About Barbara

My name's Barbara and I was born in Poland. I started working as a caregiver over 20 years ago for a neighbor's elderly mother whom was paralyzed. Since then I have cherished my time with the hundreds of patients I visited because I see that a genuine helping hand can produce a genuine smile. Studying economy in collage decades ago, I didn't think fulfilment would come from a hands on work environment. However, over the years of being a health aid and more importantly a friend to my patients, this profession continues to be rewarding and am thus proud I can help others.

Hello, I consider myself a warm, compassionate person with a gift of patience. I empathize with many because I know what it feels like to need someone one to lend a hand and how difficult it may be to ask for that help when needed. At age 15, I cared for my dying mother and father, and decided to dedicate my life to be of service to others who could no longer care for themselves. I can honestly say that care giving brings out the best in me. When I see a need, whether it be physical, mental or spiritual one, I am challenged to work with the families to help fulfill that need. Everyone deserves that kind of experience in life and I believe everyone needs somebody. I am very proud to be a caregiver for the last 35 years and the families I have met have enriched my life and have helped me grow as a person. Care giving is a choice to make the world a better place.
