About Vanessa
Experience: 4 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am a very creative and cheerful person! I'm an ex au pair for the same family for 2 years and I took care of two girls, 5 and 9 yo today. We loved doing crafts, dancing... any kind of party . The little one learned to read and math (+ and -) with me so I'm very proud of myself because my first language is Portuguese. In my country I was volunteer in a Pathfinder Club (similar to Scouts) since I was 15 years old and that's why I love children so much. Outdoor play, arts and crafts, dancing, going to the park are some of my favorite activities. I also have a little experience with baby's but it was a long time ago but I'm open to learn more and to do more courses about taking care of baby's/newborn. I'm also open for dates nights and same personal assistance (groceries, cleaning and laundry). I'm a Personal Organizer certificated so I'll be glad helping you for same organization projects in your home. Thank you!

So I needed my house cleaned fairly quickly as my last cleaner was let go. Vanessa came by, assessed my home and gave me (what I thought was) a fair price. She came back the following week and cleaned my house from top to bottom. It was by far the BEST cleaning my house had since I had been here including the cleaning we had before moving in! She had excellent attention to detail, didn’t use all those crazy smells trying to “prove” it was clean, just REAL CLEAN. I did like that she asked my preference on certain things but I gave her free rein to do her thing and she did! Of course I hired her, I would have been a fool not to!
