About Meaghan

Experience: 15 yrs

Hi! I'm Meg--an educator, artist, trained doula, and mama to an energetic toddler. I've been caring for children for over 20 years, from newborns through high school. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, seen, and free to explore through play, creativity, and connection. Whether I'm soothing a newborn, supporting a postpartum family, reading stories, creating art, or heading outside for an adventure, I strive to create a calm, nurturing environment where children can grow with confidence. I'm patient, dependable, CPR-trained, and understand the trust it takes to care for someone else's child. In my free time, I enjoy gardening, making music, reading, and exploring parks and museums with my daughter. I care for every child the way I hope someone would care for my own--with warmth, respect, and genuine love.

Meaghan is strategic, tenacious, and creative. She ran our house when our kids were infants and toddlers. I trusted her with everything and they still have a relationship with her because of the relationship of trust she built. We watched her anticipate problems and solve for them ahead of time while also creating an environment for our kids to explore their curiosity and engage in artistic expression. I wouldn't hire anyone else.
