About Lea
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
FUN, LOVING, ENERGETIC WOMAN looking to care for infant(s) and/or preschoolers. CPR & First Aid cert (ex-911 dispatcher for 8 yrs) Available any hours, evenings/weekends too. I'm 45 yo who has been caring for children full time for 10+ yrs. Presently caring for a newborn and 2 1/2 yr old girl full-time since first child was born, however the family is relocating out of state the end of June. Before that, I spent 3 1/2 years full time for a family with 2 children starting when the first was born. I cared for 2 different sets of twins from newborns until the age of 18 months. I love to do crafts, play outside, go on walks, etc. I try to find fun ways to teach little ones with lots of activities and not too much screen time. I continually read articles/books on the care and emotional well-being of children. I look forward to hearing from you!

Lea has watched our now nearly 3 year-old daughter since she was several weeks old, and our daughter absolutely adores her. Lea always comes up with creative games to play while also helping our daughter to foster her independence. Lea cares about raising kids in a positive, nurturing way and dedicates time to reading books about things like helping infants/kids get good sleep, potty training, and managing tough toddler behaviors. She is kind and always punctual. We’d love to have her stay with our family if we weren’t moving out of state!
