Hi! My name is Leah and I'm looking to do some part-time babysitting for any family in need of regularly scheduled or occasional childcare. I just started grad school at Penn and am pursuing my Master of Social Work. I spent the last three years as a Youth Care Worker at a group home in Chicago working with youth who have experienced trauma. I have had years of experiences working with kids of all ages and can provide references upon request! I love being active, doing arts and crafts, playing outside and doing creative activities other than sitting in front of a computer or watching TV. I look forward to hearing from you!

Leah was fantastic! Right on time, and super friendly. I snuck out and my two-year-old just played away, happy as can be. When she left he asked me if she could stay longer!

We were totally comfortable leaving our 21 mo old with Leah. Would love to have her back.

Leah was wonderful! She arrived 5 minutes early, asked all the right questions and we felt very comfortable leaving our 5 mo old in her care!
