About Megan
Experience: 8 yrs
Hi! I'm an energetic, outgoing, and dependable person who loves caring for both kids and animals. I'm currently a Master of Public Health candidate at Boston University, where I study environmental and brain health. I also lead community landscaping and native-plant projects, including Brighton's first Miyawaki micro-forest through BU's 2024 Climate Innovation Grant. I've been caring for children and pets since I was 12, from helping raise my younger siblings to nannying, dog sitting, and cat care for local families. I'm CPR/AED certified and Suicide Prevention certified, and I bring that same focus on safety, communication, and empathy to every job-whether it's after-school care, walks and feedings, or tending a garden. Alongside childcare and pet sitting, I offer landscaping and native-plant design services using sustainable, low-maintenance methods that support pollinators and urban green space. Based in Brookline / Newton / Brighton / Greater Boston

She is the best sitter hands on very attentive. My kids loved her very hard working with any task aside from kids. I’ve had many sitters and she was literally the best one. I’m at my other house and can’t find anyone like her. Genuine soul.
