A little bit about me…

Hello! My name is Morgan, and I’m a 20-year-old college student based in New York City, currently earning a Bachelor of Music in Musical Theatre. I’ve been working with children since I was 16, beginning as a summer camp counselor and continuing through babysitting over the years. I am Red Cross certified and also hold a babysitting certification, so safety and responsibility are always a priority for me. I’m a big animal lover (especially dogs!), I love all things music, and in my little free time you’ll often find me baking. I truly enjoy creating a warm, caring, and positive environment for children, and I would love the opportunity to become a supportive and trusted part of a family’s daily life.
