About Paula
Experience: 3 yrs
Hola parents! My name is Paula, and I'm originally from Colombia. I have experience caring for children of all ages, and I'm CPR certified, so you can trust your little ones are in safe hands. I offer a multicultural experience where children not only receive loving care but also have the chance to learn or improve their Spanish or English. I love engaging with kids through fun and educational activities like outdoor games, board games, and puzzles. I believe play is essential for their growth. I'm a calm and patient person who enjoys spending time with children. I maintain open, honest communication with parents and respect household rules, which I believe are crucial for creating a safe, nurturing environment. I have my own transportation, I don't smoke, and I'm great with animals-so pets are no problem!
Most recent review
I would like to start this review by saying that Paula has been an absolute blessing to our family. From the very first time we met her, we knew she was the perfect person to care for our son. She has a naturally warm and inviting energy and always arrives ready for playtime with enthusiasm and joy. Paula brings an incredible amount of patience and genuine engagement to her work, which is evident in how much our son adores and trusts her. Their days are filled with fun adventures and meaningful activities—he always comes back with stories, treasures, and a huge smile. It’s clear he LOVES his time with her. On top of being amazing with our child, Paula is also highly professional. She has never been late and consistently follows through on everything asked of her. Her reliability and care give us complete peace of mind. We truly could not recommend anyone more highly to watch over your little one.
