About Barbara

Allow me to lift the burden of remembering and completing your daily responsibilities and tasks. I have cared for many family members and friends when they needed a hand most be it post surgical, maturing age or terminal illness. Experience with: multiple medication prompting/scheduling; wound care; dr. appointments; senior exercise; meditation; basic first aide/nursing aide; CPR certified. I am happy to help with housekeeping, food prep, errands or simply helping you get out and about to stay active and stimulated. A little about me personally... I have raised 6 successful children solo. I enjoy decorating, antiques, cooking, children, gardening, movies, a quick wit and a good sense of humor. I am protective, loyal, genuine and speak proper English. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have as finding the right care giver is an important and very personal decision. Many Thanks, Barbara :)

I really enjoy helping the patient comfortable in their own space. My grandfather and the way he was treated in a nursing home. He just wanted to be at his home. Helping my patient feel comfortable and relaxed. Letting him or her tell stories about the past,love,kids, what it was like in the old days. Being there for them when they need me most. Making them feel useful and they do matter
