About Tahira

Experience: 21 yrs

Hello! My name is Tahira, and caring for children has been one of the greatest joys of my life. I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education from Tulane University and have over 20 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter. My background includes four years of student teaching, as well as tutoring, coaching, and serving as a camp counselor. These experiences have helped me develop a patient, nurturing, and adaptable approach allowing me to connect with children of all ages. I strive to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where children feel supported, encouraged, and valued. Whether through creative play, outdoor activities, reading, or learning opportunities, I believe every interaction can help build confidence, curiosity, and joy. Families often describe me as dependable, energetic, patient, and kind. I would love the opportunity to bring warmth, experience, and genuine care to your family.

Most recent review

Tahira took care of our baby girl from age 5 to 11 months. She was a loving and attentive nanny, and we always felt that our daughter was safe and happy with her. Tahira came into our house every morning with a smile, and dealing with her was always a pleasure. She is a very smart and young woman, and she understood quickly our desires and requests for our daughter. Our baby can cry very hard, but Tahira was able to comfort her and make her happy, and never seemed to lose her cool. We recommend her highly, and would be happy to talk more about her. She would be great also with older kids: she occasionally looked after our four-year-old when he was sick at home, and they "connected" quickly and had fun together.
