About Megan

Experience: 10 yrs

I've supported families through sleepless nights, toddler tantrums, school transitions, and teenage growing pains. I take a Montessori-inspired approach with young children, fostering independence, curiosity, and emotional awareness through gentle structure and mutual respect. It's not just about watching kids; it's about helping them grow. Throughout college, I balanced a full schedule while working in childcare, hospice, elder care, and with individuals in the disabled community. That experience shaped how I show up: calm under pressure, quick on my feet, and deeply empathetic. I know how to adapt to high-stress moments, and I'm equally present during the joyful ones. I'm highly organized, emotionally intelligent, and I anticipate needs before they become problems. What I'm looking for is a role where I can offer meaningful support. I want to help people breathe easier, knowing someone competent and caring is in their corner.
