I'm Meghan, a 23-year-old nursing student at Dalhousie University with a passion for supporting new families in their miraculous journey of parenthood. I am aspiring to be a labour and delivery nurse and have already gained rich experience in various nursing care settings over the past three years. I'm extremely excited to bring my caring nature and professional training to your home. I'm well-versed in first aid procedures and CPR, having acquired formal training in both. Adding to that, I am extremely comfortable working with children of all ages, from newborns to adolescents, and can confidently handle up to two children. I find joy in helping them with their homework, preparing meals, doing their laundry, and maintaining a neat and tidy kitchen. I am also open to running errands and grocery shopping for you. Being a responsible adult and a non-smoker, I understand the importance of creating a safe and healthy environment for children. What makes me even more approachable is my ability to care for children with disabilities, and I can assure you that they would get the best nurturing care with me. I have a driver’s license and my own reliable vehicle, making transporting your children or running errands an easy task.

My name is Emilee; I'm 27 and grew up as an only child between Chester and Mahone Bay here in Nova Scotia. I am currently studying at Saint Mary’s University to get my Bachelor's degree in Wildlife Biology and Geology. Being creative is important for me daily! I do so by sewing, reading, going for nature walks, hiking, and listening to podcasts in my spare time. I am also an animal lover, with two cats of my own named Bonnie and Bo. I am a very patient person, very easygoing, and adaptable. Making everyone feel comfortable and assured is a priority for me; I ask a lot of questions to make sure everyone is on the same page and to continuously learn as I go. I have been babysitting and nannying casually on and off since I was 12, mostly for toddlers and young children. I also have some experience with newborns and infants. I feel most comfortable caring for 2-3 children, depending on their ages. Growing up outside of Chester, I looked after the children of family friends who lived nearby, as well as families in Chester during the summer and Halifax during the school year. Since moving to the city, I have occasionally watched children in the evenings, helped put them to bed, done light housework, quietly worked on my studies, and spent time cuddling with their dogs while watching shows. I am working on my Bachelors Degree in Wildlife Biology and Geology
