    Hello, I am Vanessa! 🌿 Maternity support, pet care and holistic well-being

    My name is Vanessa, I am 37 years old, and I firmly believe that authentic connections are the engine of life. I am a cheerful and respectful person, with a natural inclination for care and listening that I bring to every project I undertake.

    🌟 How I can help you
    In this phase of my life, I wish to dedicate my energy and skills primarily to these areas:

    🍼 Maternity and Childcare Support: I feel a strong calling towards the world of birth. I have already supported friends during pregnancy and post-partum, offering practical and emotional support. I would very much like to help new mothers or families, bringing joy and concrete help during such a delicate time.

    🐾 Pet Care and Companionship: Animals are fundamental companions for me. I have solid experience in pet-sitting, taking care of them with extreme attention to their specific needs. I easily connect with puppies and even the most fearful animals.

    🌻 Companionship and Creative Stimulation: Thanks to my background as a Social Educator, I love being alongside people (including seniors) who need company, listening, and engagement. I do not offer medical assistance, but rather a vital presence: I enjoy sharing a conversation, a game, a walk, or creative activities to keep the mind active and the spirits high.

    📚 My background
    I have deep experiences behind me: in my last experience in France, I supported a 45-year-old woman with frontotemporal dementia through a recreational project. After years in contexts of fragility, today I am looking for a more vital "mental breath," while still putting my professionalism at the service of those seeking a sincere human connection. From the end of January, I will be studying Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) remotely to deepen my interest in holistic well-being.

    ✨ Who I am and what I am looking for
    I am looking for simple, serene, and convivial environments. I deeply love sharing and exchange, but at the same time, I carefully nurture my moments of solitude, which I find necessary to recharge and maintain my balance. I practice meditation, and I love reading and nature.

    By personal choice, I do not smoke and I do not consume alcohol or coffee; I fully respect the habits of others and I always try to approach those who host me with curiosity and openness.

    📅 Availability: I am looking for a solution starting from February.

    I hope to meet you soon!

  • More details about your skills

    Essere quarta di sei figlie e zia di quattro splendidi bambini, ha sicuramente permesso di mantenere sempre alta la mia natura empatica e sensibile, riuscendo a connettermi alle emozioni ed esigenze altrui.
    Sono molto brava a prendermi cura di bambini in un'età compresa dai 3 mesi a 13 anni. Dal 2012 mi prendo cura di animali da compagnia. Esperienza anche di House sitting.
    So cucinare dei buonissimi piatti italiani e sono una ragazza che con garbo e umorismo cerca sempre di affrontare tutto al meglio.

  • What else ...

    Vi faccio dono di una poesia che tanto amo e che mi ricorda quanto sia importante trovare e ricordarsi di avere un posto nella famiglia delle cose.
    Una poesia che da qualche anno, insieme a molte altre che amo, è uno dei miei mantra personali.
    Oche selvatiche

    Non devi essere buono.
    Non devi camminare sulle ginocchia per cento miglia nel deserto in penitenza.
    Devi solo lasciar che il dolce animale del tuo corpo ami ciò che ama.
    Raccontami della disperazione, la tua, e io ti racconterò la mia.
    Nel frattempo il mondo va avanti.
    Nel frattempo il sole e i chiari cristalli di pioggia si stanno muovendo nei paesaggi, su prati e profondi alberi, su montagne e fiumi.
    Nel frattempo le oche selvagge, alte nel puro aere blu, sono di nuovo sulla rotta verso casa.
    Chiunque tu sia, non importa quanto solo, il mondo si offre alla tua immaginazione, come le oche selvatiche ti chiama, aspro ed eccitante – annunciando ancora e ancora il tuo posto nella famiglia delle cose.
    Mary Oliver
