I'm a positive, energetic mom of four and a proud grandmother of two. Over the years, I've gained experience working in nursing homes, running my own wedding photography business, and doing delivery work--each role strengthening my reliability, patience, and people skills. My greatest experience, though, comes from raising my own children and helping care for my grandchildren. Now that they're mostly in school, I'm excited to spend my time doing what I truly love: working with kids. I bring a fun, confident, and nurturing energy, while also understanding the importance of structure and respect. I believe children should be free to be themselves, but also guided to respect others, nature, and the world around them. I'm passionate about creating a positive environment where kids can learn, grow, and feel supported every day.
We cannot thank Tanya enough for the incredible care she provided to our two Australian shepherds and our cat while we were on vacation. From the moment we met her, it was clear she had a genuine love for animals, and she went above and beyond to ensure our fur babies were happy and well-cared-for. Tanya kept us updated daily with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were in good hands. Our dogs were well-exercised and looked so content, and our cat, who is usually quite shy, seemed to warm up to her immediately. Her attention to detail and dedication to maintaining their routines made all the difference. We returned home to find our pets relaxed and happy, and it was all thanks to Tanya’s exceptional care. We highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. Thank you, Tanya, for treating our pets like your own!
