About Paula

Experience: 10 yrs

As a Certified Nursing Assistant with over a decade of experience caring for children of all ages, I'm passionate about nurturing their growth and development. My patient and friendly nature creates a warm and safe environment where children can thrive. I excel at fostering creativity and imagination through play, whether it's engaging in outdoor activities, playing board games, or exploring educational games that make learning fun. I believe in open and consistent communication with parents, ensuring they're always informed about their child's day and any matters that arise. I'm confident in enforcing household rules while maintaining a positive and nurturing atmosphere. My background includes a college degree, First Aid and CPR training, and experience as a nanny and babysitter. I'm fluent in both English (it is not perfect but good enough to follow conversations, instructions and normal daily routine) and Spanish and am comfortable caring for a single child at a time.

Paula was our au pair for a over a year from April 2022 to June 2023. She was fabulous with our 2 boys aged 4 and 2. She had lots of energy and enthusiasm. Paula was responsible and punctual. She is a safe and responsible driver. She kept the boys areas and the kitchen very tidy. We were sad to see her move out as she finished the au pair program. I highly recommend her as a babysitter or nanny.
