Hello! My name is Paula, and I bring over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, along with an educational background in Child Development. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to grow. I also had the wonderful opportunity to spend two years as an au pair caring for infant twin boys. That experience deepened my love for early childhood care and taught me the importance of patience, consistency, routine, and creativity during a child’s early development. I’m energetic, reliable, caring, and always happy to jump into activities that encourage both learning and fun. In my free time, I enjoy painting, practicing yoga, and reading, all things I love incorporating into my time with children. Whether we’re getting creative with arts and crafts, staying active, or winding down with a good storybook, I strive to make each day engaging and meaningful. My most recent experience as a caregiver was with a lovely family with 5-year-old twin girls. This experience was incredibly special to me, and those two girls definitely won my heart! We created so many wonderful memories together, from playing and doing arts and crafts to working on homework and learning together. Being part of their daily lives and watching their personalities and creativity grow was truly a beautiful and rewarding experience. And I have to add. I absolutely love animals! I currently have a cat named Onyx, so I’m very comfortable working with families who have pets as well. 🐾 I’m excited to bring my experience, enthusiasm, and positive energy to a new family, and I look forward to supporting your children’s growth, happiness, and well-being.

Paula was our nanny for a year and she was trustworthy, reliable and very loving towards our kids. She has varied skillsets and helped my kids develop their interests in arts and crafts. I would recommend Paula to anyone who is seeking a warm, kind, responsible and resourceful caregiver and I am grateful we were able to find her.

I’m a responsible, energetic, and caring babysitter with experience working with children of all ages. I previously worked with Busy Bees Babysitting in Phoenix, Arizona, where I babysat part-time during the off-season while playing collegiate basketball at Grand Canyon University for three years. This experience helped me develop strong skills in childcare, safety, and keeping kids engaged in fun, age-appropriate activities. I recently moved to San Jose to finish my final year of basketball at San José State University, and my athletic background has strengthened my discipline, leadership, and time management skills. I genuinely enjoy working with kids, as a come from a big family, and creating a positive, safe, and fun environment for them. I’m patient, dependable, and great at building connections with children and families. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, homework, and daily routines. I look forward to meeting your family!

Sara is great! My daughter loves her!
