About Abbey

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi, I'm Abbey! I have tons of experience both working with children in a professional setting (preschools, day cares, schools) and as a nanny for over 10 years. I have an associates degree and a bachelors degree in psychology with an emphasis in early childhood development. I have excellent references, a reliable car, and I'm extremely flexible. Non smoker and happy to work around pets. I am also open to discussion about pay. For the past 10 years or so I have worked mostly with families and their babies-concentrating on sleep training (if the family is open to it), family organization, shuffling rides, nutrition, meal prep, and light cooking. And I know baby sign language. Most importantly I'm a big kid! I'm the adult going down the slide at the park and running around with kiddos! I have 7 adopted siblings I help my mom raise for 10 years while I went to college. I'm kind and caring, fun yet mellow in nature. I look forward to learning about you and your family.

I needed child care last minute and Abbey was at my house within the house. My kids (and large dog) loved her! She even cleaned up my messy house a bit. I appreciated that she was quick to respond to my inquiry and even send me photos of the kids while she was at my home.
