Hi there, my name is Megan, I am 28 from Montgomery County, MD. I work full-time in the legal industry from home which allows for flexibility in my schedule. I have worked with families for over fifteen years; babysitting, housesitting, and petsitting allowed me to live in Maine year-round while I was in college. I have also volunteered as a Sunday school teacher (pre-covid) who was responsible for 30-second graders. I worked in home health care for many years, assisting the elderly. I specialized in end-of-life care/hospice. Babysitting has also been a love of mine. I love to come up with games and different activities that are interesting to the kids and challenge them to think outside the box. My favorite activity I used to do with a family that I used to babysit was to have the children play school but they were the teachers! They would walk me Read more through how to do different homework problems just how a teacher would, the kids loved it! (they also got their homework done without realizing it) I also love sports, I grew up playing ice hockey, field hockey, and cheerleading! I am CPR and First Aid certified. I also have to maintain a clean background check in order to keep my employment and to sit for the bar after law school.
