A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Leslie, you can call me Roxanne/Roxy as well both are my name! , and I love working with children. As the oldest sibling in my family, I’ve always been the responsible “big sister,” helping care for and guide younger kids helping with homework and daily tasks. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14! I enjoy creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where children can learn and feel comfortable. In my free time, I love going on nature trails and painting , activities I’m happy to share with kids through outdoor adventures and creative play. I’m currently studying to become a nurse practitioner, so caring for others is truly my passion .I also have experience with pets as I have some myself, including cats and dogs , and can help care for them as well.

A little bit about me
My experience providing care for children has been amazing. I enjoy watching them grow and develop their own personalities and being there to guide them and attend their needs. Every day is a new experience and always something new to discover. I worked for five years as a nanny for twins, they were 6 weeks old when I walked into their lives. I heard their first words and saw their first steps it brought me back to when I raised my own children. I was there for all their needs got to know their unique, fun personalities and enjoyed every moment of it. While they ate, while they played and comforting them when they were upset and even when they didn’t feel too good. My nurturing insticts and fun loving personality creates a great bond between me and children.
