"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Hi Everyone! I am Abigail, 20 year old Au Pair from South Africa. I spent almost 2 years teaching at a daycare centre as well as tutoring and babysitting occasionally. I love spending time with kids and can do anything from cooking to helping with homework, etc. I am currently an Au Pair for a lovely family with three little boys from ages 2 years to 8 years old. I am also comfortable petsitting cats and dogs and house sitting.
“Abigail is currently our superstar Au Pair and has been living with us for the last few months. She predominantly cares for our 2 year old son, but also helps with our older two boys when they return from school (ages 5 and 8). She is wonderful with the boys and she has built an incredible relationship with all 3 of them. She's also very patient and her teaching experience really helps them with their learning and homework needs. She creates a warm, welcoming and enriching environment that ensures the kids have an optimal opportunity to thrive. She's highly reliable and always goes above and beyond our needs. She has a lot of free time in the evenings and over weekends, so I'll highly recommend her as a babysitter for any family.”
