A little bit about me

I am outgoing, passionate, have a great work ethic, and I love people (especially kids)! I've been babysitting since I was 13, which includes siblings, family members, and coworkers' children. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons.

In the past, I've volunteered at my old elementary and middle school during the afternoons. There, I would help create weekly schedules, activities and other stimulating activities to keep the kids engaged and entertained.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Megan. I am 30 years old and I live in the Hillcrest area of San Diego. I have a Bachelor's degree in Spanish and Psychology and am currently in a Master's of Psychology program at SDSU where I work in the Infant & Child Development Lab. I have worked with children for many years in a variety of jobs. I worked as an early behavior interventionist with infants and toddlers, as a youth counselor at a residential treatment facility, and an instructor's assistant at an elementary school. I am passionate about childcare and have been babysitting and nannying for 10 years for children of various ages (infants to age 12). I have experience working with children with special needs and behavioral issues. I am also CPR and first aid certified and I have my own car and a clean driving record. When I babysit or nanny, I love to play board games, read books, do arts & crafts, and play both active and imagination based games.
