A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Taryn Fisher and I am a freshman nursing student at Saint Xavier University, where I am grateful to attend on both a basketball and academic scholarship. I am originally from Carmel, Indiana, and have gained valuable experience working in local childcare centers and daycares, caring for children from 3 months to Pre-K. Through these roles, I have developed strong skills in early childhood care, safety, and creating a positive, nurturing environment. My background in nursing has strengthened my sense of responsibility and attention to detail, while being a student-athlete has taught me discipline, time management, and reliability. I am currently seeking a meaningful connection with a family in need of a dependable and caring babysitter.
