Learning, sport and care belong in the same family conversation.
Leer is a South African platform for families exploring tutoring, sports coaching and childcare, and for the people and organisations providing that support.
The week contains more than one kind of need.
A family may be thinking about schoolwork one day, a sports activity the next and childcare around other commitments. Those decisions share practical questions: who is involved, what support is suitable and what needs to be agreed.
Leer brings these areas into one place while keeping the services distinct. Choosing a tutor should not require the same conversation as choosing an au pair.
Clear information makes the next conversation easier.
This website explains the main service areas and provides practical guides for families. The aim is to help you describe a need, ask relevant questions and prepare for a first session or handover.
The guides offer general decision support. Provider checks are carried out by Leer's trust team and shown by name on each provider's profile; the guides themselves do not confirm a service, location, price or available time.
Every participant has a different part to play.
Families choose the support they are considering. Providers describe the work they can offer. Schools, academies, preschools and provider businesses bring additional coordination responsibilities.
Leer is the platform connecting these journeys; the people delivering a service have their own roles and responsibilities. Read the information for your role before taking the next step.
A considered choice needs specific information.
A service category, organisation name or attractive description cannot answer every question about suitability. Ask about relevant experience, clarify the proposed work and check the details of an arrangement.
Profiles show each completed check by name. If something isn't listed as verified, it hasn't been verified.
