Aloha my name is Tara, I have been working with kiddos for more than 10 years. I coached gymnastics for 5 years and have been nannying for almost 7 years now. I have experience with infants as well. In my free time in enjoy anything that requires being outside or has a creative outlet of some sort. I paint, sing, play guitar and also enjoy hiking and surfing. I was also a short term private chef for a family during the pandemic and enjoy cooking very much so I don't mind preparing meals if needed. Children bring me so much joy and I’m very passionate about caregiving. I hope to be a positive influence in their life as well. Looking forward to hopefully meet you soon! :)
