About Meagan

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi I'm Meagan, I am a person who is passionate about teaching and caring for young children from infants through age 8. I am a creative and active person who enjoys helping kids explore the world through art, music, outdoor activities and martial arts (capoeira). I enjoy watching kids explore the world around them and conquer the challenges life puts on their paths. My care taking style is play based because I believe kids experience the world best when they are actively engaged in playing, exploring and using their imaginations to create new experiences for themselves. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask me. I look forward to speaking with you soon! Respectfully, Meagan

Meagan has provided after-school care for our 5-year-old son since August. We highly recommend her! Meagan has taken the time to get to know our son well and relates to him as a whole person. She takes his wants and needs seriously while firmly and lovingly holding the boundaries and rules we've set. Our son trusts her and loves spending time with her, and we trust that she reinforces our rules when we're not around. Meagan is also incredibly creative and thoughtful about how she spends their time together. She has great ideas for crafts, enrichment work, and fun places to play. She has been proactive about arranging playdates with our son's friends and also introduced him (and us!) to capoeira. Our son takes weekly classes now (which Meagan takes him to) and has learned a ton. She's loving and generous with our son, taking him out for the occasional treat when he has something to celebrate and helping him make cards and gifts for special occasions like Mother's Day. She is very thoughtful about screen time and makes sure to balance any TV watching with plenty of other enriching activities. We also really appreciate that Meagan is organized and proactive about her schedule; she always tries to communicate the need for time off with as much advance notice as possible, and she's been very flexible with us when we've needed to change our schedule at the last minute. Overall, our family has loved working with Meagan this last year and we strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a highly capable and fun babysitter or nanny.
