About Barbara
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Compassionate and caring mature elder care companion offering assistance to clients including light housekeeping, errands, local drives, light meal prep, medication reminders and activities such as hobbies. I enjoyed taking care of my elderly parents very much for many years and understand how important it is for clients and families to find a responsible, reliable caring professional to help out when necessary. I am a very positive person and try to bring a bit of joy to my clients lives, as well. My hobbies include reading, walking, enjoying the arts such as theatre, music, movies, art galleries, and playing tennis. I can also speak basic conversational Spanish.

As my former employee for 4 years, I found Barbara to be an enthusiastic and very engaging professional whom I am very happy to recommend for elder care work. She is very reliable, and always got along well with my clients. She has a very upbeat and positive outlook on life which informs the way she approaches her work. In addition, I know her to be very kind and compassionate with those she comes into contact with. It's without hesitation that I recommend Barbara in this capacity to work with the elderly.
