A little bit about me

Hi my name is Abigail but everyone calls me Abby. I am currently a student majoring in Elementary Education. Since I was 13, I’ve been working with children, from babysitting and nannying to working in daycares. I pride myself on being patient, outgoing, and always bringing a positive attitude to every interaction. I love engaging kids with creative activities such as arts and crafts, outdoor games, and educational play that spark their imagination and curiosity. I understand the importance of trust and comfort for both parents and children. I strive to build a strong connection with each family by maintaining open communication, providing updates, and ensuring that everyone feels at ease with my care. My goal is to make sure your kids are not only safe and entertained but also feel like they’re having a fantastic time! Looking forward to bringing joy and reliable care to your family!
