Ms Tara is an outstanding sitter. She's more of my co-parent. I'm a single military mother of 2 boys, 5 yr old and 8 week old. She is very flexible and available anytime. I'm so grateful to have found her and hope to keep her as long as we can. My son loves going to her home and loving family (who treat him as their own) and never wants to leave. She takes him to and from school, helps with school work and plans trips on early days and off days. Her help was even more of a blessing once my son was born and I had to make my trips to the hospital after work for almost 2 months bc of his stay in the NICU. She has always been there for me through my difficult pregnancy and a great friend for advice. She's been available after hours for me when my son would be ill and I had questions on what to do before taking him to the hospital. Saving me time esp now that I have a newborn. As I said before, she is my sons 2nd mother and blessed to have her. I would HIGHLY recommend her to watch your child.
