I am a Newborn Care Specialist with a special interest in infant development and over 6 years of professional child care experience. I support my clients by assisting with sleep, feeding schedules, infant development and day/overnight/travel care. I am a member of the International Nanny Association and Certified by the American Red Cross in Pediatric & Adult CPR/AED/First Aid. I hold Certifications of completion in Foundational & Advanced Newborn Care, Holistic Newborn Care/Newborn Nanny, CAPPA Lactation Educator, Infant Massage, USA Baby Formulas Advanced Childcare, Babysitting Safety, Child Nutrition (infancy through teen), and Child Psychology trainings. I graduated with honors from North Central College in 2009 as a double major with a Bachelor’s in Studio Art & Marketing. I enjoy teaching infant sign language, working on newborn photoshoots (most often with multiples), and incorporating my artistic background with projects and activities that are not only fun and also support the growth Read more and development of your child/children. Minimum of 4 hours pay per booking. You may cancel booked care up to 72 hours in advance for free. A Cancellation Fee will apply within 24-48 hours of booked care equal to 50% of the hours reserved. For cancellations within 24 hours, the fee is equal to the 4 hour minimum charge. Please remember that when I reserve hours for your family, that means I am guaranteeing my availability and I’m turning down work with other potential clients. Please let me know if you have any questions, and I look forward to working with you and your little ones! Feel free to reach out to me at: nannybossmsmegan@gmail.com 630x 666x 9972x
