About Abigail

Experience: 7 yrs

Nurturing children and watching them blossom is truly my passion. My seven years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, has equipped me with the skills to provide a safe and stimulating environment for up to four children. I hold a college degree and have completed Early Child Development coursework. I am also certified in CPR Training and First Aid Training. I'm patient, creative, and friendly, and I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and creating art. I am comfortable with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision. I always follow the parents' lead when it comes to household rules and communication, providing updates via text, phone, or in person. I have experience with special needs children and as a doula. I am happy to support your family and provide reliable care for your children, and I would love to get to know your family and discover how I can best assist you.

Abby is absolutely wonderful with our 3 girls- ages 11, 8 and 3 years old. She brings crafts for them to do, gets them outdoors as much as possible, and manages to find activities/games that can keep them all engaged despite the large age gap. She is gracious and readily adapts to last minute change in plans or hours. Her calm and kind demeanor are such a welcome addition to our sometimes (frequently) frenetic home!
