Meet Paula

I am at a very unique cross roads in life where I am enjoying my very flexible financial analyst and consulting "day job" and looking to enjoy evenings and weekends with children, staying busy and active. I have 3 adult children living throughout the US and youngest one has just recently left for school, so my house is very quiet! I miss the laughter, chaos and sincere and genuine honesty that children are so freely share about anything and everything. In my neighborhood, I babysit for one family and would be very glad to provide references. Albeit many years ago, while in college, I worked with as a part-time nanny for a family for 2 years. Two of my three children had learning disabilities and so I am very patient with homework and creative with ways in which to assist them in working through assignments. I enjoy staying active and Read more being outside, weather permitting.
