Hey there! I'm Leah, a recent Georgia State University grad with a huge passion for kids and a love for adventure! I'm taking a gap year before heading to law school and currently living in vibrant Midtown with my two rescue cats, Astro and Pluto. I aspire to become an attorney specializing in environmental or child advocacy law. In my free time, I love reading, gardening, cooking, and volunteering for dog walking shifts and fostering kittens through Mostly Mutts Animal Shelter. I've been working with kids since I was 12, starting as the go-to neighborhood babysitter. My experience includes roles as an Infant Caretaker, Toddler Teacher, and Assistant Pre-school Teacher at The Primrose School. Over the last 4 years, I've babysat for 7 wonderful families and currently help out 9 families with their occasional babysitting needs. I'm fully vaccinated, AED certified, and CPR certified for pediatric, adult, and pet care. Read more I'm also first aid certified and a certified lifeguard. I speak fluent English, conversational Spanish, and know baby sign language. I'm currently learning American Sign Language. I'm a non-smoker, have my own transportation, and absolutely love pets. My flexible schedule means I'm ready to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, and running errands. I excel at creating fun, developmentally appropriate play activities and crafts, helping with potty training, and introducing children to Spanish and Sign Language. I'm upbeat, patient, reliable, and love spending time with kids. I can't wait to meet your kiddos and have a great time babysitting!

Leah has worked with our family for more than a year. She is great with all ages! She knows exactly how to interact with our 2-year-old while redirecting our 4-year-old. She is always responsible and is also really great at organizing. She always makes sure toys are cleaned up (most of the time better than they were before).
