Hi, my name is Vanessa, and I’m passionate about providing safe, nurturing, and engaging care for children of all ages. I’ve always loved being a sitter because it allows me to create meaningful connections while supporting children’s growth and development. I bring over 7 years of combined experience working with children, seniors, and individuals with disabilities. I spent 3 years as a teacher assistant, caring for and educating children ages 0–7 years old, and 2 years as a lifeguard at a community pool, ensuring safety in high-energy environments. Additionally, I have 2 years of experience as a medical assistant in a naturopathic clinic, where I honed my skills in organization, patience, and attentive care. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, giving parents peace of mind knowing safety is my top priority. My diverse background has equipped me with the ability to adapt to different needs and age groups, whether it’s Read more helping with homework, preparing meals, or creating fun and educational activities. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and provide the care and attention your child deserves! Please reach out with any questions or concerns.
