things about Leah—I've seen my son blossom under her care, and I can tell how safe he feels with her. We've been working together for over a year, and she's had a large part in him learning to express himself. She's kind, patient, observant, grounded, and fun. She's always finding ways to help me while he's napping, which substantially cuts down my workload during the week. I always look forward to the days she's here. Any family would be lucky to work with her!
