Paula has been my sitter for my first son since he was 2, for several years on and off. Now I have a second boy who is now 2, and my oldest is now 7. The biggest plus is she has a very strong relationship with the Lord. Both of my boys also have a very strong relationship with the Lord as well. She does very well with them, communicates, has great patience, doesn’t mind doing any of parents requests. She’s worked at schools and daycares, so she has many ideas of things to do with them both separately and collectively. She also blends in some Jesus time. She comes to all of our birthday parties and loves to be a part of the help to start them too. I would highly recommend her to others.

Will always be grateful for Paula, she is honest and just love being around the kids, making sure they're heard, loved and taken care of. My kids love her and going outside to play or even just sitting with her to read a million books/one book repeatedly. She loves listening to music with them and helping them learn that'll benefit their development. Definitely one of the best babysitters I could ever meet and get to know
