About Ruth

Experience: 2 yrs

Hello! My name is Ruth, and I am a compassionate caregiver bringing a unique blend of companion care, childcare, and high-level culinary expertise to your home. I have been a professional cook and chef for most of the last 25 years, so I am incredibly comfortable in the kitchen and love preparing delicious, customized meals. My primary focus is senior companion care, where I bring 3 years of dedicated experience supporting an individual over 86 years old. I provide warm companionship, manage grocery shopping, handle light cleaning, laundry, plant care, and offer safe transportation for errands and appointments. I also have a lifelong comfort level with children, including 9 months of professional daycare experience (ages 3 months to 9 years). I am fully skilled in infant and toddler care, from feeding them, changing diapers to rocking them to sleep. Additionally, I am an absolute animal lover who adores cats, dogs, and horses. I look forward to bringing reliable care to your home!

Ruth is extremely caring and capable! I recently broke an ankle and needed help with a shower. She was very helpful in making sure I was safe and got my needs taken care of. In addition, she willingly started the load of towels that needed washing, vacuumed, straightened up the kitchen and other things that needed attention. I will not hesitate to reach out to Ruth if I need further assistance and highly recommend her! Cathy H.
