About Megan
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
My name is Megan. I have my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education, as well as my state teaching license. After some self reflection, I've realized I enjoy the one-on-one connection I get with children through nannying more so than the classroom setting. My nannying philosophy draws from RIE, Montessori, & respectful parenting (I have a toddler of my own). I've primarily worked with infants & toddlers throughout my decade+ long career. I am continually amazed by their curiosity, compassion, intelligence, & energetic awareness! I'm a big believer in natural/unassisted motor development, teaching consent early, giving children space to figure things out on their own, and holding supportive emotional containers for big emotions. Getting outside/going on daily adventures is crucial to me as well (no bad weather, only bad clothes). I treat children with respect, honor their innate wisdom, & do my own internal work so that I can be the most compassionate & loving caregiver possible.

Megan has worked for us intermittently for a few years now, taking on date nights and random days that our full time nanny can’t make it. My 2-year-old triplet boys love her and it’s always a fun treat when Miss Megan gets to come over and play. However, we recently took her with us on an international trip as a “vacation nanny” and when we returned, I told my husband that I might never take another vacation without her again. She really dove right in with us; keeping the boys happy/content on the long plane ride, hanging back at the hotel with one or two of them so my husband and I could get quality time with each, managing the bedtime battle in a brand new place, jumping in during chaotic meals out, even playing “photographer” and getting some adorable shots of both my husband and I with the boys. If she was ever flustered, she certainly didn’t show it. The trip would not have been nearly as enjoyable without her assistance. I can only hope she’ll be able to tag along on our next trip :)
