A little bit about me

My name is Leah, I spent my primary years in South Georgia but have been in the bay city area for about 4 years. I am 19 years old and the oldest daughter of 6 siblings, so there’s not much that I can’t manage. I have been a babysitting for other families for about 4 years and I am currently a lunch aid at a local elementary school! I also attended the Bay Arenac ISD skill center and completed full coursework in the early childhood development program. I am able to provide light housekeeping, pet care, tutoring, and meal preparation amongst childcare. I am CPR/AED certified, first aid certified, fire safety certified, and have completed many trainings: listed on my resume. I am also conscious discipline trained and I have studied strategies to promote healthy social and emotional development in early childhood. Feel free to contact me anytime, I look forward to meeting new families!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have nannied consistently for multiple families within the last 4 years, volunteered in the Bay ISD preschool, and I am currently a lunch aid at a local elementary school!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love to find creative and active ways to help children learn without making it into a chore. For example with elementary age children games like “mathsketball” are a good way to combine math into a fun activity!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is modeling a peer relationship with the children and teaching them ways to progress socially by displaying a healthy relationship with them as well as their families!

My experience with special needs children...

I have 4 years of experience with a little girl with special needs, I assemble her leg braces, carry her when needed, and provide emotional support when things get tough!

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite family moments have definitely been receiving the handmade gifts, school photos, and birthday party invitations. I love when children know they have a friend in me!
