About Barbara
Experience: 2 yrs
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.
Most recent review
Barbara was an outstanding babysitter for our family. She communicated exceptionally well before, during, and after the date, giving us confidence that everything was going smoothly. She quickly learned our family’s routines and household rules and followed them with care and consistency. Most importantly, she was kind, patient, and supportive with our three boys, helping them feel comfortable and engaged. We truly appreciated her professionalism, warmth, and reliability.
