Meet Tyra

  • Early Childhood Special Education Certification

Hello, My name is Tyra — I currently am a Deputy Sheriff for Arlington VA. Prior to becoming a Sheriff, I was a early childhood educator (2012-2017). While in that career field, I was completely drawn to infants — that was my “speciality”. I graduated from North Point High School (a Stem School) in Waldorf MD in the Education Careers program. In the program I learned how to properly teach, and nurture young children. I also learned how to create lesson plans that meet the needs of the child. I‘m sure your wondering “what made you leave childcare?” Well, I also developed a passion for Law Enforcement and decided to take it on as a career. At this point in my life, I’m looking to return to my real passion which is teaching and caring for young children. I was a part-time nanny in the past to an amazing kiddo Read more until he began middle school. I am First Aid/CPR/AED Certified
