Paulina $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Paulina, a caring, responsible, and energetic caregiver from Ecuador. I have experience caring for children of different ages as nanny in Wetchester, where I help with school routines, meals, activities, homework, transportation, and creating a safe, positive environment. I also have experience caring for pets, including walking dogs and providing daily care. I’m organized, patient, reliable, and enjoy planning creative and educational activities. I love spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, reading stories, playing soccer and swimming, and encouraging healthy routines. I always treat every child and pet with love, respect, and patience, making sure they feel safe, happy, and supported. I would love the opportunity to help your family and become someone you can rely on every day.
