About Leah

I was born to nurture. I feel most useful and fulfilled when I am taking care of other people. I was a nanny to two little girls for about five years, and then I worked in an assisted living facility, taking care of six residents for two years during college. I enjoy the companionship of care-giving the most. Many of the residents were elderly and had no families, so I ultimately stepped into that role for many of them. They became my family. I am proud of my experience with taking care of others, and the bonds that have been formed over the years.

What makes me a great caregiver, is the love and passion I have to be one to care for another. I enjoy doing it, im not in it for the paycheck, I do it because it makes me feel good knowing I can help someone. I always grew up wanting to help others in one way or another.. I enjoy the smiles I can give someone simply by being there to assist them, knowing someone enjoys my care makes my heart swell. My biggest personal achievement I am proud of, is, my son.

Everyone needs help from time to time. I like being that for someone, and hopefully making their day nicer, too. It's the little things that make a bad day better. I am not certified, but I have had multiple jobs as a caretaker, skills coach, and mental health aide. I have experience in most skills requested, and am very comfortable performing all care needs. I am open to expanding my skills, and will put in the extra effort and research needed. Ive had training in most everything listed, including lifting, mobility, CPR, and first aid. For anything else, please feel free to ask! Thank you.
