About Barbara

Hi, my name is Barbara. I became a caregiver over 3 years ago. I used to be personal banker working in retirement community. After I was laid of from banking industry I decided to look for a caregiver position. I really like to work with elderly people, helping them to live, full, independent and dignified lives within the comfort of their own homes. I feel that this type of work is very rewarding and I'm doing something for others. I'm proud of doing such a good job as a caregiver. I believe since I'm positive thinker with good sense of humor , helps me to communicate with my potential clients and help to cheer them up. I live in Surprise Az for a long time. Worked as a banker for almost 20 years in Arizona and in Chicago. I like sports like swimming and aerobic, books and I love to travel.
