Hi! My name is Vanessa. I was born in Colombia. I’m 28 years old and I used to me a teacher. I’m offering my services as a caregiver, pet care, senior care and housekeeping. I always like working with kids, since I was a little girl. Back in my country, I study to become a teacher and work with different kids as a teacher and assistant on my internship. I was in charge of feeding the babies, changing dipper from the toddlers, create several activities like sensory games and listening exercise for the toddlers and babys. When I got my degree, I started with older kids. It was more like planning activities according to the subject that the principal assign me. I connect with most kids, I’m funny, responsable, reliable and tolerante. I enjoy doing art, science projects, walks around the park, playing basketball and baking. I’m pretty good at board games too. I grew up with pets my whole life. In my country, I have 12 cats and 2 dogs. I have experience taking care of parrots too, because my aunt have one and we do the feeding together and changing the newspaper. I’m comfortable with all kinds of pets, but my experience is with small pets like poodles or pugs.

“Vanessa is awesome! She arrived at our home on time and jumped right in to take care of our 2.5 year old son. They had a great time playing together, and she left his play area in really clean and tidy condition. She clearly has a lot of experience with kiddos and was super professional. We'd love to have her back. ”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
