Hello, my name is Tahira. I am a positive, fun, and energetic person who loves working with children. I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education from Tulane University and have over 20 years of experience as a sitter and nanny. My background also includes four years of student teaching, as well as tutoring, coaching, and serving as a camp counselor. I am extremely patient and believe in continual learning, viewing every moment as a potential teaching opportunity. If you are looking for someone with energy, positivity, creativity, and patience, you have come to the right place.
Tahira took care of our baby girl from age 5 to 11 months. She was a loving and attentive nanny, and we always felt that our daughter was safe and happy with her. Tahira came into our house every morning with a smile, and dealing with her was always a pleasure. She is a very smart and young woman, and she understood quickly our desires and requests for our daughter. Our baby can cry very hard, but Tahira was able to comfort her and make her happy, and never seemed to lose her cool. We recommend her highly, and would be happy to talk more about her. She would be great also with older kids: she occasionally looked after our four-year-old when he was sick at home, and they "connected" quickly and had fun together.
