Hi, I’m Catherine Tabares! I’m 25 years old and based in the Boston area. I bring over 7 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages and needs. Currently, I’m a science teacher in an inclusive elementary classroom where I support students across multiple grade bands. This role has given me the unique ability to understand and adapt to different personalities, learning styles, and developmental needs—including those of children on the autism spectrum. Before teaching, I worked as an ABA therapist, where I gained valuable experience providing individualized support and building strong connections with children. I’m CPR certified, fluent in Spanish, and deeply committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for every child I care for. Whether your family needs help with after-school routines, bedtime, homework, or just fun and enriching activities, I bring calm energy, creativity, and a deep passion for working with kids. I’d Read more love the opportunity to support your family and help your child thrive!
