Hi! My name is Megan and I’m 29 years old. I graduated from the University of Maryland in 2019. I live in Manassas, VA. I’ve enjoyed babysitting kids of all ages since I was 13. I work full time during the week, and I’m looking to make some extra spending money on weekends and weeknights. In my free time, I like to run, cook and read. I have my own car and I’m willing to travel into DC and to nearby suburbs in MD and VA. I look forward to meeting you!
“Megan is an outstanding babysitter, she's extremely patient with our kids. we have a fussy 1 year old and she handled both of them well. I highly encourage you to hire her for your caregiving needs!”
Hello Parents, I am 36yrs with 10+ years experience with children/pets. I have been working with kids since I was 14 years old and it is a huge passion of mine. I am looking forward to jumping back in for a while. I am a firm believer in routine, consistency, and creating an environment to thrive and learn. I know some American ASL, and I have a Montessori approach to the way I go about working with kids. I mainly prefer to work with infants and toddlers, but I have experience in all age ranges. I am comfortable with all traditional nanny duties, transporting children, house management/organization, elderly assistance, and pet sitting. I also have experience with special needs children including high anxiety, speech delay, autism and ADHD needs.
I’m a nurturing, patient, and dependable caregiver with 20+ years of experience working with children and families. My background in education and psychology helps me understand children’s developmental needs, build trust, and create safe, engaging environments. I’m attentive, organized, compassionate, and comfortable caring for infants through school-age children. I enjoy reading, singing, creative play, learning activities, and helping children feel loved, secure, and confident.
