A little bit about me

Hello, I’m Abbey. I am 25 and live north of Nashville. I am currently working as a part time nanny, but open to new opportunities. I am fun and easygoing, but I know the importance of a good schedule and an organized home. I have over 6 years of experience in both nannying and summer camp settings. I absolutely adore children and always strive to provide a safe and loving environment for them to learn and grow. I love the Lord and want to make that know in my life and the work that I do! Outside of work, I love the outdoors, photography, time with friends, a good cup of coffee, and my dog Cam!
