  • 17 years paid experience
  • Babysitter in Islip Terrace, NY 11752

Meet Tara

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi, I have two children, ages 20 and 16. I am very active and love taking kids to the beach, park museums and etc. I was a Girl Scout leader for 10+ years. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I was also a summer day camp counselor for the YMCA for years. I also babysat the neighborhood kids after school and during the school day when my kids were in school I watched various children at various times from aged newborn and up. Please do not hesitate to ask me any questions as I’m sure that I am forgetting something. I try to answer every question appropriately as far as my pay rate and how many children I am comfortable watching at once but these cannot be discussed as needed.
