A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Megan! I have over 10 years of experience working with children ranging in age from 6 weeks to 15 years. Most recently, I worked as a 5th grade English Language Arts teacher, supporting students both academically and emotionally. Before that, I was a full-time nanny for a family with three children—ages 6, 4, and 3 months. My responsibilities included cooking, light cleaning, helping with homework, managing the bedtime and bathtime routine, and driving the kids to and from school, playdates, and extracurricular activities. I’m passionate about creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for kids of all ages.

A little bit about me
Hi I’m Adele! I am a student at Tufts University studying Psychology and Child Studies and Human Development. I have been babysitting since I was 12 and love working with kids of all ages (I’ve primarily babysat kids ages 1-9). I am the middle child of 5 in my family so I’ve been around kids my whole life.
My sister and I also founded a craft camp for local elementary schoolers in 2020 (in California where I lived before college). We ran sessions in the summer and on the weekend. Over 100 children have attended our programs. I love doing craft projects with kids I babysit!
