About Tamami
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello! I believe in providing nurturing, creative, loving care for young children who are just beginning to make sense of their world. I look forward to being a part of your child's life, and am committed to being a positive support for your little one(s) to have engaged, joyful care. I am currently enrolled in a Holistic Leadership Masters program and have a background in Psychology and Holistic Health. In the past I have worked as a toddler teacher in a daycare and have provided care for children aged 3 months to 15 years of age. In the summers, I direct a week long summer camp for elementary through high school aged students. I am comfortable following a family's schedule and doing meal prep, light cleaning, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and day trips. My priority is to become familiar with your family's culture to be able to act as a natural extension for your little one. It is important to me to support your child to feel secure so they can explore and learn.

We have hired Tamami for the last 7 years, on and off. She is very reliable and great with my 3 children! She has a very kind disposition but is also very creative and firm when it comes to disobedience or unwanted behavior. She is great at coming up with activities for the children (mine range from age 2 to 7) while at the same time also expanding their minds, challenging them, and helping them learn new concepts. She is very patient. She took care of my children even when they were difficult newborns up until now, and she was miraculously able to get them to take naps at times when I was not! I HIGHLY recommend her for anyone looking for someone loving, caring, fun, and responsible. We moved about an hour away to NH, otherwise, we'd definitely keep her for ourselves! Please feel free to contact me as a reference.
