About Barbara

Experience: 10 yrs

Fostering a child's growth and development is my true passion, and I am dedicated to making a positive impact on the lives of the families I support. With 40 years of experience, I offer professional care for up to three children, ranging from infants to school-aged youth. As a Certified Teacher with a graduate degree in Montessori Early Childhood Education, I bring a wealth of knowledge to my practice. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe environment. I am patient, creative, and always happy to follow your lead regarding household rules. Whether we are playing outdoors, solving puzzles, or working on creative crafts, I love engaging children in meaningful ways. I prioritize clear communication and will provide updates in whichever format you prefer. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my nurturing approach and dedication into your home.

Barbara watched my almost 2 year old last week when she was mildly sick and couldn't go to daycare. She was caring, reliable, and E. warmed right up to her. She was easy going and went with the flow, and I could hear my daughter giggling in delight as they played. Highly recommend!
