Hello Sittercity Fam! My name is Vanessa Bent and I love being a sitter because I think the most rewarding part about caring for children is fostering relationships with them and their families. I really cherish the moments where I can help families support a child's growth and become an integral part of their development. Most importantly, I think most children really like the fact that I listen to them. When I ask children questions and listen carefully to their responses, they feel heard and I can find out so much about their preferences, goals and other important information. All of these unique details inform how I care for each child I work with—if I know what they like, I can make our time together more engaging.
