About Barbara

Because I did volunteer work with seniors and really enjoyed it for over 7 years. So I went on and got my CNA. I love to see my clients be able to relax and know that they are in good hands. My mother had to move in with me when she started fainting and falling down. That's when I realized how much seniors need someone they trust and can count on to be there for them when they need them.

    Ive been a CNA for 20 yrs, received my license in North Carolina in 2001 and in Virginia in 2009. I believe the most important thing that makes me a great CNAs is patience and understanding. The reason why I became a CNA is I find joy in the elderly. They are knowledgeable, they make you laugh,and you can learn alot from them. I get great joy in seeing the smiles on their faces because they're pleased with me.
