Hi! My name is Paulette and I am the mother to a very hyper active 17 year old son who just graduated from Highland Park High School . Working as a full or part time nanny for the past 7 plus years has given me a wealth of knowledge and information when it comes to dealing with children, in addition to the skills one may learn raising a child . I am actively working as a nanny.. The most important element of being a nanny for me outside of making sure that children are safe at all times , would be consistency ( for the children as well as for the adults ).Being 100% reliable .Creating space for children to play and learn freely is very important to me as well and I’d like to think my guidance plays a part in helping each child find there individuality.. All while Read more creating a safe space for children to grow. In my spare time, I enjoy working, traveling , museums , nature outings , DIY projects , and starting new small businesses.
