About Vanessa

Experience: 3 yrs

I recently moved back to Chicago after a year in Switzerland working with two wonderful school-age children! As the oldest of 3, I've spent most of my life caring for children from infancy through adolescence. I also have a background in Child/Adolescent Psychology from Northwestern. I'd describe my personality as effervescent, warm, and creative! I like working with kids because their inner worlds are alive with imagination and creativity!
