Hi Belinda, would it be possible to use a larger around screw?
If you remove your problem screw now, fill the hole entirely with wood filler and then insert the screw back in before the wood filler dries that might just hold too as long as you wait a good 24 hours to make sure the wood filler has a change to really set up.
I have glued toothpicks in the hole where a screw has pulled out....when glue is dry around the toothpicks, insert screw.
Fill the screw holes with a piece of wood, match stick, toothpicks with wood glue. Let it dry. Then screw the leg in.

Perhaps wood glue and sand or sawdust might possibly accomplish the same thing?
