My name is Meghan and I am a doctoral student at Loyola University Chicago. I have my Masters degree in Community Counseling and have significant experience working with children both in a professional capacity and through providing child care services. I am an avid reader and a huge fan of arts, crafts, and creative activities. I am originally from Colorado and an outdoor enthusiasts. I have been CPR and first-aid certified. Also, I have worked extensively with children with developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, and behavioral concerns. I am a lover of all animals and am excited to begin working with a new family! I am looking to join a family primarily over the summer while my school schedule is more flexible, but would love to stay on as a regular babysitter-depending on what fits the family's needs. I am also able to be on-call for families on a more as Read more needed basis.
