Hi, My name is Tamara. I love children and have worked with them my entire life. I am the second to the oldest in a family of 5 children. I also am the mother of an adult daughter. I have worked as a Nanny the last 12 years. I was working with a family of three children aged 12,13,and 14. They now no longer need a Nanny so I am looking for a new family.. I have known them since the youngest was one month old and worked with them part-time until Covid. Then with covid I worked with them full time while the kids were home from school. This past year I worked with them mainly mornings and after school. It is bittersweet to see the children grow up and I have missed working with the children the last few months. I have worked with children in Pre-Schools, Day-Cares Read more and as a substitute elementary school teacher. I neither drink nor smoke and I have reliable transportation. I currently have open availability. I also have evenings and weekends available. I love working with children of all ages. I especially enjoy reading with children as well as baking, crafts, going to the park. If you feel that I would be a good fit for your family then I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

Tamara is a great asset to any family. She is kind, patient, calm, and caring with our 2 young boys (3 and 1 1/2). She especially loves reading to them (as they love it too) and she always comes with a load of new books. Often, my kids can't wait for us to leave so they can spend time reading with her. She has a ton of experience and is very good at handling meals/and bed/naptime. She is also very reliable, trustworthy and respectful of our requests. We feel blessed to have found her as she is the best caregiver we have had.
