A little bit about me
I’m a single 28y/o Grand Rapids native! Grew up in East GR and attended Catholic school K-12. From there I went to GRCC for a few years off and on as a music major but have yet to complete my degree. In between I have had several childcare positions, including Nanny to a sweet 4 year old girl. Working with kiddos is my passion!

A little bit about me
Hi Families! My name is Leah. I'm 22 years old, and I have been nannying since I was 15, and a career nanny for the past four years.
I became an aunt at 8 years old, so nurturing littles has always been important to me. I've nannied up to 4 kids, and also have experience working in a daycare with kids ages 11-0. I have extensive experience with newborns and I am CPR and First Aid certified.
I believe in imaginative play, age appropriate activities and games that support education and growth, fun adventures, lots of outside time, and staying away from screens.
My biggest goal is to give your children the best enriching experience while being looked after and giving parents/guardians the comfort knowing their kids are not only being looked after, but heard, helped, protected, and loved.
