Hello everyone! My name is Megan and I operate Sitters on Park. I grew up babysitting and pet sitting for all the local families in my neighborhood. I quickly realized I had a passion in caring for others. The medical field spiked my interest which led to working in healthcare. I take pride in caring for others as if they are family. As the owner of Sitters on Park, we strive to provide the best sitters in the Winter Park area. I believe there should be no worry when children (including furry) are being cared for. We look forward to you joining Sitters on Park!
