No, they do not. As with any other turtle, the mother lays the eggs and heads back to the water. The parents leave without even knowing if their young survive or not. Other than laying and burying the eggs, there is no parental involvement.

How do leather back sea turtles take care of their babies?

They don't. Sea turtles of all species do not care for their babies. Pregnant females locate a safe beach, usually the beach they were born on, and come ashore at night. They dig a hole in the sand with their hind flippers and lay their eggs in the hole, then they cover the eggs in sand. The turtles then pack the sand down by belly-flopping on it several times, and after that, they move around in circles to scatter the sand and make it difficult for predators to follow their footprints. If there are many turtles in the area, they will most likely skip the circling step. After that, they leave. They will return next year to lay more eggs, but they do not care what happens to the baby turtles. Baby turtles climb out of the sand and dash for the water. Many of them will be eaten by predators on the way there, and few baby turtles survive the year. Very few sea turtles reach adulthood. Once they reach the water, they scatter out into the ocean. Their mother will likely never see her babies, and she would not recognize them if she did. She does not consider caring for the babies, as this is not an instinct sea turtles have. As a general rule, reptiles do not care for their young beyond laying the eggs in a safe place. There are a very few exceptions.

How do lizards look after their babies?

Lizards don't exactly look after their babies. When a baby lizard hatches out of its egg it is already self-sufficient, so it doesn't need an adult to look after it.
