About Barbara

I come giving compassion and respect and treat people how I would like to be treated. I became a caregiver to give back compassionate service to those in need like I had received over the years. In giving the love, compassion and respect through exceptional communication with people, I have received hugs, some saying that they love me and that they thank GOD I was sent to them. With that I know I have accomplished my mission.

    I have a been a personal caregiver for over 18years I started out working as a Cna in nursing home and I thoroughly enjoy and love the helping others out. It is very fulfilling to me knowing I can help out in any way I can by just simply being there when they need someone. In addition to providing companionship, I can help monitor medications, prepare delicious meals, keep home and laundry clean, transport to Doctors appointments, etc. Your loved one will be in good hands when they are with me.

    I really enjoy taking time from my personal life to help someone else in need. I find I learn a lot working as a caregiver which gives me joy to know I'm able to be a caregiver. I find that I like the most about being a caregiver is developing new relationships and being able to carryout my duties as a caregiver. My most personal achievement is being able to help my daughter spell her name so she can be success in school. I'm very creative in my everyday life to ensure I learn new skills. My biggest drive is staying positive and strive for better to obtain goals in life.
