A little bit about me

¡Hola!
I'm Paula, originally from the picturesque island of Mallorca in Spain, I bring with me a wealth of experience and a genuine passion for caring for children.

At 27, I've embarked on a new chapter in Portland alongside my partner, who recently secured a job opportunity here. While I finalize paperwork to transition my career as a certified teacher in the U.S., I'm excited to dedicate my time to what truly brings me joy: enriching the lives of children and making meaningful connections along the way.

With a diverse background in childcare, including babysitting, tutoring, and being an au pair, I've had the privilege of nurturing children aged 1 to 14. My educational background allows me to not only care for your children but also to engage them in language development and academic growth.

I'm eager to extend my services to your family and embark on this journey together, nurturing bright futures and creating cherished memories.

¡Hasta pronto!
