Hello! I'm Ms. Thara, a Virginia state-licensed childcare provider with over 35 years of licensed experience caring for infants through school-age children. I believe childhood should be filled with curiosity, kindness, and joyful learning through play. As a mother of four and grandmother, I understand the trust families place in their childcare provider and strive to create a warm, safe, nurturing environment where every child feels loved, confident, and encouraged to grow. I am bilingual (English/Spanish), CPR and First Aid certified, and a graduate of Mount Holyoke College. Throughout my career, I've developed my own nature-inspired learning activities that help children build language, creativity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a trusted partner in your child's early years. Hablamos Español!
