About Vanessa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello, I am a retired Midwife with eight years in high risk OBGYN and clinical experience in mental and behavioral health. I bring extensive newborn expertise and a calm, supportive presence for families. As a mom of four, including two adults and one nearly grown, I understand the value of helping hands that allow parents to enjoy their family journey instead of feeling overwhelmed with daily tasks. Experience with children of all ages and abilities, including DS, Spina Bifida, Autism and ADHD Superpowers, PTSD, learning disabilities, gender dysphoria, and LGBTQIA youth. I am laid back, gentle natured, patient, flexible, and nonjudgmental. I believe in nurturing kids while teaching responsibility and supporting the family. I enjoy being active and am open to live in roles with a private quarters or similar. I previously lived in a pool house with a family I delivered triplets for and it worked out beautifully. I would love to discuss your familys needs and see if we are a good fit.
