Hello everyone! Welcome to my profile :)
My name is Paüla, a passionate and experienced childcare professional dedicated to creating safe, joyful and enriching environments where children can grow, explore and thrive. I have a strong international background with over 12 years of professional experience over a decade of experience and a deep love for children, nature and sport. I provide attentive, personalize and high-quality care adapted to each child’s needs; allowing parents to fully enjoy their holiday with complete peace of mind.
Originally from Argentina, I have lived and worked internationally and naturally adapt to families from different cultures. I speak Spanish, English, French and Portuguese, which allows for seamless communication with parents and children from around the world.
Credentials
Qualifications
hold several recognized certifications in childcare and education, including the BAFA and BAFD (French childcare and director qualifications), as well as First Aid (PSC1). I am a certified yoga instructor (500h), Reiki practitioner, Access Bars facilitator and a qualified ski and snowboard instructor.
This unique combination of childcare, wellness and sports expertise allows me to offer a holistic approach to childcare, supporting children’s emotional balance, physical development, confidence and well-being through a wide range of activities, particularly in active mountain environments.
Since 2015 I have worked as a nanny and babysitter. I have also worked in nurseries and children’s leisure centers, including Les Minots, Avrizou and the Village des Enfants in Avoriaz. I have volunteered in schools and nurseries across Latin America, gaining valuable multicultural experience and a deep understanding of different educational styles.
Background
Experience history
My experience as both a children’s activity leader and director has taken me to many different destinations across Europe, working in holiday camps and children’s programmes ranging from seaside resorts and amusement parks to mountain environments and multi-sports holidays. This rich and varied experience has taught me to adapt to different environments, cultures, age groups and activities, while always ensuring that children have a safe, engaging and memorable holiday experience.
With children, I create a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment where they feel confident, relaxed and free to be themselves. I enjoy offering a balanced mix of creative activities, educational games, outdoor experiences and movement-based practices.
Living and working in mountain environments I particularly enjoy sharing nature, sports and active play, helping children connect with their surroundings while developing coordination, resilience and self-confidence. All activities are adapted to each child’s age, energy level, interests and the family’s expectations.
Before planning the activities for the day, I always like to speak with the parents and understand their wishes, preferences and expectations. My approach is highly flexible and personalized: I adapt to what you are looking for from me while also making sure the children can enjoy activities they genuinely love. Depending on their interests and your preferences, this could include sledging, accompanying them skiing or snowboarding, helping them improve their technique, going for a walk around the resort, enjoying outdoor activities or simply staying at home for a quiet and relaxing day. My goal is to find the right balance between what parents expect and what makes each child happy, comfortable and excited during their holiday.
What I find most rewarding is seeing children grow in confidence, joy and independence, while feeling truly supported and understood.
I am known for being deeply committed, discreet, reliable and patient. My priority is always to ensure that each child feels safe, valued and happy, while parents feel completely confident and relaxed during their stay.
