"Abigail was my son’s infant daycare teacher for a few months. When she chose to leave the daycare we asked her to babysit and has been doing so ever since. My son loves when she babysits and she does arts and crafts with him, which we love to display in our home. She is very sweet and her love for kids is apparent. She has always taken great care of my son. We will continue to hire her as needed!"

"Our family loves Abigail! She started as my daughter’s daycare teacher, but regularly babysits for us know. She’s warm, reliable, and truly great with kids. I never worry when my daughters are in Abigail’s care.
She’s not only incredibly loving and patient, but also creative - always coming up with fun, engaging activities that kept our girls learning and smiling.
Our girls always look forward to seeing Abigail. We love Abigail and any family would be lucky to have her as a nanny!"

Hi! My name is Abbeli, and I’m currently a sophomore at DePaul University studying Economics. I’m a responsible, caring, and patient person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children.
