A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm Leah and I've been nannying in the Chicagoland area now for 9 years. Right now I’m currently a toddler teacher at a preschool but I’m looking to get back into nannying. I have been working with kids since I was 18 - in daycares as well as nannying back home (North Dakota). I love going on adventures with the children I am nannying as well as being super silly/goofy. I believe in a safe, fun, and positive approach when working with children!

"Leah came to our family’s rescue after a bad injury left me bedridden and unable to care for our 4 kids (then ages 2, 4, 6, and 10). With very little instruction, she stepped right in and took over our schedules and routines seamlessly. Leah showed a keen ability to meet each of my children’s individual needs. She loved being active with the kids and was always finding new outings and adventures for them. Although we no longer need a full-time caregiver, Leah continues to babysit for our family often and our kids always look forward to their time with her."
