About Barbara

I have worked with seniors in many capacities over the past 35 years from home care assistance and companion care, to creating community wellness programs/events to education and to support and referral to community resources. Most recently I care for both of my parents before they passed away last year. This experience along with the home care I provided to a special veteran with dementia a few years ago until he passed, made me realize that my heart and soul are in this field. I wish to treat other people's parents as well as I wished for my parents to be treated. I look forward to working with seniors while providing respectful, loving and gentle care that they deserve!
