Special Needs Care in Thorold

| A registered practical nurse who’s compassionate about helping nurturing any developmental delays as well as any physical disabilities and making the child feel as loved /happy as they can possibly be

| I've been doing this for 10+ years. I enjoy the work I do and continue to do so. I plan to retire as a PSW. I have a 2 year old daughter.

| Hello! My name is Leah and I’m a community RN, who does primarily overnight and school shifts. I do however, often have gaps in my schedule (especially during the summer months), and would love to bring in some extra income on my nights off, weekends or even overnights. I am also beginning my training as a doula and would be happy to provide postpartum support, and very low cost birth doula services until I have my full doula certification. I have experience supporting women through labor, delivery& postpartum in both personal and professional situations. I am passionate about women’s health, creating a positive labor/birth experience, and providing whatever support a woman says she needs. Before becoming a nurse, I was a professional nanny and worked in daycares and as a camp counsellor and inclusion worker, supporting individuals with disabilities. My medical training means I am able to provide a level of care for children/teens and dependent adults, that other care providers cannot. I have extensive experience with trach/vent dependent kiddos, O2 therapy, suctioning, ostomy care, tube feeds via pump or gravity and more. I look forward to chatting with you about your families unique needs and seeing if we are a good fit.
