My passion lies in fostering the well-being and independence of adults and seniors. For over 10 years, I have provided reliable care and support to families. I'm also an End-of-Life Doula / Grief Counselor. I am CPR and First Aid certified. My approach is compassionate and detail-oriented. I focus on understanding each person's preferences and history. I adapt to changing routines, handle confusion, and incorporate memory care activities. I offer respite care, personal care, light housekeeping, transportation, med management, companionship and meal preparation. I communicate through written reports and according to each family's preferences. I have my own reliable transportation and comfortable with pets. I look forward to discussing how I can help you or your loved one thrive. I do have references from former clients.
We are so pleased we met Barbara and highly recommend her for senior care. Her approach with kindness, patience, and gentle nudges is a great fit with our aging mother who has very limited mobility. In a short time we have already noticed that Barbara’s influence and companionship has helped her to think about her physical activity more, engage and connect. Barbara is a good communicator, maintains a positive attitude, has suggestions for physical activities, and makes supportive suggestions to ensure the house remains free of trip hazards and is kept organized. Food prep and meals prep have proved to be super helpful too!
