Meet Paula
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
I am a mother of 4, have fostered over 140 children, specialized in babies, ran a daycare for special needs children and was a professional nanny for 7 years when I was younger. In short, I have a lot of experience with children, all kinds. I have cared for multiples, children with medical, cognitive and behavioral issues. In short I am a baby whisperer. I am looking for a part time job while my children are in school, approx 10-16 hrs a week. I have to pick my two youngest up from the bus and need to leave by 2. If you are comfortable with me taking your child with me to pick my kids up from school, I could stay later. My children are old enough to stay home together, however they don’t get dropped off from the bus close to our home, and they require a ride from Read more the bus stop to home. I use the Love & Logic parenting method, which is parenting with natural consequences and humor. I am looking for a minimum of $20.00 an hour.
