A little bit about me

Hello!

I am an experienced care giver. I am a female, in my 30’s, who loves to stay active and be outside as much as I enjoy indoor activities and slowing down a bit.

I honor and respect the wishes of the parent(s)/ guardian(s) and care for the child(ren) as if they were my own family, prioritizing their safety, health, and happiness. Communicating with the primary care giver(s) and fostering a working relationship is important to me.

Some of my interests include:
- Going for walks
- Reading
- Spending time with my family
- Being out on the water- kayaking, swimming (I was a competitive swimmer for 2+ decades, and swim coach)
- Horseback riding and caring for barn animals- horses, goats, ponies, mules, chickens, and bunnies! (Work-ride student, college equestrian, barn hand)
- Baking! (And I love to share whatever I make so you’ve been warned haha)
- Traveling, exploring, and new experiences
- And of course, caring for kids of all ages!

Please reach out with any questions :)

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love creativity and imagination! I always enjoy seeing what they’re passionate about (even if that changes within the hour haha). I enjoy participating in play- whether it’s outside or inside. I love spending time outdoors (with plenty of water and appropriate weather wear of course) and spending time inside. Some of my favorite activities include story time, playing outside, going on nature walks, snack time (yumm!), show and tell of their favorite toys or adventures, and of course time to just get out some of their energy and have fun doing it!

I am also comfortable going on adventures and field trips including to the library, the park, or anywhere else they may want or need to go. *with the appropriate car seat provided, if applicable.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Safety first! Safety is always my number one priority. And respecting the requests of the guardian(s). It is important to communicate and have mutual trust and respect. It’s important to me that you know your little one(s) are safe, cared for, and (hopefully) having a good time!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Watching them grow and learn. One of my favorite memories is the fist time I came over and a previously shy child, who often dreaded his mom leaving for the day, was jumping up and down excited for our day together when I arrived. It may seem like a little win but it meant a lot that the child had become comfortable with me and knew what to expect when I came over, usually a trip to their favorite park, making lunch together, and showing me all the latest and greatest toys, books, or other exciting things they were interested in that day. I love to see them excited to see me, knowing they’ll have fun and be safe while their guardian(s) are away for a bit.

Meghan F. - Seeking Work in Bedford

Live-In Full-Time Nanny Available in Bedford, NH: Meghan F.

Hi, I'm Meghan, a mother of 2 boys aged 4 and 2. I have so many passions, but early childhood development and home economics is my favorite niche. It is my dream one day to start a coaching business as a holistic home management coach, helping families heal chronic mental, physical, and spiritual illness through the deliberate structuring of the home environment.

I have a background as certified GAPS Nutritional coach, helping families heal chronic illness through nutritional intervention. I can help with meal planning and cooking family meals. I have experience with canning/preserving and cooking traditional foods such as homemade kefir, yoghurt, meat stock, bone broth, kombucha, sourdough, etc.

I am also familiar with Waldorf and nature school pedagogy. I believe there is no such thing as bad weather and we spend the majority of our time outside interacting with nature in all seasons.

I studied Early Childhood Development through the Neufeld institute.

Stephanie C. - Seeking Work in Bedford

Full-Time Nanny Available in Bedford, NH: Stephanie C.

Seeing excitement from kids as they master new skills inspired me to pursue a career in education. I’d describe myself as warm, patient, and dependable, while also being energetic and creative. I believe in balancing structure with fun and always bring a nurturing, positive attitude.Communication with parents is very important to me. I share highlights from the day, celebrate milestones, and address concerns respectfully. I’m comfortable following and enforcing household rules, knowing that children thrive on consistency and clear boundaries. I also enjoy engaging kids in imaginative play, arts & crafts, outdoor activities, music, and games that encourage creativity and teamwork. I treat every child as if they were my own, making their safety, happiness, and development my top priorities. I’ve worked in daycare for 5–6 years with children from infants to kindergarten age, earned my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education, and completed my master’s in Elementary Education.
