About Abby

Experience: 10 yrs

My name is Abby-I am a licensed social worker, trained in play therapy, with a concentration on working with children and families! Prior to my master's, I worked for three years at a youth organization, specializing in education, social and, emotional growth with middle school-aged youth. Throughout, I have been a caregiver for 15+ years and have babysat and nannied for children ranging from newborn to 14 years old. I am happy to provide references! Getting to work with families and children has been such a joy in my life. I am an active caretaker who is very patient, kind, and down to earth. I am a flexible and reliable person. I have a car and am CPR and first aid certified.

The absolute best. Abby and my daughter formed a remarkably deep bond over their year together. Her loving nature and gentle approach was always a balm for us as a family, and we all cried when it was time for Abby to move away, and will try not to be jealous of whichever lucky family gets to work with her next. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
