A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Meagan, I have just graduated with my Bachelor's in Psychology. I have a lot of experience working with kids 2 and up with all abilities. Through my schooling, I have not only learned about child development, but have been able to volunteer in multiple elementary school in the Seattle/Tacoma area and briefly lead an after-school math program for 5th graders. I have also volunteered in my own time at Spirit Therapeutic Riding Center in Ellensburg, WA where I worked with children of all ages and abilities find comfort in their own minds and bodies through horseback riding. In addition, I worked for Seattle Parks' ARC as a daycamp counselor to children ages 4-13. Do not hesitate to ask questions, I am here for you!

A little bit about me

Hi, I am really a healing arts practitioner, iridology, yoga, energy medicine, sound therapy, that being said I love kids and cooking and due to COVID things are not as they used to be. Looking for good kids to take care of, they are the future and for the time being it feels like where spirit is calling me to work. I enjoy singing, art and dance and love to encourage children to be authentically who they are. The world is rapidly changing and we need heart centered children to believe in themselves and assist the generations to come. I am passionate about development and cultivating the inner compass, situations where children are watching TV and on ipads all day will not be a good fit for me. I believe I have the ability to facilitate more ease and flow for a family in need. My values are honesty, integrity, clear communication and high self worth. I hold these stong for myself and others. This is the way.
-Namaste
