Barbara’s Bio

I have been a part time caregiver to my elderly father for several years and also to my disabled sister. I know how to speak encouragement to them and calm them. I know how to treat people with the dignity they deserve.

I have reliable transportation and am willing to run errands, do shopping take someone to medical appointments or enjoy outings that we conjure up together. I would also be engaging at home in various activities that are welcomed. I enjoy doing crafts, movement, playing games, etc.

What I lack in caregiver experience, I make up for in love and acceptance.
