Hello! My name is Leighla and I have been a professional early childhood educator since December 2019. Before that time I've had experience as a babysitter for ages 4mo to 10 years, however I am open to working with any age group. I enjoy working with children on their development, especially when it comes to early language/literacy skills and social/emotional development. I have my Masters in Early Childhood Services and early language/literacy was my primary focus. I am also adult and child CPR/First Aid certified. I'm a professional artist by heart and trade and have my bachelor's in art. I love teaching new skills to young and old alike, so if your child enjoys art or wants to learn a new skill I'm happy to work with them! I have open availability weeknights after 545 and am usually available anytime weekends. If you have any questions or are interested in Read more my services please contact me and I would be happy to answer them. Have a wonderful day!
