About Barbara
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! I have been a professional nanny / house manager for over 25 years and have helped many families. I am a certified newborn care specialist. I have experience with twins and special needs children. I have tutored and helped school age children with homework. Although the children come first, I am happy to help out with all home chores, including laundry, light housekeeping, shopping, running errands, caring for pets, cooking, etc. I have a perfect driving record and happy to transport children, if needed. I am CPR certified and a college graduate. I am fully vaccinated and am extremely Covid safe. I also get my flu shot annually. When I had my children, who are now grown, I decided to work in childcare. This enabled me to stay closer to my kids. I soon realized that I had found my passion! I have an extensive resume as well as many references that are available at your request. I look forward to hearing from wonderful families!

Barbara has worked with us for the last few months, and would still be working with us if she was not moving. Although it breaks our hearts to lose Barbara, we know that she will be an amazing addition to another family. Barbara is punctual, flexible, loving, creative, and a true miracle worker. She was able to oversee my oldest son's online learning, while still entertaining my youngest. The ease at which she did all of this and kept the boys fed and happy, leaves me in awe. (My boys are 3 and 6, and with the amount they eat daily, feeding them could be a full time job.) Both of my boys light up when they would see Barbara. My whole family absolutely adores her. Having Barbara here has been a blessing, she has brought so much joy to my family and has made me going back to work as stress-free as possible. I cannot say enough good things about Barbara, and I know that you will feel the same about her.
