Abigail Creve Coeur
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Abigail . I am a mother to my beautiful and smart 7 year old daughter. I have 10 years of experience working with children from age ranges of infancy to 14 years. I have been fortunate enough to be a nanny and worked in some amazing daycares as well. I currently work as the Lead teacher in the one and a half classroom at The Goddard School. Children have become my passion over the years. I love watching and helping them hit their milestones and creating lessons based around their specific age groups. I am currently enrolled in school pursing my child development degree but it’s all online classes so it will not disrupt my work schedule. I have wonderful letters of recommendation and references as well. I love getting to know the children and families on a more personal level, because I love what I do and can’t wait to meet you and your little one. I am outgoing, passionate, and kind. Your child’s development and safety will always be my top priority in regards to their care. Please feel free to email me at [removed]. I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks so much.

Booked by 1 family in Allenton, MO

I’m currently a finance major in college, which might not seem directly related to caregiving, but it’s helped me become really responsible, organized, and dependable. I take commitments seriously and always try to show up prepared and on time. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15, and now that I’m almost 20, I’ve worked with kids of different ages and personalities. I also work as a lifeguard, which has taught me how important it is to stay alert and calm in any situation. Being responsible for people’s safety, especially kids, is something I never take lightly. I also have younger siblings, so I’ve grown up helping out at home, whether that’s with homework, rides, or just keeping them entertained. I love caregiving because I genuinely love being around kids. I think it’s so fun to see their personalities grow and to be someone they feel comfortable and safe with. It’s really rewarding to know parents trust me with their children, and I always try to create a balance between having fun and making sure everything runs smoothly. Something personal about me is that I’m very family-oriented. My siblings are a huge part of my life, and being an older sibling has shaped how I care for others. I’m patient, positive, and pretty easygoing, and I always try to bring good energy wherever I am.

Great and fast communication! Super friendly.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
