About Barbara

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am from West Virginia. I went to school there. I have taken a CPR class. I used to volunteer at a hospital in pediatrics helping with the newborns. I used to take care of children part-time with my children. I have lived in CT for 26 years. I am a mother of 4 grown children and a grandmother of 6 beautiful grandchildren. I was fortunate to be able to be a part of helping with them - from colic, teething, potty training, etc., and have loved every minute of it. I have a lot of experience with newborns, toddlers, preteens and teens. I have also taken care of neighbors & friends children. I love taking care of children and interacting with them. I am a caregiver for elderly people. Also, I worked in a corporate office for years. I am a nanny and I love it. the two children I was taking care of are older I was with them for four years. so I am ready for a journey with a new family.

Barbara has been an exceptional caregiver to Leo and has treated him like a part of her own family. Her experience and dedication to her work have been evident in the progress Leo has made under her care. Barbara's experience as a caretaker is truly remarkable. She possesses a wealth of knowledge and skills that have been invaluable in providing Leo with the care and attention he needed. Barbara's expertise and understanding of child development have been essential in helping Leo reach his developmental milestones. With her guidance, Leo has learned to walk and speak on schedule, and he has made incredible progress under her care. What really sets Barbara apart is her personal touch. This has made all the difference in Leo's development, as he has felt safe and secure in her care. Barbara has also been a fantastic communicator, keeping Leo's (first-timer) parents informed about his progress and any concerns that arise. Overall, I cannot recommend Barbara highly enough. She has been a tremendous asset to Leo's development and has gone above and beyond in her role as his caretaker. Her experience, dedication, and personal touch have made all the difference in Leo's progress. Thank you, Barbara, for everything you have done for us!
