About Barbara

I became a care giver because even at an early age, I was a nurturer always trying to find ways to make others feel good. I really find joy in helping others and providing companionship and support to those in my care. One achievement that I'm proud of is becoming an LPN, which is also a tool in preparation for my future goals to become a Registered Nurse.
