About Tara

Experience: 20 yrs

For two decades, I've nurtured young minds and fostered joyful learning environments. My passion stems from a deep-seated desire to positively influence children's lives, an interest that grew from early babysitting experiences. I am patient, creative, and approachable, and I communicate openly with parents, adapting to their preferred methods for daily updates or addressing any concerns. I am comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy engaging children with outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. My skills include First Aid Training and CPR Training. I am also knowledgeable in Early Childhood Education (ECE) and have completed Early Child Development Coursework. I am happy to help with cooking, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision. I am comfortable caring for up to two children, ages 0-11, but I am particularly experienced with toddlers. My graduate studies have further enhanced my understanding of child development.
