Hi! I’m Paula. I'm a certified teacher, proud mom of two boys, and a reliable, caring sitter with over 18 years of experience working with children. I bring a calm, nurturing presence into every home and love helping children feel safe, supported, and engaged. Over the years, I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to school aged kids. I enjoy creating fun, age appropriate activities like story time, crafts, games, and outdoor play. I’m also happy to help with homework, light housekeeping, and bedtime routines. If you're looking for someone dependable, patient, and fun, I’d love to connect with your family!
