Home Daycares in Sharon

A small-scale daycare, Ms. Tara provides care for just 6 children at a time. As with all home daycares, her program is licensed by the state and she has completed training in childhood ages & stages, medication administration, and food safety. In this mixed-age group program, children get the socialization, stimulation and support they need to learn and grow. Parents are often surprised to discover home daycares like Ms. Tara right in the neighborhood. See more details and take the survey to see if she has an opening for your little one.

I have over 15 years of experience working with children and am excited for many more ahead! After completing a Master’s degree in Home Science Specialization in Extension Education in 1999, I was an owner and Director of a Toddler Preschool Center for 3 years. I then earned my Early Childhood Education Certification as Lead Teacher for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. I also worked as a substitute teacher in public schools in Foxborough, Walpole, and Sharon for a year, before getting a great opportunity to work in Early Intervention as a Group Coordinator and Lead Teacher for babies and toddlers for 3 years. While there, I worked on case studies and did assessments and evaluations. I also got certified as a Development Specialist through the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. It was always my dream ton pursue my own family child care program. Since the time of my master’s, I knew it was my goal. After gaining experience in the field and taking EEC credit courses, I got my EEC license in 2018 and was very excited to open my family child care program in my home setting. I have always focused on my dream of working with children and making an impact on their little minds to nurture learning through fun-based activities. Within my therapeutic environment for playing and learning, I treasure helping the children transition to being independent. What could be better than a day that begins and ends with a smile!

Being a childcare provider means being part of a team – a team that is working toward one goal – happy kids! Parents and caregivers are such an important piece of the puzzle, and communication is key. As a mother myself with a background in ABA therapy, I have a lot of experience working with all types of children, and have learned so much from them over the years. Most importantly, I’ve learned that every child is unique and special in their own way, and that every child has the ability to learn and grow in the right environment! I am so grateful for all the precious moments I get to be a part of, and that I get to teach children about the beauty of life, and how much they can bring to the world just by being themselves.

I have always felt a natural inclination to care for and protect children. To be able to contribute to their physical, emotional, and academic development, always keeping in mind that they are not small adults but growing human beings who need our greatest support, with love and patience. I made an expression of mine: "We can educate and discipline with love".
