A little bit about me

I am a devoted Lead Nanny and early developmental specialist who brings equal parts clinical-level expertise, proactive structure, and genuine warmth into your home. My foundation in caregiving began at age 15 assisting my mother, a postpartum doula, which instilled in me a deep, intuitive attunement to newborns, infants, and mothers. In my professional career, I don't just supervise children—I step in as a proactive partner to take complete ownership of daily routines, physical milestones, and whole-child wellness. Beyond my direct work with families, I serve as a Lead Nanny who supervises and trains over 65 nannies in early childhood best practices, and I am the founder of Shekinah House, a non-profit dedicated to female empowerment. When you welcome me into your home, you gain a fierce advocate for your child’s safety, health, and happiness.

HI my name is Leslie! I’m looking forward to babysitting. I’m 15 years old but I do have experience taking care of my now 5 year old sister.

But as of right now I get out of school at 3:12 so if babysitter wanted I would love to be your babysitter!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Sarah I am 24 years old, live in north Phx. I am originally from Chicago IL, where I grew up and got my early childhood education degree. I worked as a lead teacher in a couple daycares, infants and 2 year olds. I then nannied for a kindergardener and preschooler for a few months, until moving to AZ where I became a nanny for a 4 month old. They decided to have family come and take care of baby. So I moved on, taking a break from childcare I currently work for Service King. I really would like to get back into my nanny roots, and use my knewledge to help shape and teach children, because that is my true passion in life!
