Hi! I am a mother of five children ranging in age from 4-14 years old. Now that my kiddos are all in school, I am looking to work part-time. In addition to being a stay at home mama, I have been working with children of all ages in daycare, school, camp, and home settings for over 25 years. I most recently worked at my children's school as the napping house assistant for 16 kindergarteners. I am also a certified postpartum doula and have worked with several families as they made the transition into parenthood. I love cooking, practicing yoga, and indoor rock climbing. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
Hi, my name is Paula and I’m a caring nanny with 4 years of experience—2 years in the United States and 2 years in my home country. I have enjoyed this experience working with children and creating a fun and engaging environment for them while I learn a lot. I have a big experience taking care of three kids (7,5,1 y.o) this experience in particular has been enriching my skills and my capacity of handling different challenging situations like daily duties , playtime for them, stressful times and overall my capacity to be mindfulness and remain calm wich has been the key for my daily routine. I’ve really learnt from my time as a babysitter the importance of stimulation for kids that’s one of my motivations to encourage kids to play outside, going for walks and just spend time in the nature . Another very important aspect is listening, I always try to be very attentive to the things children want to express or communicate . Communication is key between adults and I I’m an active person who enjoys playing volleyball, exploring the outdoors and discovering the little wonders of the world, I love animals and am happy to include them in the activities. I’m available during evenings, nights, and weekends, making it easy to accommodate your schedule. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing, getting them ready for bed , or taking them out. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
“Paula was the best!! Helped our family out last minute she was very communicative and my 2 year old son absolutely loved her! Highly recommend, thanks Paula!”
I have over seven years of professional childcare experience and hold a degree in Early Childhood Education. I have worked extensively with infants, toddlers, and school-age children, providing attentive, developmentally appropriate care tailored to each child’s individual needs. My experience includes supporting early developmental milestones, establishing consistent routines, and creating engaging educational activities that promote cognitive, social, and emotional growth. I am well-versed in infant care, including feeding, diapering, sleep routines, and tummy time, toddler care such as potty training, language development, and guided play, and school-age care including homework support, structured activities, and age-appropriate responsibility building. Throughout my career, I have prioritized safety, nurturing relationships, and positive guidance. I maintain open and professional communication with parents, offering regular updates on progress, behavior, and milestones. I am dependable, organized, and committed to creating a supportive environment where children can thrive.
I started my journey in being a Nanny, family assistant, house manager, over 18 years ago. I really do love being apart of families life’s and helping create a happy, will functional, home with happy children. Being a mom of two teenager boys. I believe I have great experience with all stages of children and how they grow and change so quickly. As a caregiver it’s my job to make sure to have great communication with the family about the needs and schedule of each child. I am looking forward to finding a new family to help.
Nurturing young minds is more than a job: its my passion. With over 20 years experience, I offer attentive individualized care to all children. My graduate degree, coupled with Early Child Development coursework and certification as a teacher provides me with a strong foundation. I am patient and calm and I enjoy engaging children with board games and read aloud books. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules. I maintain open communication with parents following their preferred method to keep them informed. I am also certified in First Aide Training and CPR Training. Beyond childcare, I am happy to help with cooking , meal preparation and light house keeping. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and dedication to your family,
