Loving, Responsible, and Experienced Childcare Provider

Hi families! My name is Muna Abdi, and I’m a caring and experienced nanny with three years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve had the joy of working with little ones as young as 1 year old, children ages 2–7, and even those with special needs who require extra patience and support. I love creating safe, fun, and nurturing environments where kids can learn, explore, and feel truly cared for. My goal is to be not only a reliable caregiver, but also someone who helps your children grow with confidence, happiness, and love.
