Hi there! My name is Leah, and I am currently working towards getting my Bachelor's degree in Social Work and Psychology at VU. I have previously worked as a Paraprofessional for children with ASD, and this experience has shaped me to become well-adjusted with handling intense situations with kids that might scare others off. I am easily amused, so whatever your child likes to do as a hobby, play with, or watch on the TV, I will engage in it as well! I love being able to make positive connections with kids of all ages, even if we are together for a short time.
