Hello, My name is Vanessa and I have 9 years of professional experience working in childcare. What I love most about being a sitter is being a source of comfort, security, and consistency for parents and families. My journey in childcare started at the age of 16. My first job was working at a daycare center. This job prepared me for my current role at my local school district. I am a substitute teacher and a prospective educator. I have 1 year of experience working with special needs. My knowledge and expertise is constantly evolving because this is the student demographic I plan to teach and work with. I am familiar with changing diapers and potty training. Furthermore, I am currently working on CPR /First Aid Certification.
