Hi! I’m Meghan, a Tahoe local ski and snowboard instructor and coach. With several years experience working with youth. I enjoy taking kids outside rather than keeping them in front of a screen. Staying interactive, to help kids feel comfortable while having fun. I grew up with very active parents and that lifestyle has stuck with me into my adulthood. I love doing arts and crafts, making up fun silly games to play, baking cookies to decorate, and legitimately making learning fun in all sorts of exciting ways. I do understand the importance of a timely nap, and set schedules kids are on. I am almost finished with online and in person school to become a special education teacher. I have worked in special education classrooms as a paraprofessional for about 3 years now. Know basic sign language, comfortable with non-verbal children. Willing to work with family’s with kids of Read more all abilities and ages. (Infants as well) Reliable safe vehicle. Love pets, I have 2 dogs of my own. Also, willing to tutor, help with homework or any online learning. I don’t mind light cleaning or laundry, love to cook, especially for kids, as well as picky eaters.

Meghan is absolutely fantastic, This was my first time hiring a babysitter, so I was a bit apprehensive that my son wouldn't feel comfortable having a stranger watching him -- instead he was giddy with excitement when we came home, and he is dying for her to babysit him again! Highly recommend.

Meghan was incredibly communicative and a joy to work with. My 5 y/o son had the absolute best time- has kept talking about her and that she played games with him. Highly recommend. Thank you Meghan !

Meghan was a great sitter and had so much fun with our son!! When we left he had no tears which is a first for us when leaving him with a babysitter. She was great at communicating and definitely one of the best babysitters we’ve hired. I highly recommend and would use her again the next time we are in the area.
