Meet Abby

  • Speaks French
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi parents! My name is Abby, I'm 27 years old and living in Morningside Heights. I'm a freelance informal educator (mostly museums and community centers) looking for additional work. I recently received my MA in museum professions from Seton Hall University and have continuing graduate level courses in elementary and special education. Some of my past experiences include nannying for a high-profile Manhattan family and educator roles in several museums. I would love to entertain your little ones by taking them to museums, zoos, the park, and everywhere in-between. I love doing arts and crafts, playing outside, and even doing mad science experiments! I also have an interest in tutoring for the elementary and middle school crowd. I will be happy to share a detailed resume, hope to hear from you soon! '

Abby was great. My 2.5 yo took to her right away and she knew exactly how to engage her:

Abby was PHENOMENAL!! She was punctual, she made sure my kids were well fed, well entertained and used proper judgment in feeding them as well. But most importantly, she was super friendly, followed directions precisely and was wonderful with my kids. She made sure my older daughter did her homework and was wonderful with my son who is 2 - he clearly LOVED her. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Abby to anyone looking for a professional and reliable babysitter who is wonderful with your children. I Guarantee your children will be well cared for with Abby.
