About Abi
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
As I approach my eighth year of caregiving, I've come to truly understand the significant role a caregiver plays in a child's life. My goal is to inspire curiosity, self-expression, creativity, and discovery in a safe and enjoyable environment for your child. Before becoming a nanny, I gained valuable experience working as a teacher's aide in a Montessori preschool and kindergarten, assisting in a public elementary school art room, and teaching art classes on a farm. With a diverse background in both school and home settings, I'm comfortable working with children of all ages and in various group sizes. I love to engage with children through reading, singing, dancing, arts and crafts, fort-building, science experiments, and outdoor exploration. I'm also happy to help with additional tasks such as cooking, cleaning, errands, and school pick-ups/drop-off.

Abi was my art teacher aid. She is very creative and worked very hard with all of the little odd jobs that I had her do. Such as, hanging art work and checking it off when the student completed it, making art signs and painting posters. She came in one Saturday to help me glaze some of the student's projects. She was always willing to work on anything that I asked her! She was very kind and helpful with the students. She knew how I wanted things done and she just did it! She is a very hard worker and I miss having her in my classroom!
