A little bit about me

I am a bubbly, organized individual who loves working with kids. I enjoy reading, writing, taking walks or overall warm/sunny weather.

I graduated with a B.S in science. I have at least 5 years worth of working with children, the last 2 I spent doing Behavior Therapy with children 3-9 years old. I currently work as a Night Auditor at a hotel and am seeking a position to help a child explore their world, learn and grow.

My strengths are staying organized, detail oriented, and very caring. I take time to learn the child and move at their pace to build strong rapport needed to gain their trust and confidence in me. I am passionate about making an impact in children's lives and seek to broaden my experience as a sitter.

Recent reference

"Liliana is the sweetest, most responsible, reliable, caring person you can imagine. She cared for my twins since they were babies, so I could go back to work. She was their nanny until they started second grade. Lili did so much for them, not just the basics. A few days ago, now 10, we walked through the Boston Public Garden and they exclaimed “we always came here with Lili!”. When she got another job, she still came part time because we all wanted to have her. We all adore Lili, someone with a great heart, smart, no hesitations trusting my kids to her."

Hello, families! My name is Paulina, originally from South Africa, and I bring over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for children from newborns to 10 years old. I’m passionate about creating a nurturing, engaging, and safe environment where children can thrive, grow, and feel loved.

With a warm heart and strong work ethic, I treat every child as if they were my own. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and genuinely invested in your child’s well-being, I would be honored to support your family.

I’m currently available immediately and based in Dorchester, willing to commute to nearby areas.
