Hi, I’m Tara! Just to tell you about my self a little, Id describe my personality as attentive, easygoing, and loving/caring. I like working with kids because not enough people do. Kids are great to be around and remind you daily, through their simple actions, to look on the brighter side and stay creative! I'm looking for a job that is longer term preferably. I think it's healthiest for a child/family to have a sitter that is consistent. I started working with kids when I was a kid myself. My mom has been working in childcare for over 30 years. Naturally I started working with kids when I was young, but paid I've been working with kids on and off since I was 14 (10 years now). I grew up with pets and briefly went to school for zoology so I’m complexity fine with animals around. Im also okay with Read more light housekeeping. I can also at any point send my updated 2022 background check and driving records:)
