Hey my name is Leah and I've been a nanny/babysitter for 12 years now and here is a little of my job history... My first job was watching a 1 1/2 yr old girl. I watched her full time, we played, I taught, I made meals and kept her happy and safe. I worked for this family for 1 year. My second job was watching a 3 yr old boy, 6 yr old girl, and a 9 yr old boy. I watched these children full time weekly and even weekends. I prepared all meals, created activities, took them to sports, got them on and off the bus ,I also helped with homework after school and kept everyone happy and safe.I worked for this family for 2 years. My third job I watched a 3 yr old girl, 7 yr old girl and a 6 yr old boy. I pre pared Read more meals, created activities, took them to do activities, help with light house keeping, helped with homework, get them on and off the bus and keep everyone happy and safe. I started with this family when the boy was just 5 months old, and stayed for 6 years. I started watching children because I love children. I have great patience and kids tend to click with me after just a few minutes of me being around them. I care about their future and want them to be the best they can be as they grow up. I'm fun yet can be serious when needed! I love creating activities where they have fun and learn at the same time. I'm also very responsible...I have a 4 yr old daughter that I raise alone. I Sometimes I bring her with me to work but I also have sitters to watch her if need be... she absolutely loves being around other kids and is a TON of fun ! :)
