Hi, I'm Megan. I'm a writer and experienced nanny and babysitter looking for part-time or occasional jobs in Westchester or Manhattan! Previously, I was a nanny for a sweet 2 year old, working five days a week with him doing snacks, lunch, nap time, and lots of playtime and outdoor exploring. And I’ve been a daily after school/after camp babysitter for kids ages 8-12. I’ve also worked as a group teacher at an after school program, caring for kids in kindergarten through fourth grade. I've been babysitting since I was a teenager—through high school, college, and grad school. I have experience with kids aged 10 months-12 years, and I love crafts, games, and playing sports with kids. I’m also certified in CPR, anaphylaxis response, and school-age child health and safety. In my spare time I enjoy tennis, visiting museums, and bingeing tv. I'm looking forward to meeting new families -- please contact me if you have any questions!

Megan was warm, professional and clearly very experienced with caretaking for children.

I love dogs! I enjoy walking them and playing games with them. I even chef up dog food and dog treats. I’m also willing to help train your pet or administer medication. I appreciate notes or rules for your pet behaves. I don’t take dogs over 30 pounds - small breeds in general.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
