A little bit about me
My name is Meg and I am hoping to find a family to bond and create great memories with! I currently just finished a writing program with Second City and spend a lot of time comedy writing and creating art in my free time. My philosophy on relationships with the families I work with is based strongly on mutual respect and communication with the parents and love and patience with the children. I find it important to make sure I am doing new enriching and enjoyable activities constantly and find so much joy in introducing the kids to new experiences. I am also very willing to help run errands, help clean, and keep things organized.

A little bit about me
Hello Parents/Legal Guardians,
My name is Daniela and I am more than excited to get to know/care for your children. I have many years of childcare experience, most of it from taking care of the kids from my neighborhood plus one year of working at a day school. I have made incredible connections with most of the kids that have been under my care. I personally like taking the time to get to know each kid so that I can provide them with the attention and care that they need.
As for meal prepping- I do light cooking here and there. I am Mexican, so most of the meals I make are from my culture. Although, I am willing to learn and adjust to any dietary needs your child may have!
