**Currently seeking regular Friday night/weekend babysitting jobs. Also available occasionally for weekday afternoons/evenings.** Hi - My name is Meghan and I'm an artist in Chicago. I've been working with kids since I was 15 and love it. I started by watching my younger 5 siblings, and then began babysitting for kids in our neighborhood. I've worked as a camp counselor, and ran a summer arts camp in my backyard throughout college. Over the last few years, I've worked primarily with infants and toddlers, but I love kids of all ages. I also work as a part-time art teacher during the summers. When I'm babysitting I'm a big fan of old-school fun away from computer screens: long walks, outdoor activities, boardgames, sidewalk chalk, and arts & crafts. I also grew up with tons of animals and I'm totally comfortable caring for pets. In my free time, I love running, reading, live Read more music and cooking.
