Retired legal secretary to senior partner of a Cranford law firm, as well as former owner of a home-based medical/legal transcription company for 30+ years, wife, mother of two daughters, "MiMi" to two granddaughters, dog mom. I started a Personal Assistant service in 2019 after quickly realizing I am too young and energetic to fully retire. I am smart, reliable, dependable, resourceful, honest, and high energy, with a great sense of humor! I like to do a variety of things including running errands, grocery and gift shopping, picking up the kids, assisting with party planning, vet visits, etc. Non-smoker, own transportation. My hobbies include scrapbooking and card making. I would be an asset to any client who needs more time in their day! References and criminal background check are available.

    Barbara is an extremely reliable and trustworthy caregiver. She has been driving my kids from school consistently for a few months and we've never had a problem. She truly cares about the kids and engages with them, and is flexible when changes arise. I would recommend her highly!
