Abigail, nanny in Mintlaw

Hi, my name's Abi.

I am engaged to my partner of 7 years, and we are to be married April 2016. We have two beautiful children together. Madison is 5 years old, and Joshua is 2 years old.

So as you can imagine I do a lot of juggling; working, kids clubs, play dates, sleepovers, visiting family, outings, homework, planning a wedding etc. but I wouldn't have it any other way. I love to see my children with happy faces.

I love making up weekly plans. They are a saviour, especially when it comes to the holidays. And it's a great way to get children interested in planning. But it also gives me a heads up on what educational things we can be looking out for, and what we can gain from each experience. I believe in a lot of fresh air, so whether it's rain or sun it's guaranteed we'll be out experiencing the great outdoors. I feel arts and crafts is a fantastic opportunity for children to express themselves. I do a lot of messy play, and I believe I have become an expert in the clean up! It's a great way for children to explore their senses. I love reading stories and I may not have the best voice in the world, but song time is another one for my yes list.
