Hi everyone! My name is Barbra and a mother of 3 amazing girls! I have tons of experience in child care. I have worked as a nanny for the past 6 years and absolutely love the wonderful families I have met, and the children I truly have adopted in my heart along the way. It's been beyond rewarding and fulfilling for me. I started out as a very young girl caregiving for my Nephew who had a terminal illness. I believe that having had a brother with cancer, and caring for my mother after my father passed away with diabetes and heart issues ihas lead me on a path that I have the most compassion and patience for a child, an elderly person or anyone with a illness. There is nothing more rewarding than coming home at the end of the day knowing you helped someone in need or seeing a child so happy to see your face at the beginning of the day! I truly love what I do! If you consider me, please know you will get a person that gives her "all" to you or your family. I'm the most honest, loyal and punctual person ever! I'm very easy to communicate with, don't take things personally, and love to laugh!
