Hi! My name is Leeyah and I am 20 years old. I am currently pursuing a degree in Occupation Therapy. I have been working with children since I was 12 years old because its what I love to do. I have years of experience with teaching, tutoring, teaching assisting, and of course babysitting and being a counselor in many day camps. In my Jewish community, children were always a major part of my life. What I've learnt is that a child's happiness and well being, mentally and physically is more important than anything. I am certified in CPR (for infants and adults), Health and Safety for children in Preschool, mental health training (in relation to COVID-19) and suicide prevention. Babysitting or being a nanny during my spare time would be my ideal job while in college! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
