About Meg

Experience: 5 yrs

Hello! Thank you for reading a bit about me - I look forward to learning more about your family's needs! Young children are a huge inspiration to me! They are little Buddhas, keeping all of us mindful of the present moment! :) As a childcare provider, I take a lot of inspiration from Waldorf and Montessori schools approach to engaging children in practical work alongside deep play, supported by clear boundaries. I believe strongly in helping children develop good habits. I'm also a huge screen-free advocate whenever possible! In my care there will be lots of nature/stroller walks, developed rhythms that support your family , and probably a lot of art making or shared cooking if the kids are old enough! I think kids thrive when taking part in family routines and feel a sense of pride when they do. My hope is that I could match with a family who is comfortable with me bringing along my 8-month-old infant daughter some of the time as well. I look forward to meeting with you!

Meg is the absolute best- she’s thoughtful, caring and so involved. As a mother herself, she really understands how important the caretaker role is and you can rest easy knowing your kids are in great and caring hands.
