Nanny in Vancouver, British Columbia

Hi families! I'm Paula from Salamanca, Spain, and I'm thrilled to potentially join your family as a nanny. With a background that spans across countries like Spain, New Zealand, Portugal, the United States, and Canada, I bring a wealth of international childcare experience to the table. My expertise lies in caring for newborns from 0 months👶 old to children up to 8 years old👧, having worked extensively in this age range in my previous roles. I'm not only fluent in Spanish, which means I can assist your children with their Spanish homework, but I'm also very friendly, bubbly, and adept at quickly bonding with kids. Whether it's watching every episode of Peppa Pig or Bluey (my favorite!) for the 100th time, I'm here to ensure your children have a safe, fun, and enriching experience under my care. You can trust me to be honest, reliable, and dedicated to providing the best possible care for your little ones. - So, why pick me? Well, first off, I've practically got a PhD in forts, bedtime negotiations, and snack-time diplomacy. - What makes me the Mary Poppins you didn't know you needed? I've lived in more countries than I can count, so I come with a suitcase full of cultural insights and a knack for adapting to any kiddo's quirks. Flexibility? It's my middle name (not really, but it should be). - Do you want to know something else about myself? Now, here's the plot twist: I used to be a hotshot journalist and did the whole marketing agency thing for years. But guess what? My true calling is hanging out with kiddos! Who would've thought? I figured out that my heart belongs to the playground, not the boardroom. I'm not your average sit-on-the-sidelines nanny. Nope, I bring a journalistic flair to the mix. Interviews about favorite toys, breaking news on cookie thefts—it's all part of the gig. Plus, I've got the creativity to turn a rainy day into a full-blown indoor treasure hunt. In a nutshell, I'm not your run-of-the-mill nanny; I'm the Mary Poppins with many stories saved in my pocket, a sense of humor, and a knack for turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. Can't wait to chat more and bring some serious fun to your kiddos' lives. Let's make childcare an adventure! Cheers, Paula :) Ps: - Valid First AID and CPR certificate - YMCA BC's Responsible Adult Course in Child Development, Child Guidance, and Nutrition - Solid local references - Spanish Teacher certificate - Newborns, toddlers experience - Valid work permit - Dog lover ;)
