Hello I’m Mariah, a young but seasoned babysitter with nearly a decade of hands-on experience and a background in elementary education. As a dedicated teacher, I bring a wealth of knowledge in child development and learning strategies to my babysitting sessions. Committed to fostering a fun and stimulating environment while ensuring safety and well-being. From epic storytelling sessions to arts and crafts extravaganzas, I'm here to ignite your child's imagination while keeping them safe and happy CPR and First Aid certified.

Mariah is amazing! She’s so kind, on time and great with my daughter. My daughter gravitated to her right away. She will definitely be my go to when I’m in need of care in the future.

Booked by 5 families in Pittsboro, NC

Hi parents! My name is Megan, and I’ve been in childcare since 2005. I studied Early Childhood Education, Library Science, and completed Newborn Care Specialist training. Over the last couple decades, I have worked with ages 0-12, and some adults. Most of my experience lies in early childhood, as I typically begin nannying during infancy and prepare them for pre-school. I'm CPR/AED/1st Aid certified, have experience with food allergies, seizures, behavioral disorders, chronic disorders, and speech delays. I am comfortable administering medication and driving with children in my care. I practice gentle parenting, sleep training, a variety of language techniques, and strive to work together with family/parents/children as a true part of the team. Just a bit about me-- I love yoga, gardening, and hanging with my partner and our four critters (so I’m very pet friendly!). I'm a lover of books, music, and arts & crafts. I love taking those things outside for a little sunshine, and implementing them into childcare. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect!
