About Tara

Experience: 3 yrs

I'd describe my personality as patient, self motivating, and caring. I love working with kids because they bring excitement and a different perspective to things! I started working with kids since highschool about 12 years ago on and off. From baby sitting, to summer camps, and even working in elementary schools as a special education paraprofessional. My current work is at a therapeutic day school for autistic kids. In my spare time, I like to spend time outside being active, going to the beach, trying out new restaurants and spending quality time with family and friends!

I can’t recommend Tara enough for child care of all ages. She has taken care of my 2 kids on any occasion where my wife and I need a break. She is trusting, checks in frequently, and my kids feel so safe with her. She knows how to have fun with kids, is lighthearted and caring, and is incredibly responsible. I will always trust Tara with my kids
