Meet Vanessa

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi friends! I am Vanessa and I am a college student that loves music, arts, and being active. I am studying Psychology and I also play volleyball at my school. I babysat all through my teens and love being around kids. I worked with the children at my church every Sunday and took a few jobs outside of that as well. Kids are sponges that like to soak up knowledge in every way possible and I would love to be apart of that. I love working with kids, and being around them helps remind me of the happiness of my youth. Thank you!
