Meet Taryn

  • Early Childhood Special Education Certification
  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I took 4 quarters of early childhood education classes at Olympic college under Mary Garguile. The latest child care position I had was a preschool boy and took care of him through kindergarten. They currently still live here in Gig Harbor and are still friends. I volunteered at Purdy Elementary as teachers aids/room parents, helping students with school work and projects. Also chaperoned many field trips and events at the school. I was PTA School Secretary for one year. I am CPR certified and know the safe practices of food handling and blood borne pathogens. I have a ymca membership and would be happy to take your child to classes or just play. I enjoy going for walks or to the park or helping with your any transportation to and from your planned activities. I don’t mind tidying up, running errands, preparing meals or helping with school work.
