A little bit about me

Hi I am Meg! I am offering childcare and household services. I have been participating in caretaking since I was a young girl and would help my mother with the toddlers Sunday school. When I was 12 I started to babysit very often, at least once a week. This, along with pet care, continued throughout my high school career. I also volunteered with youth programs and my current place of employment, The Mountaineers. In this position I work as an Outdoor Education Coordinator in which I teach hands on curriculum and lead hiking and climbing trips with children ages 6-18. In 2023 I held a position with a family as a family assistant in which I wore many hats. My main roles were transporting the two children, planning and cooking meals, laundry, making appointments and general housekeeping. I love cooking and keeping spaces organized, as well as being outside, which is especially rewarding when I get to share those experiences with young minds.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Liv, and growing up I was a babysitter for much of my teen years, I've worked in after school care, and I helped as a pseudo-parent to my much younger sister. All this has given me a lot of experience with a wide variety of kids, and I think at every age and stage there's something great. As a nanny, I hope to be a consistent, positive influence in a child's life, someone they can trust, who also supports the parent's lead in care for their child. I look forward to getting to know each child's unique personality and interests that I work with, and doing what I can to help them thrive and grow!

*If my profile shows that I am not certified in CPR/First Aid, I am in the process of getting re-certified. I do take health and safety seriously, and I am happy to field questions on my timeline for re-certification.
