A little bit about me

Hi there!
My name is Lea (like Leah).

I'm a Christian and my values and convictions will certainly influence how I plan to help raise your children alongside you. To me, practically this means setting high expectations of how to behave and interact with others, and yet providing so much grace, love, and mercy when they inevitably fall short of those expectations. Each child is so unique in the guidance, support & care they’ll require but I’ll always aim for gentle, loving, and yet firm, clear guidance (correction when necessary) to help them navigate life's inevitable challenges. Unless you request otherwise, I plan to pray with and over them, teach them biblical stories and values, attempt to protect their innocence and help you guide them along the best path. However, you as the parent have the greatest influence on your child’s upbringing, faith and worldview and I will honor and respect your wishes in however you wish to raise them and I will follow your lead.
