A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Vanessa, I’m 20 years old and currently attending Portland Community College, where I’m working toward my degree in Sociology. I have a genuine love for children and have gained a lot of experience caring for kids of different ages through babysitting and childcare roles. I hope to have children of my own in the future, so being around kids and helping them grow means a lot to me.
I’m patient, nurturing, and always eager to learn something new every day. Spanish is my first language, so I’m bilingual, which I would love to incorporate if families are interested in their children learning or practicing Spanish. I also love animals, so I’m very comfortable in homes with pets. I’m responsible, dependable, and truly enjoy creating a safe, positive environment for children to thrive in.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Ada, and taking care of children is not just a job for me — it’s a true calling. I have a deep sensitivity to understand their emotions, their rhythms, and their needs. I strive to create an environment filled with respect, patience, and love.

I consider myself an empathetic, responsible, and creative person. I love supporting children in their discoveries, encouraging their imagination with safe and healthy play, and helping them build self-esteem through gentle presence and active listening.

More than just a babysitter , I aim to be a supportive guide in their emotional development, a reliable companion in important moments, and a comforting presence when they need it most. I'm fully committed to their well-being and to offering peace of mind to parents, knowing their child is in good hands.

I’m ready to care for, love, and support your little one as if they were part of my own family.
