About Barbara

My name is Barbara, I'm 26 years old and I'm a graduate student on UMN. I've always loved to take care of children. I'm creative, friendly, and I value open communication with parents. Whether it's verbal or through regular updates, I follow their preferred method of communication. As for rules, I'm very comfortable enforcing them. With me, your child will enjoy educational games and outdoor activities. I'm also a skilled swimmer and would love to teach your child how to swim! I speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish and am happy to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, and supervising swimming. I have CPR training, and I'm always eager to learn and grow in my role. Working with children brings me immeasurable joy, and I look forward to the opportunity to care for yours.
