About Paula

Experience: 20 yrs

I am a caring professional nanny with over 12 years of nanny experience and more than 20 years caring for children of all ages, including newborns, toddlers, and twins. Caring for children and supporting families is my passion. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Education, which helps me create engaging, age-appropriate activities that support learning through play, reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, and structured routines. I am patient, responsible, energetic, and organized, focused on creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where children can thrive. I value clear communication with parents and follow household routines and expectations. I am CPR/AED and First Aid certified, have a clean driving record, and reliable transportation. I am happy to assist with meal preparation, children's laundry, light housekeeping related to children, and transportation when needed. I look forward to becoming a trusted, long-term support for a wonderful family.

Paula is an incredible nanny and babysitter. She cared for my son full-time until he started preschool. She was very energetic, engaging in play and activities for a full 8-9 hour day. She took daily walks to playgrounds, local libraries, and other outdoor play areas. Her extensive work history and training in early childhood makes her a perfect fit to help with all of the development milestones. She was crucial during the potty training phase. It was a breeze. She became a part of our family. Her heart is big, loving my son like her own. She often bought art and crafts surprises for my son. She is dependable; not once did she call in sick. I can’t say enough positive things. She still babysits for my now elementary-aged son. Any family would be lucky to have Paula caring for the children.
