About Barbara

I've been working with kids since 2020 (from babies to teenagers), including special needs kids (autism, behavioral, and learning challenges). I'm certified in Advanced Child Care (American Red Cross) and CPR/First Aid (National CPR Foundation). Since September 2025, I've cared for a 2-year-old toddler, handling meals, naps, baths, playtime, pickups, dinner, and lunch boxes, and assisting with household tasks like laundry and meal prep. Previously, I cared for a 7-month-old baby girl in Berkeley, two siblings in Orinda, a toddler from 7 months to preschool, and was an Au Pair in Maryland for three boys on the autism spectrum. In Brazil, I worked at a daycare with 50 children, supporting toddlers with special needs.
