I’m a 30 year old Irish, Mathematics and Science Teacher. I have 8 years full time teaching experience and I have worked with children most of my life. I come from a large family, of which I am the eldest and so helped my parents with my 4 younger siblings. I was a member of the Red Cross at home and I am comfortable with First Aid and CPR. I am a very active person and love to be busy and outdoors. I’m a punctual and professional person yet caring and loving. I am currently employed as a full time teacher in a local Catholic school. I can provide references if required. Looking forward to meeting you and your kids!

Paula was so fantastic - my kids loved her, and she was communicative and kind with their big energy. Thank you Paula!

I love all children and all animals. I don’t mind doing housework like cleaning up in the kitchen either. I’m comfortable cooking for your children as well. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 :)
