About Paulina

Experience: 8 yrs

I am a licensed dentist in Mexico currently working toward getting my U. S. license. In the meantime, I would love to continue caring for children, something that has been part of my life since I was 16. I started volunteering at 14 with children with special needs, including autism, Down syndrome, and pediatric cancer patients, and later worked as a babysitter for some families. I also trained in hospital settings. I worked as a Special Needs Au Pair in France caring for an autistic teenager and continued babysitting in Colorado and France. During dental school, I taught French to children and adults. I recently moved from Colorado to California. I have CPR training, excellent references, and truly enjoy teaching and spending time with kids. I grew up surrounded by nature and animals, so I also love pets. I have a very friendly small dog.

Paulina is very comfortable with children, she knows how to take excellent care of them, play with them, and supervise them. She looked after my disabled brother for over a year as an au pair in France and adapted to his specific needs with joy. I recommend Paulina without hesitation.
