Meet Tara

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I have worked as a Pre-K through 5th-grade teacher for Vacation Bible School since 2012, and I have also taught religious education classes for middle-school aged children. I have a passion for working with children, and I am in the process of pursuing a degree in Elementary Education. I recently babysat for a family this past summer ('18) for three boys and we had a blast! We took some fun trips to get ice cream or spend some time in the park, and I spent time helping them with their homework and making sure they were practicing their music lessons. I love working with children and am enthusiastic and always up for a fun game of hide and seek or taking an adventure to an imaginary world. I am able to cook and clean, as well as additional household chores. I am comfortable with pets, and I have my own Read more car so pick-ups/drop-offs are possible. I am CPR certified and know what to do in the case of emergency. I look forward to hearing from you!
