About Leslie
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
My name is Leslie and I am looking for a family that could use my knowledge, experience, and talents! I am a specialized nanny focusing on the development of infants, toddlers, and preschoolers using a balanced approach consisting of play-based, whole child methods. I graduated from Florida State University in 1995 with my Bachelor of Science in Family and Child majoring in Child Development. Prior to nannying, I was an early childhood music teacher for 18 years in multiple organizations such as private, public, and Montessori schools. My services include providing age-appropriate developmental toys, materials and activities using a toy rotation system. Most importantly, I work and communicate very closely with the parents as a team to ensure the child reaches their full potential.

Reviewed on 12/10/2020
Leslie is extremely talented and passionate about early child development. She worked with our daughter, M. daily from 5 months(2/20) through 15 months(12/20). Leslie guided M. through many developmental milestones and phases including; sleeping, the transition to solid foods, mobility, temperament, speech, play and learning. She maintains daily schedules, which provides a structure to excel. Leslie's ability to teach through music and play is an inspiration. She uses songs and instruments to enable mobility, language, awareness and more. She is knowledgeable in age-appropriate, Montessori style learning and is extremely creative with daily activities such as sensory bins that promote motor skills. Leslie's inclination for health and cooking led her to guide M. from bottle feeding through solid introductions. Leslie is kind and compassionate. She has a high degree of integrity and excellent character. She would be a wonderful asset to any family.
