A little bit about me

Hello,

My name is Leilah. I am currently an elementary special education teacher. As a childcare provider with over five years of experience, I'm passionate about fostering children's growth and development. My patient and calm demeanor, coupled with my creativity and friendly nature, allows me to connect with children and create a nurturing environment.

I prioritize open communication with parents, ensuring that they're informed about their child's day and any issues that arise. My comfort in enforcing household rules ensures a structured and safe environment for the children in my care.

From outdoor sports to board games and educational activities, I enjoy a variety of games that promote learning and fun. With my background in education, I'm capable of providing additional support for children's academic development.

I'm happy to assist with tasks like cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and supervising swimming activities.
