My passion is to help others, whether it's a family, a business, or both. I love teamwork, collaboration, and creating fun activities and routines that work for everyone! I'd describe my personality as sweet, proactive, and organized. I like working with kids because they're funny, ask lots of questions, and I really enjoy activity planning for kids. I'm looking for a job that is supportive and allows for creativity and outdoor activities. I started working with kids when I was in my junior year of college. I was an afterschool nanny for four kids. It was fun and rewarding and it made me realize I could work as a professional nanny. In my spare time, I like to read, play tennis, go on bike rides, hikes, and be outdoors as much as I can. One thing you should know about me is that I will encourage outdoor playtime (even in the city) as I think it's very important for children. My skills include activity and scheduling planning, infant care, and organization.
Abby is amazing! She helped support our family by taking care of our two girls, who were 2.5 years old and a newborn when she first started with us. Abby was such a blessing to us and quickly became a part of our family. She is kind, thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely a joy to be around. She was always punctual, flexible, and able to easily switch gears as our kiddos’ needs or schedules changed. Abby has a calm demeanor, while also having great energy. She was always ready to jump in and play with our girls, whether it was engaging in a craft activity, having a tea party, or having a dance party in the kitchen. She also did a wonderful job keeping our girls on their schedules, fixing their meals, handling nap time/bed time routines, and tidying up the house. We moved away from the city a few years ago and we miss Abby so much! Had we not moved, we would have loved to keep her forever. Any family would be so lucky to have her!
