About Tara

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi my name is Tara and I have always had a passion for caring for children. Growing up in my hometown of West Orange, I babysat for many local children. In HS I was involved in the Child Development program which preschooled kids in the area. After HS I worked at Rainbow Child Care Center in Roseland as the head infant room caregiver. I was there about 5 years and in my time cared for children from infancy to preschool aged. After leaving there I worked at another Child Care Center and also nannied for 1 little boy for about 2 years. I eventually started my own family and have three boys. I stayed home for about 8 years raising my boys and they are all in school full time. After going back to work for about 2 years now doing administrative work, I find myself missing the joy that came along with caring for children. I'm seeking a full-time position. I'm a very loving, honest, loyal, extremely organized, punctual and fun person. I hope I can be a help to you and your family.
