Hello, I am Barbara. I have always considered myself a homemaker first, although I have held careers in the corporate world. I love taking care of children and offer my experience to a family that needs support. I will care for your child, tidy up, run errands, cook, homework help and your children will always be safe with me. I dearly love babies to small children as it is a special pleasure to care for them as they discover the world. I am a warm and friendly caregiver who is reliable, tactful and understanding of your preferences. My goal is to support your style of parenting to blend in with your family. I am not shy about guiding your children with gentle redirection and still have fun. I love taking the children to the parks, walks, reading and healthy playtime while keeping to a schedule that you request. As a mother who has raised two children I understand your challenges. I will furnish my references upon request as this is a privacy issue for my families. Warmly, Barbara
