I’m Tara.
An Australian Social Worker, registered in Germany, raising my children in Dresden. I help mothers navigate the German system with confidence and protect their children through one of life’s biggest transitions.

You’ve planned everything. And you’re still terrified.
Not a blogger. Not a fellow expat with good advice. A registered professional.
Qualified Social Worker
10 years supporting children and families through complex transitions in Australia and Germany. Staatlich anerkannte Sozialarbeiterin.
Registered in Germany
I hold the Staatliche Anerkennung — Germany’s qualification recognition for Social Workers. I work within the German social work system, in German.
Children’s Development Specialist
Specialist knowledge in child attachment, resilience, and emotional regulation during transitions. Evidence-based, not general advice.
German System Insider
I have personally navigated Anmeldung, Kita registration, school enrolment, Krankenkasse, the Auslanderbehorde, and professional recognition in Germany.
Mother of Two in Germany
I raised my children through the same transition you are facing — both the systemic barriers and the emotional ones, from the inside.
ESL-Qualified
As a qualified English as a Second Language teacher, I work effectively with multilingual families and support your children’s language transitions.
Wherever you are in your move, there is a next step I can help you take.
