Meghan is fantastic! She has professional experience with children, and comes from a family of educators. Her understanding of kids is spot-on; she sussed things about our child immediately that showed both insight and empathy. She's a child whisperer. Meghan is also fun and flexible, able to switch from sporty and outdoorsy to scholarly and artistic. Most importantly, perhaps, she's the definition of responsible, grounded, and sensible. We trusted her completely. Strong recommend!
