More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
Teaching at a Waldorf nature school really rounded out my many years of Nanny experience. I learned how to relate to and model for young children in new ways, and that someone can have the biggest positive impact on a child by simply being an awesome person, taking care of themselves, and staying focused on play.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Exploring in nature, playing at playgrounds, cooking and baking together, having dance parties, musical enrichment (I have a classical music background and have taught piano and drum lessons in the past), and of course: following the lead of the child! I love supporting their curiosity, and acting as a safe container for them to try new things.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Modeling kindness, authenticity, bravery, resilience, self care, etc.
Children notice everything we do, so I've learned that simply being an individual worthy of being imitated can inspire the children to develop integrity and many other positive attributes.

My experience with special needs children...
Epileptic children, Neurodivergent children (ADHD, Autism, etc)...
The most important part about being a nanny...
While I was nannying in NYC many years ago, I ran into my 10 year old's idol on the subway while off duty (she's a famous fashion designer). I told her about how much her work meant to him, and it lead to planning a day where the 3 of us got lunch, walked around the MET, and picked out some fabrics for him (he was already making his own clothes). His parents were thrilled.
Being able to help a young aspiring fashion designer learn from and meet his favorite fashion designer will always be a unique and special memory!

Part-Time Nanny Available in Asheville, NC: Meg R.
Hey there,
I am a ceramic artist and educator with a passion for making creative spaces. I have been working as a certified and trained in-home care provider since 2016. I am comfortable with children from the ages of 2 months and upwards, and I have experience working with multiples and children with special needs. I am always willing to meet the child and family where they are and grow from there.
I love to spend time outdoors and like to stay moving - I consider myself a self starter. I don't use screen time as play, and would much rather go for a walk to the park, pick up a book from the library, or make up a game.
Looking forward to new connections!
