Leisha is a mature kind loving person, we are so glad we found her, she came recommended to us from a friend who has Leisha a their babysitter on ad hoc basis. To be honest we were not keen on the idea of leaving our 6 children with anyone but family. When our friend recommended Leisha we were very hesitant as we didn't know her, she came to meet us before hand to see if the children would get on with her and it's safe to say from the minute she walked through the door she put us completely at ease. The children love her and wanted to know when me and daddy were going out so Leisha could look after them, she stayed with us for 45 minuets that day as the children wouldn't let her leave. She read them stories, played with them and even managed to get our fussy eater child to eat her tea which to us was amazing as out little girl has lots of allergies and food fobias that she will only eat certain food, Leisha asked if she could have a go at gettin her to eat and we thought why not! To our amazement our little ate everything on her plate that night which never happens.
Leisha has been our life saver and has become part of our family and the children love her to pieces. Leish has looked after all 6 of our children who range in age from 4 months to 9'years old on many occasions, we have been able to enjoy some lovely time just the 2 of us knowing our children are well looked after and happy at home. She has got putting 6 children down to a fine art. She actually manages this better then we do :)
We love having Leisha help us out and care for children and can't recommend her enough, she came as a recommendation to and and now we can't recommend her enough!!!
