A little bit about me
I’ve been babysitting my nieces and nephews since they were babies for multiple years. I may not be certified but I know what to do in any situation. I love to cook and I clean a lot for my family and understand the basics of home cleanings. I unfortunately won’t have a car with me 24/7 but will have it occasionally as it is a shared vehicle.

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Tara and I am a rising junior at the University of Notre Dame :) My hobbies are listening to music, reading, cooking, or simply updating my portfolio. I have two younger siblings who I love so much and I enjoy taking care of them. I think children are so special and precious, and when I was younger I had the privilege to be taken care of by an amazing nanny so I would just like to pay it forward. This summer I am looking to be a nanny as a way to bond with kids, and just get to know people before my study abroad in Italy :)
