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.
