Hello, my name is Tara and I am so excited for you to read my bio. I have been babysitting children since I was 12 years old with an endless list of references that would love to express their experiences with me and their children. Currently, I am a licensed Speech Language Pathologist in the State of Texas, however I have decided to pursue a full-time nanny position to assist a family with providing love and exceptional care for with their child/children! I have over 15 years of experience working with children with a wide variety of special needs, in addition to, working with children who demonstrate typical development. I have a large "inventory" of educational toys, games, puzzles, and many other learning tools for all ages from my many years as a speech therapist! I love children and can confidently say children love me! I am the type of Read more person that would not even realize if my TV were stolen, because I never sit still long enough to watch anything as I am always highly active. I love going to the park, the zoo, the children’s Museum, swimming, trampoline park, walking around the mall, or even just a play scape at Chick-fil-A or McDonald’s. I strongly believe that children are like little sponges; every day is an adventure full of opportunities to learn no matter what the environment may be! I would love the opportunity to share more about my personal and professional career. Please contact me as I would love to learn details regarding the service you are seeking. I look forward to hearing from you and hope to be of assistance to your family!
