About Vanessa

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing children and supporting families has been my professional focus for over a decade. My journey into childcare began with rewarding babysitting experiences that highlighted my desire to make a lasting, positive impact on young lives. I am a patient, creative, and approachable caregiver who is comfortable looking after two children between the ages of 6 and 18. I hold current CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications. I am also experienced in working with special needs children. I enjoy engaging kids through board games, educational puzzles, and creative crafts. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and will always follow your preferred communication method for daily updates. Because I am bilingual in English and Spanish, I can also incorporate language learning into our activities. Helping your family thrive is my greatest priority, and I truly look forward to becoming a trusted part of your daily life.
