I have experience working with children's for 17 years, from newborns until the age of 16. I have my own three girls (11, 10 & 5 years old) & love being with other children as well. I do help children to accomplish what their parents expect. I consider myself being patient, loving, helpful, and understandable! I do engage children age appropriate activities both indoors and outdoors. I would love to give care for all ages up to three kids, including those who need special care with or without, who needs administering medication. I've worked with children's type 1 diabetes, epilepsy, ADD, Down syndrome, and kids with cardiovascular problems, etc!

I hired Ms. Ru to watch my infant son and she was the best thing that ever happened to my family. My son has a genetic cardiac condition so I was nervous to have someone watch him. However, Ms. Ru quickly calmed my nerves. My son loved her and always looked forward to the days that she would come. If the weather permitted, they were outside or at the park all the time. She cared for him like he was her own child and I felt so comfortable with her in my home. I cannot recommend her enough. 

She is super gentle and kind in her care. I am a nurse and found her extremely thorough in her bedside manners when she took care of me post knee surgery 

A Nanny Worth Her Weight in Gold

We were so fortunate to have found Ruhama to care for our newborn daughter. As first-time parents, we were overwhelmed and exhausted, but Ruhama provided us with the much-needed respite and peace of mind
.
She was always punctual, reliable, and incredibly sweet with our baby. Her gentle nature and calming presence put us at ease immediately. Ruhama was attentive to our daughter's needs and kept a detailed log of her feedings, diaper changes, and sleep patterns.

Thanks to her care, we were able to get the restful sleep we desperately needed. We highly recommend Ruhama to any parent in search of a trustworthy and compassionate nanny.

Ruhama was our daughter's caregiver for 6 months (age 3-9 months).  We had some feeding challenges and our daughter came home very underweight. Ruhama gave phenomenal care, attention to detail, and showed our daughter so much love while helping us navigate a challenging time. We still keep in touch with her. She is such a special person and caregiver!

Ruhama watched our toddler and was wonderful with him. She has a very calm, caring presence and was comfortable with him immediately. We appreciated that she kept him engaged with outdoor activity and play, and also was proactive in cleaning up his toys, dishes, etc. We were very impressed and will definitely use her again!

Working with Ru was awesome! She was on time, professional, trustworthy, and so sweet and helpful with our kiddo. Her warm and gentle way is perfect for kids who may be on the shyer side, like ours. And she is a very experienced nanny who has worked with kids of all ages. We would not hesitate to hire her again. 

Ruhama was absolutely the best caregiver to my grandson !  She was prompt and very knowledgeable about early child care ! She was employed privately with us for as long as she chose to be ,,, 

Ruh was wonderful - kind, patient, & flexible during a quite chaotic wedding weekend. Her sweet demeanor made her easy to work with.  I knew my daughter was in great hands in her care. 

Ru, is genuinely a kind and caring human who cares deeply for Littles. Whenever I call for help to care for my 6 and 1 year old, Ru always shows up prepared a bit earlier than planned, always takes time to greet my kids probably, have them settle in and asks all the questions that may make them more comfortable. 

She’s reliable, trustworthy, caring and overall an amazing well rounded caregiver to my little family.


Ru was wonderful with our 8 month old daughter, kept her schedule, and had great communication with us all throughout the day. We will certainly have her back! 

Ru has watched our boys, 2 and 5, periodically for the last couple of months on date nights and long work days. Ru has been great at developing a relationship with the boys, they now eagerly greet her at the door and play very energetic games, indoors and outside. Ru has done a good job at adjusting to each of our boy's personalities with one being shy and one being controlling. She's also been amazing at always leaving the house better than she found it.

Ruhama is our #1 go-to babysitter. We feel that she cares for our son as she would care for her own children. She is reliable, possesses a strong work ethic and attention to detail, going above and beyond on a daily basis. She is proactive about communicating any questions or concerns that arise. She has a passion for her job and it shows. Our son absolutely adores her and lights up whenever she arrives at our door!

Ruhama is a wonderful caregiver to our 3 month old baby. She always asks about her schedule and makes sure she checks in as the day is progressing regarding nap lengths and activities. She also helps us with cleaning and housework. We love working with her!

Ruhama is a phenomenal caretaker. She looked after my newborn for a week while her nanny was on vacation and immediately bonded with her. She worked with her on her development and quickly shaped a routine that the whole family (including our dog who didn’t want to be left out!) was happy with. She went out of her way to be helpful in every way. Ruhama is a natural when babies. I can’t recommend her enough! 

Ru was on time, very professional, and understanding. My children had a great time with her. I definitely recommend her.

Ruhama was my son's full-time caregiver for 3 months and our go-to nanny for temporary care outside of that time while his school was unexpectedly closed. We lucked out with Ruhama! Not only is she prompt and reliable, and great at what she does (she truly is a pro), she is so very kind and compassionate and genuinely cares for our son. We always feel happy and confident when our son is with Ruhama and would recommend her in a heartbeat. 

She’s great, professional sweet respectful caring loving kind person.
Ms. Ruhama is not only my son caregiver, we consider her part of our family. We are so grateful for her support respect and love that she has shown for my son and my family. My son loves her and really enjoys her company, thank you so much for everything what you have done for us Ms Ru.❤️

We loved Ruhama! Our son had a great time with her and she was so flexible and wonderful. I came home to a clean kitchen and a wonderful person who was happy to be there with our son. 5 Stars!
