A little bit about me

Hi - My name is Molly and I'm a recent graduate from NAU. I am a young single looking for an exciting location change. Open to work any hours needed.
I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and school age kids (including twins!) since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons/ sports, educational/homework help, overnight care, and outdoor activities.
I have experience as an administrative assistant so can help with scheduling, transportation timing and any other household tasks as needed.
I started out babysitting for close families and friends and even all through college worked as a school aged tutor at local schools and the boys and girls club. I have a bachelors degree in Developmental Psychology and have a growing passion for the field.

A little bit about me

I have worked with many children of different backgrounds, who all differ from ages and grade
levels to their abilities, and I’ve truly learned that the most important thing is working with them and meeting them where they are at in that moment. Each child have different capabilities and when I meet him/her/them I talk to them and really want to see where he/she/they are at in terms
of learning and what he/she/they understand. I also do my best to ensure that I am respectful and understanding of all the children I work with because many of them are going through different things and identify in many different ways and it is always my intention to foster a safe environment with the children I work with.

A little bit about me

Hello dear families,

My name is Paola, and I’m originally from Italy with Venezuelan roots. I speak three languages, which allows me to connect with children from diverse backgrounds.

I’ve been working with children since I was 16 years old and have had the privilege of being an au pair for four wonderful years in the United States. Over the years, I’ve built strong, meaningful bonds with the children I’ve cared for, and I’m proud to say that I consider them my siblings.

I am an active, enthusiastic, and positive person who loves bringing creativity, play, and fun into children’s lives. Whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor activities, or simply making sure your kids feel safe and comfortable, I’m always ready to engage and create memorable experiences.

Patience is one of my greatest strengths, and I believe in fostering a nurturing and supportive environment where children can thrive.
I look forward to meeting your family and sharing many joyful moments together!
Warmly,
Paola
