About me

I’m Meagan, an empathetic creative with many vibrant colors. I love to act, sing, dance, & empower children. My friends would say that I'm a joyful spirit with a laugh the size of Las Vegas, which is where I'm originally from!

I am the co-creator of Mixed in America, a community organization created to empower and uplift multiracial families & individuals. I lead support groups & do workshops for schools around the country.I am a proud mixed-race woman myself so giving back in this way is extremely important to me. This work has made me deeply vulnerable to the unique needs of children, & their desire to be truly seen, felt & heard by their caretakers.

I love helping children express themselves! I encourage them to celebrate their uniqueness by facilitating the creation of their own stories/plays/dances/etc.I adore teaching children early on about the power of their own imagination. I see children as enormous souls in small packages, and that mantra ensures that I never underestimate their brilliance.

I have 15 years of childcare experience working with children ranging from newborn to teens. This includes children with autism, special needs, ADHD and stuttering. My training includes over 7 years of arts education through organizations such as Lincoln Center Education, The Stuttering Association for the Young, Bartol’s Trauma Informed training, Girl’s First Trauma Informed training, & Mama Glow Doula training. Additionally, I have a BFA in Drama from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts.

One of my greatest skills is my emotionally intuitive nature. I am able to connect with the emotional needs of a child while also honoring boundaries, rules, and safety. I've lived in Nevada, North Carolina, Philadelphia and New York City, so I have experience with diverse families from many different cultures and walks of life. Lastly, I am comfy in the kitchen and I enjoy keeping my environment organized and tidy. You can count on me to leave your home tidier than I found it!

Thank you so much for any consideration and I look forward to hearing from your lovely family!
