Hello! My name is Leah, and I am seeking part-time nannying opportunities in Washington DC, September through May! This summer I worked as a public programs educator at the Children’s Museum of Manhattan, focusing on art education for children ages 0-10, and this fall I am starting my senior year of college at the George Washington University, majoring in art history. I am very child-centered in my approach to nannying — I aim to meet each child where they are and respond with care, intention, and specificity. I recognize the significance of a nanny’s role in children’s lives and work to provide consistent care, emotional support, and compassionate behavioral management that is attuned to each family’s values and culture. I have worked in many different childcare settings—as a babysitter, summer camp assistant director, preschool literacy educator, afterschool tutor, and dance teacher—and each job has uniquely informed my approach to working with children and families. I especially love engaging with children ages 2-8 through art projects and creative play activities that support literacy and open up space for self-expression and connection! I am looking for a family to consistently work for over the next academic year. If I sound like a good match for your family, please reach out, and I would love to connect further!I am trained in adult and pediatric first aid, CPR, AED, medication administration, and concussion intervention.

I am also happy to help with light housekeeping related to the children, children’s laundry, meal prep, and keeping play areas tidy.Families describe me as dependable, patient, organized, and trustworthy. I understand the importance of finding someone you can confidently leave your children with, and I take that responsibility seriously.
