Hello families! 💕 My name is Vanessa and I am looking for a new opportunity to take care of and support the development of your babies and young children. I just finished a Child Care program where I worked as a teacher in practice (intern), and I have a certification in First Aid. 👶 I have 4 years of experience taking care of and working with children from infants to 10 years old, providing a safe, loving and educational environment. 📘 In addition, I have a CDA (Child Development Associate) portfolio with several certificates that reflect my training and knowledge about child development, learning strategies and appropriate care for each stage. If you are looking for someone responsible, loving and committed to the well-being and growth of children, I would love to be part of your family! 💖
