A little bit about me

I am a pediatric Registered Nurse with nine years of experience and currently practice part-time at Mission Hospital. I am seeking part-time nanny work where I can offer individualized, high-quality care within the home setting.

I bring a calm, grounded presence and cultivate environments where children feel secure, respected, and free to explore. Reliability and safety are foundational to my work, alongside warmth and genuine connection.

Outside of work, I spend much of my time cycling, birdwatching, and hiking. I am also currently training for a triathlon! I value simplicity, creativity, and meaningful connection and aim to bring those qualities into the families I support.

Hourly rate begins at $35 and reflects my clinical training and professional experience. Final rates are based on number of children, responsibilities, and scope of care.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I am a practicing pediatric Registered Nurse with nine years of experience, including several years in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. I maintain active CPR, BLS, and PALS certifications.

In addition to my hospital background, I have three years of professional nanny experience with private families, including households with three and four children. I have also worked as a camp counselor for school-age children and have many years of childcare experience across ages 0–18.

My background has equipped me with strong clinical judgment, situational awareness, and the ability to remain composed in high-pressure situations.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I place strong value on thoughtful, developmentally appropriate engagement. Whenever possible, I prioritize time outdoors, as I believe unstructured exploration and connection to nature foster resilience, curiosity, and confidence.

Indoors, I encourage hands-on, imaginative play that supports creativity and critical thinking, including reading, crafting, puzzles, and open-ended exploration. I aim to limit screen use and instead create opportunities for meaningful engagement and independent thinking.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The foundation of my work is building secure, trusting relationships with the children and families I support. I prioritize emotional safety, consistency, and respectful communication.

My goal is to provide a steady presence that allows children to grow in confidence and independence while feeling safe and supported.

My experience with special needs children...

I have extensive experience supporting children across a wide range of abilities and needs, including children on the autism spectrum, children with Trisomy 21, children who are nonverbal, and children who use mobility aids. I have also spent significant time caring for a close family member with severe ASD, which has shaped my patience, adaptability, and commitment to individualized support.

In my nursing career, I have cared for children with complex medical needs including NICU graduates, Type 1 Diabetes management, tracheostomies, ventilator support, G and J tubes, oxygen management, and congenital heart conditions. I am comfortable collaborating with parents, therapists, and medical teams to ensure continuity of care within the home.

My approach centers on creating a respectful, steady environment where children feel secure and capable.

Meg R. - Seeking Work in Asheville

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!
