Hi there! My name is Meryn. While I am currently living in Michigan, I am planning to move to Columbia in early August. I have been babysitting for more than 10 years and I have experience with kids from infancy to teenagers. I have driven kids to school, prepared meals, and taken care of bath time and bedtime. I also offer creative entertainment, such as crafts, reading, and games. I was a camp counselor with all ages. I have experience with people with developmental disabilities and used to be a lifeguard. Currently I am working as a foster care case manager, so safety is very important to me. I have a reliable car and absolutely love going on fun adventures! I can't wait to get to know you and your sweet kiddos.
Meryn looked after our 9 month old son until he was 13 months old. She was brilliant with nap time, keeping the house tidy, meal prep, assisting with baby led weaning, bottle feeds, diaper changes and light house keeping. She made all activities fun and exciting for him, dance parties were a regular for them! She would send updates through out the day to keep us informed. Meryn was great with communication, punctual, reliable and trust worthy. Would highly recommend her to any family!
