Meet Barbara

Hi there! I'm a state-certified teacher with a degree in Elementary Education and over 23 years of experience working with children from kindergarten through middle school. I'm currently seeking temporary opportunities while I thoughtfully explore my next full-time teaching position. (I'm taking my time to find the perfect fit!) Teaching is truly my passion, and I especially love helping kids with homework and academic support. That said, I'm just as happy to spend time playing, crafting, or simply hanging out and having fun. I believe in creating a safe, joyful space where kids feel seen, supported, and free to be themselves. I’m also an animal lover (yes, even the scaly ones!) and share my home with a dog and a cat, so I’m more than happy to help with pet care too. If you're looking for someone who brings both heart and expertise to your child's day, I’d love to Read more connect!
