About Tara

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! My name is Tara, and I am an energetic and active 22-year-old! I recently graduated Summa Cum Laude from William and Mary, and was a member of their D1 Lacrosse team. I love working with children, and will be in Monmouth County until January 2025 before I leave for my Fulbright research in Australia! I have extensive experience working with children, having taught at surf camps for five years and babysat since I was 16. I've also worked at numerous lacrosse camps and have a passion for engaging kids in both creative and active pursuits. Additionally, I am CPR certified and have a strong background in tutoring, particularly in STEM subjects. In high school, I played four varsity sports, and can also teach your children how to play certain sports or even how to surf! My goal is to provide safe, creative, and active routine-based care that helps kids learn, grow, enjoy the outdoors, and have fun.

Tara was so friendly and took initiative to connect with my 13 year old son. She was happy to walk my dog too which was so helpful! We were so pleased and will definitely be hiring Tara again!
