Hello! My name is Vanessa . I have taught in NYC public schools for 10 years and a Waldorph inspired school in Costa Rica where I lived for the past 5 years. I made the shift from teaching special needs children to private tutoring and nannying as I feel there is a stronger more personal relationship cultivated when it's one on one . I love keeping balance in my life by incorporating practices such as Yoga and meditation. I can be of assistance with feeding, bathing, grooming, hygiene, dispensing medication, light housework, dressing and educational assistance.
