Hi, My name is Leah! I have a few years of working with children in a behavioral therapy setting, and now a few months of working with children who were involved with DCFS. I am super kid-friendly and energetic. I know lots about paw patrol and coco-melon! I have a niece and nephew who are twins & 2 years old who I also used to take care of as well. While working as a Behavioral Therapist, I actually babysat/nannied for a few different families while also in school getting my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology (Graduated in 2020). I currently am a Graduate Student but am debating on taking a break from graduate school to gather my barings before continuing, but need to support myself because I live alone in the city. I grew up in a religious family, but I myself am spiritual (but like Christian Spiritual). Music, or art Read more of any kind, is really important to me. I also enjoy cooking, crafting, and just relaxing when I can. I also have a little Multi-poo I rescued last summer but she currently resides with my family in the suburbs. I absolutely love animals (reptiles and amphibians I admire from a distance, and I, unfortunately, am not a fan of bugs--working on butterflies though!). Any other questions you may have feel free to ask! :)
