About Tara

Experience: 18 yrs

Responsible, caring, creative & funny. Kids are fun to play/work with & a joy to teach/learn from. A flexible schedule. My husband is a Mariner & I am an artist. When he's at sea I paint, teach & caregiver. When we aren't working we travel the world. I bring a wealth of knowledge, dedication & experience with me to every individual job. In my late teens I worked for the Bellevue, WA based Nanny Agency & (Seattle, WA based) as an On-Call Nanny & New Mothers Helper. I worked for both of these companies through my first three years of college, until I married and had two children of my own. In my spare time, I do my painting, photography, write & garden. When I'm not, I'm traveling, hiking & kayaking. I connect with kids/people and animals more than the average person. That tied with my creativity, tends to be above average and set me apart. Top 3 child care skills are compassion to individual needs, creativity in situations & levelheaded with first aid.
