My name is Abigail Rideout, and I am an experienced child care provider. I have worked with children ranging from less than a year old to preteen, as well as children with special needs (ADD, ADHD, Autism and Diabetes). For over a year I was a weekly caretaker of twin girls who were 3-4 years old, as well as two brothers who were foster children with some special needs. I have been a nanny to a little girl with Autism for approximately a year. I prefer to work with children who are potty trained, but I am open to any and all children who need care and dedication. I currently am employed at Green Earth Grocery and have experience and knowledge of Gluten Free, Allergen Free, and Vegan foods and their preparation. As an English student I have worked in the past for education companies with English language and literature Read more resources and lesson plans, and as such I can help oversee homework and class assignments. At home and in my spare time I like to be outdoors, hiking and riding bikes and reading. I have a miniature pinscher puppy named Ollie and a little pink cat named Lily.
