About Shaleah
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
My name is Shaleah I've been taking care of kids since I was 6 working in my church's nursery. Overall, I've been working with kids for 19yrs! Trained in 1st Aid and CPR, with extra online training classes from ECE. Some years a teacher for Wicked Cool for Kids too, so if you want your kids learning some fun science, I can help, or if you need them to learn a second language, I've been taking Mandarin for 10yrs also. I've been babysitting since 12yrs and daycare work as a teacher for 8. I love teaching, learning but most of all, having fun. I pride myself on being a kind of teacher and sitter, without the magical school bus or an awesome lizard friend though. I'll get one someday! I hope my years of experience and personality shine through especially, for you to consider me. Thank you and have a wonderful day!

Finding and hiring Shaleah was the best thing we have done. She picks my 8 year-old daughter up from school every day during the week, and works with her on her homework and reading until either my husband or I get home from work. If they have time, Shaleah will take her to our neighborhood playground weather permitting, or she'll do arts and crafts activities and baking. She does light housework for us, which we never even asked for, and has offered to do more. Most importantly, Shaleah has the most wonderful and positive disposition. My daughter absolutely adores her. We are so lucky to have found her.
