A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Meghan. I'm 26, a DePaul grad and back home in Oak Park this summer after two years living and teaching abroad in Spain. I've been babysitting locally since I was a young teenager and have experience teaching at a Montessori preschool for one year. I am proficient in Spanish if that is something your family is looking for. Sitting for your child will mean lots of time outdoors, reading stories, making art, going on little day trips and just getting out and showing your child(ren) the world! (For this I also have access to a car.) I would love to meet and work with your family! :)

Cheers, Meghan
