Hello, my name is Abby Lynn. I would love to care for your child. I have worked with children (0 months-12 years) for many years; I have been volunteering and babysitting since I was 11. I have experience feeding, soothing when crying/upset, cleaning, playing with, putting to sleep with singing and bedtime stories, changing (clothes and diapers), potty-training, disciplining, caring for when sick, homework help (in English and Spanish), and loving on children. I absolutely love being with children; they bring me so much joy. I dislike sitting children in front of screens for long periods of time. I prefer to play with toys, dress-up, games, and/or running around outside. I am currently in a gap year from school, which means I am more available than other candidates that are currently in school and I can be utilized on very short notice. Children have a special place in my heart, Read more and because of that, I want to make sure every child is treated with extra special care and protection. I also have experience working with kids with special needs.
