A little bit about me

Hi I’m Abby!

I have been caring for children ranging from newborns to 13-year-olds for as long as I can remember. I grew up babysitting kids in my neighborhood and spent several summers nannying for different families. When I moved away for college, I began working at a daycare and quickly formed a strong bond with the children there. I stayed with that position for two years, up until I graduated.

I am looking for a full time babysitting/nanny position during the summers. I start my second grade teaching job in mid August and am looking for something rewarding to do in the summers.

If willing to talk more shoot me a message!
