Booked by 7 families in Buxton, OR

Hello my name is Meg. I have 15+ years of baby sitting, 5 years of teaching, and 10 years of pet experience. I have worked with children from the age of infancy to 14. I have a degree in ECE and some SPEDU credits, but have decided to go back to college to change my major and become a child psychologist. I loved working with my students in a classroom setting, but feel that my skills are more necessary to help children develop individually. At this moment my availability is very flexible so take advantage of it while you can!

“Meg was great with our 5 month old. She has a fun personality and was very professional. ”

Morgan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello :) My name is Morgan, and I’m here to offer a variety of services for you and your family. I have more than ten years of experience caring for seniors, infants, toddlers, and children of all ages. I adore animals and have been working with cats, dogs, chickens, and horses my entire life. My empathy, perception, and eye for detail allows me to connect and build relationships based on trust and genuine understanding. I love to cook, and pride myself on my timeliness and organizational skills. I’ve helped care for my own grandmother with dementia, as well as many other seniors with a variety of needs and medical requirements. I have experience assisting children with special needs, provided tutoring, and engaged in medication management. I have also worked with children in a clinical setting as a behavioral health paraprofessional. I have my own vehicle, and am happy to run errands if needs be. I’d love the opportunity to discuss your family’s individual needs and help in any way I can!
