A little bit about me
Hi! I am Abbie. I am BLS certified and have 3-4 years of nanny experience ages 0-10.
I have a wide range of interests, and those closest to me would likely call me an adventure seeker. I love to try new things, spend time outside, and (sometimes) get a little messy. In my free time, you can find me reading, watercoloring, going on walks, or hanging with my friends.
Your kids would be in the best hands with me. I love to help them with school, spend time outside, watch movies, and teach them sports. I am also happy to help if you have any cats or dogs in the house and am willing to clean/tidy throughout the day.
I am a strong communicator, on-time, and intentional person and will provide you with daily updates if desired. Thank you for considering me!

A little bit about me
Hello, I am a 31 year old woman that has been in the childcare field for over 15 years with 11 of those years as a nanny.

I look forward to having the opportunity to help a family and provide a healthy, educational and fun environment for their child(ren).

Hi, my name is Grace. I come from a large family (I'm one of 8 kids) and I have 1 nephew and 2 nieces. I attended South Suburban College for two years and played on their volleyball team. I've worked at a family practice doctors office in the south suburbs for the past two and a half years. During my time at the doctors office, I became quite interested in nutrition! Recently, I developed a passion for cooking. I love trying new things such as foods, activities, and crafts! I have several years of experience babysitting my younger siblings and nieces and nephews. I've nannied for a group of rambunctious kids and loved every moment of it! I cherish all the memories I've made with the children, and I can't wait to have the opportunity to make more!
