Meet Dara

  • Comfortable with pets

I am a nanny, an educator and an ABA behavior technician who loves being a core part of a child's growth and happiness! My work as a nanny, a teacher, and a specialist for children with autism, has given me the tools and experience to support children and their families through their social, academic and private needs. I also enjoy encouraging the creative exploration of children, through guided art, cooking and gardening lessons, to help them broaden their skills and interests as they grow. I want to be an active participant in your family, by directly supporting and caring for your child, and supporting you as the parent! I am open to full-time and part-time live-in and live-out roles.
