Hello! My name is Tharne and I'm 33 years old. I was born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa and now reside in Batavia IL with my husband, two kids and Rocky my 1 year old Maine Coon. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, friends or working on my hobbies, which include reading and diy projects. I also enjoy cooking, walks to the park, picnics and bike rides. I started baby sitting when I was 14 years old, taking care of my little brother and have enjoyed it ever since! I have experience with both infants and grade school children. I'm compassionate, bubbly and fun, yet firm, consistent and fair. As a mom, I enjoy keeping the days busy and fun filled. From a day in painting or a day at the zoo, there's always a new adventure around the corner!
