Hi! I’m Lela! I’m a full time nanny looking for my next family! I have been nannying children of all ages for over 10 years. That includes a paid lead childcare position at a daycare for two years. Education and learning is also a very big part of my practice. I make sure to incorporate fun, creative and cognitive stimulating experiences and activities! Children's laundry, dishes, meal prep, and light cleaning come with my services as well. References and resume provided upon request.
