Megan $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I am a certified school counselor and work at a small title 1 school in downtown Phoenix. I am going on my 6th year at the school and work with ages ranging from preschool-8th grade. In my teenage and college years, I also babysat and nannied for multiple families in those age ranges. I love children and am always excited for hands on learning, playtime, crafts, and as a counselors love to focus on the social emotional aspect as well. I like to live a healthy and active lifestyle and tend to stay off technology and screens for as much as I can. I am really looking to connect with families that need more weekend care or care during school breaks! I am very loyal, responsible, and passionate about my career and would love to support more children and families in need!
