Meet Abby

  • Speaks Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi there! My name is Abby. I am a young and professional nanny living in Williamsburg. I have been nannying, and assistant teaching in preschools for over 10 years now. I have experience with children from infant to kindergarten age. Additionally, I have experience with both twins and preemies. I am willing to help with errands and chores around the house. My schedule is flexible, although I would certainly prefer to find something steady as I am also going to school part time in my final semester of my dual Masters in Early Childhood Education and Educational Leadership. Below is some more detailed information about myself, my background, and experience - so please read on! People would describe me as warm, friendly, organized, and responsible. I am happy, enthusiastic, dependable, active, and health conscious. I love all types of games, taking walks, playing on the playground/parks, going to the library, kids Read more classes, museums, reading, teaching, arts and crafts, and playing any sports/activities that children desire to play! I am very very familiar with much of the city - most notably the UWS, UES, Chelsea, Greenwich Village, Williamsburg, and Greenpoint. I have had success taking kids to fun activities in these areas. I am outgoing, creative, and fun-loving! I also have been brought up with good morals and values. I love working with children because it is so rewarding to watch them grow and learn. I can provide references, and a full resume as well! I am a recent college graduate and spent a semester interning at Disney. Since Disney had always been a passion of mine and it was the perfect place to spend my last semester, making magic every day for kids and families on vacation!  On my arrival back to New York, I nannied first for an amazing family with 2 children - infant and toddler age, then for a family with a 2-year-old and preemie twins in Greenpoint, next for a family with twin 18-month-olds on the UWS, and then nannied part time for a 5 and 7 year old, while in the mornings I taught as an assistant teacher at a private school on the UWS. Most recently I nannied for a 6 month old in Williamsburg, while also student teaching. Now that these have all come to a close, I would love to get back to being a professional nanny and help out another wonderful family while being a positive, enriching, and energetic presence for the children! I also love animals, especially dogs! I am always willing to help out with pets as needed!
