About Paola
Experience: 9 yrs
My name is Paola, Although everyone from parents to the kids call me Polly! I've been a private Nanny/Nanny share for an amazing group of families in the Fort Greene area since end of 2019. I've provided attentive, long-term childcare for multiple children aged 1-10, ensuring safety, emotional wellbeing, and developmental growth. Plan and supervise daily routines including school drop-offs/pickups, meals, homework help, and recreational activities. Foster educational and social development through creative play, reading, and age-appropriate learning activities. Anti screens. Outdoors or crafts are more my style. Manage household organization related to the children (meals, laundry, tidying play areas, etc.). Communicate regularly with parents to align on routines, behavioral goals, and developmental milestones. I'm extremely caring and patient. Fun and safety is of up most importance, for each and every day!
Most recent review
Polly has become so much more than a babysitter to our family—she truly feels like part of it. Since we don't have family nearby, having someone we trust so completely has meant so much to us. She is kind, dependable, and brings such a positive, calming energy wherever she goes. She's incredibly easy to connect with, and both kids and parents feel instantly comfortable around her. Our 9-year-old absolutely adores her and has found not just a babysitter, but a true friend and role model in Polly. Polly goes above and beyond by organizing playdates with classmates, planning fun outings and adventures, and creating experiences our daughter genuinely looks forward to. She also has an amazing ability to effortlessly manage multiple kids with different personalities, making everyone feel included, safe, and happy. Knowing our kids are with someone who loves and cares for them the way she does gives us incredible peace of mind. We feel so lucky to have Polly in our lives and couldn't recommend her more highly.
