About Leah

Experience: 10 yrs

I grew up and started working at a Bible camp, called Camp Fairwood. I have worked in the kitchen, cleaned, and was a lifeguard. Once I turned 18, I started counseling. Since then, I have worked at two camps. Most counselors supervise a cabin of 8-10 children 24 hours 5 days a week. I mentored Senior High, instructed crafts, educated K-2nd grade, tutored Jr. High, and led activities for children of all ages. I also have experience working with two different day cares (in Iowa and Wisconsin), and I have been a nanny to a number families and an au pair over seas in Luxembourg. I enjoy building into children's lives and seeing them develop different skills, whether that is infants or teens. I'm the past, I have been certified in CPR, AED, First Aide, and lifeguard training. I am a water color artist. I can play piano and enjoy many different styles of music. I love keeping busy, making crafts, or taking walks.

Leah is an outstanding individual. She is faithful, caring, and compassionate. She worked for my wife and me for two summers and provided quality work. She pays attention to detail and completes the tasks assigned her. She is great with children and interacts with them in appropriate ways. I highly recommend Leah!
