Feel free to call me Jo. I enjoy staying active just as much as laying down to read (I adore the children's book RAVEN). I love getting to play and be silly with kiddos; it gives me time to explore my imagination and decompress. It's amazing what doing things out of the usual day-to-day can do for a person! I love when families catch me up on routines and rules that may be specific to their dynamic. I work to stay consistent with your habits and to respect any cultural, social, or religious preferences. I am comfortable providing care in traditional, non-traditional, unique, and complex family settings; I also have experience house-sitting, pet-sitting, and tutoring. I am allergic to most dogs and cats, but it's not serious! With at least an hour's notice, I can take my meds to prevent sneezing and itchy eyes. I know the importance of creating and holding boundaries and limits, but discipline is always the tough part of bookings for me. Please inform me of your preferred method of discipline (time-outs, chores, loss of privileges, etc.) to ensure that your little one(s) feels safe and respected at all times. I update my calendar weekly and it takes into account my full-time job, existing obligations, and taking time to care for myself. I do not have a cancellation fee for cancellations more than 24 hours from the booking start. However, most same-day cancellations and early returns will be charged for the full booking time. I maintain a 4 hour minimum for bookings with limited exceptions. I am fully vaccinated! Note that I cannot provide care for families where a cough, runny nose, fever, or nausea/vomiting is present. The UrbanSitter community has always been respectful of my health and wellness and I'll keep your family's health as a top priority, too. Unfortunately, due to recent events, if I arrive at a booking and a child is coughing, has a runny nose, is running a fever, or is nauseated/vomiting, I will not continue the booking and cannot accept a discount or offer a refund; parents will be charged for the full booking time. If you have questions about my experience (or me!) or would like to speak to me, please feel free to send me an interview request!

Hi, my name is Megan! I’m a proud mom of three wonderful children, ranging from almost two to thirteen years old. I graduated from DePaul University in Chicago, IL, and I’ve called Colorado home since 2008. My journey into motherhood began in 2012, and it has enriched my life in countless ways, providing me with unique insights into the different developmental stages of children. Professionally, I've spent the last seven years as the Director of Operations for a private day camp in South Denver, where I’ve had the pleasure of working with school-age children ages 4-12 as well as teens. This experience allowed me to understand each age group more deeply and to foster a nurturing and engaging environment tailored to their needs. I believe in the power of connection, play, and loving boundaries. I adore working with infants and young children, while also enjoying imaginative play with older kids. I’m passionate about taking children outdoors to explore and have fun adventures. My goal is to encourage them to discover new interests and build self-confidence as they master new skills. As a former FIT4MOM franchise owner, I created weekly playgroups filled with crafts and activities that were appropriate for multiple age groups. I’m always on the lookout for creative projects to undertake with children, and I thrive on finding new ways to inspire their imagination. I can’t wait to connect and share in the joyous experience of watching children grow!
