Meet Abigail
- Comfortable with pets
Hi there, my name is Abigail and I am 20 years old. I recently just moved back to America after working with a nonprofit organization overseas for the past few months. With the surprise of moving back sooner than expected a few months ago, I have been looking for a job and absolutely love spending time with and taking care of children. I have a very flexible schedule and am able to work any day of the week. Over the past 7 years I have worked a lot with children from the ages of 10 months-13 years old. I have had experience volunteering in the children's department of my church; working in childcare at a Crossfit gym; babysitting for many families in my area; as well as teaching English to children while overseas. I also have a certification in Lifeguarding/FirstAid/CPR/AED from the American Red Cross Association. I hope to become Read more a nanny to spend time with kids during this confusing time. I love seeing kids learn and grow; and I love answering their wild, out of the box questions. I would say that I am an energetic person but also a person who can distinguish serious situations and communicate that with children well. I am looking forward to meeting some of you very soon!

Abigail was very responsive and getting back to me. My son took to her very quickly and he usually takes a bit to warm up to new people. She also came at beginning of potty training my son and she went along with everything with no problem. She is very active and entertaining with my child too. I am very happy with her and plan to use her a long time. I highly recommend.
