Meet Tara

  • Comfortable with pets

Hello, I am a mother of three , 24 yr old twin boys and 10 yr old girl. I was a special education paraeducator for l.a.u.s.d for over 20 yrs, and a foster parent for La county for 4 years until covid. I have always surrounded myself with children, many of my outside activities are with my daughter, her friends or cousins. Babysitting was my first job as a young teenager of age 13, I was always the go to and I have yet to meet a child that do not like me 😊 I am thinking of eventually returning to teaching, maybe transfer to one of the many school districts in the Av, however I am undecided as of now. So, until then, I'd like to utilize my many years of experience working with children of all ages but in a less challenging environment outside of the classroom. This Read more will allow me to still be of service to parents who needs someone to love on, protect, and assist with they children to help make thier lives a bit easier.
