About Meg

Experience: 4 yrs

My name is Meg, and I am in my 30s. I live in Slidell, but l will be writing my PhD dissertation full time next year at the University of New Orleans, so I'll be in New Orleans frequently during the work week. Before returning to school, I was a federal employee for almost 10 years. I have an MS in Geology from LSU. My childcare experience includes full-time classroom teaching (9th grade), part-time elementary school teacher's aide, coaching elementary school girls for Girls on the Run (a national social emotional development program that integrates running into the lessons), and leading marine biology summer excursions for high school students and camping trips for children as young as 3 at a dude ranch in Wyoming. I am a fun, patient, and outgoing adult who is extremely dependable (as an older nanny, I have many years of professional obligations under my belt). I hope you will consider hiring me to help serve your family.

Meg and I worked together for the summer of 2026, where we led school tours and camp-outs for students ranging from elementary to high school. She is an engaging educator full of creative ideas. She is highly conscientious about sensory sensitivity and special needs, striking a balance between being supportive and accommodating while encouraging students to challenge themselves. Meg has a real knack for connecting with kids of all ages, who respect her authority while also coming to view her as a friend.
