About Barbara

I am a resourceful, cheerful and reliable caregiver with more than 10 years experience. "Caregiver" is not just what I do for a living, it is who I am. I try very hard to ensure that things go smoothly for everyone; my clients, my kids, my family and myself. I not only complete the needed tasks - I educate myself and the families I work with about their loved ones needs and follow doctors orders. I pride myself on being attentive, tidy, pleasant and professional. My goal with every client is to provide a safe, healthy environment and a life of dignity. I prefer to work in Manteca or Ripon.
