Hello, my name is Tarah. I have been working with the special needs community since I was 17. I am a mother to an amazing 15-year-old who has ASD and SPD. I have experienced with both children and adults with exceptional needs. I worked as a developmental specialist for over 4 years with special needs adults before becoming a manager in a group home for children. Currently I am an exceptional needs nanny. I have four children in my care, two of whom have special needs. The children are growing up and the youngest will be starting pre-K in the fall. I will be available to start work this summer as we transition the youngest. I understand both personally and professionally the needs families of exceptional needs individuals have. Assisting individuals and their families is my passion and I am blessed to do what I love every day.
