Meet Vanessa

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

My name is Vanessa. I grew up in Santa Barbara and had affinity for children at a early age. I loved babysitting my nieces and nephew, especially during the summer. I always invented creative and fun games, and I find that children have always connected to my personality and my exciting spirit. I love being a nanny; it is the most rewarding and fulfilling job out there. Children are a delightful gift: they bring so much joy to my heart and make everyday so much better. As a nanny, I have years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. My experience has caused me to be proficient in cooking, cleaning, catering to each child's individual needs. My strength lies in multitasking, which is a key trait when dealing with multiple children. I have mastered time management, which is especially beneficial when giving each child his Read more or her individual attention. I promise to care for them to the best of my ability as their nanny.
