Experience: 10 yrs
With nearly a decade of experience as an elementary teacher (TK-3rd grade), I bring expertise in childhood development and a hands-on, playful style that fosters growth. I create engaging environments that support development, build confidence, and spark curiosity. In addition to childcare, I'm happy to assist with educational needs like homework help or tutoring, as well as household tasks. My professional background ensures patient, personalized care tailored to each child's unique needs.
Tara was wonderful with my two children ages 4 and 6. She was always on time, and helped our mornings run a little smoother! She had no issues making breakfast, packing lunches, and helping to get the kids ready for school each morning in a short amount of time. She was always pleasant, and never lost her cool with the children, especially when they had big emotions. Tara helped with returns, grocery shopping, and misc household tasks while the children were at school. She would be a great asset for any family!
