Hi! I’m Meghan, a Tahoe local ski and snowboard instructor and coach. I enjoy taking kids outside rather then keeping them in front of a screen. I grew up without a T.V in my home and an active parent, that lifestyle has stuck with my throughout my adulthood. I prefer 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, prior to reading a kid’s favorite book! And other specifically scheduled things that a child needs. 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 all abilities and Read more 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 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 !

Thank you Meghan for your dependability, commitment, and overall passion for children. You were excellent in our corporate childcare event. We plan on reach out again for future events.

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.
