About Megan

Experience: 8 yrs

I would describe myself as reliable, flexible, and nurturing. Caring for children is my passion--I love watching them learn, grow, and develop into unique individuals. I believe shaping a better world starts with raising kind, confident children. I began babysitting at 13 and have worked with kids ever since. Growing up in a large family helped develop my natural caregiving role early on. I worked in a daycare for several years before becoming a certified elementary teacher, and I've been teaching fifth grade for four years. I'm currently seeking a summer position where I can support families while also spending time with my son. My strengths include behavior management, staying calm in emergencies, and building strong, trusting relationships to create a safe, structured, and positive environment where children can thrive.

Megan has watched my three children many times over the years and I feel incredibly fortunate to know her. She is dependable, kind, and, most of all, she has our kids safety top of mind. It gives me complete peace of mind knowing my kids are in such capable and caring hands. I highly recommend Megan to any family looking for a trustworthy and wonderful nanny.
