Hi i'm Leah! I I currently am a head coach at a gymnastics gym. I have worked in elementary school as an aide along with being a dance teacher, choreographer and musical theater teacher. I also have been babysitting for about 24 years. I most recently was with a 10 year old boy from the time he was in second grade through part of fifth grade after school five days a week. I love working with kids. From 2013-August 2016 i was with a family 5 days a week in Ardsley, NY. Their children are now 12 and 16. Before that I was with 2 other children 3 days a week. Last summer I spent 3 days a week having “camp” with a 3rd grade boy and it was so much fun!I am able to prepare snacks, drive to and from activities, car-pool, homework help, light clean up, and of Read more course have fun with art, reading, dance, and other activities . I am fully comfortable with dogs as I have one myself but unfortunately am allergic to cats. I have always worked primarily with children 2 1/2 years and up but do have experience with younger. I am fun, energetic, dedicated, kind and caring and hoping I sound like the right match for you and your family.
