Abigail Baltimore
$17 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Abigail, and I am a recently moved to Baltimore to start my Masters of Music program at Johns Hopkins University. I am so excited to be in Baltimore to continue my studies, and also get to know a new city! For the past year, I worked as a music teacher at a public elementary school (PreK-5th grade) in North Philadelphia. I love working with and teaching children, and one of the reasons that I want to nanny while in school is so that I can continue building my skills in working with children. I was often a babysitter growing up, but it's been a few years so nannying would be a fresh experience for me! Additionally, I have four years of housekeeping experience from previous employment at a hotel, and also really enjoy baking/cooking, so I would be happy to help with some of these tasks if needed. Before living in Philadelphia, I was in Allentown, PA for my undergraduate degree at Muhlenberg College, where I studied Music, Theatre, and Psychology with an emphasis in child development. Outside of my work and studies, I really enjoy exploring new places, attending performances, and cooking/trying out new recipes. Because of my teaching experiences, I am very open to trying new things, and would be excited to try out different hobbies, games, and other activities with the children I may nanny for.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
