Experience: 7 yrs
I am a very energetic , fun, reliable and patient person. I love kids and have been babysitting for 7 years. I can help with Light Housekeeping, fun Crafts, keeping them on track with school, and preparing snacks and meals. My priority is to keep your kids safe and creating a fun and loving environment while you are gone. I also speak Spanish and English fluently and if interested could introduce your child to a beautiful new culture through snacks, food and language.
My wife and I are first time parents, so you can imagine how nervous we were about the whole babysitting thing. We both have to work, and the thought of leaving our baby with someone we didn’t know was honestly scary. Then we found Paola. She’s calm, patient, and genuinely caring. You can tell she actually loves being around kids it’s not just a job to her. She paid attention to our baby’s routine, the little details, and made us feel comfortable every step of the way. I speak Spanish and my wife doesn’t, so it meant a lot to me that Paola speaks Spanish too. I’ve always wanted my child to grow up understanding and speaking both languages, and having her around has definitely helped with that. It’s something really important to me, and she supports that completely. She’s also shared that she has both a brother and a sister and comes from a very loving family, and you can honestly see that in the way she cares for our baby. The way she treats our child reflects the kind of home she was raised in with patience, warmth, and respect. Now, instead of stressing at work, we feel at peace knowing our baby is safe, loved, and in great hands. We’re truly grateful we found her. Any family would be lucky to have her.
