About Ruth

Experience: 10 yrs

I am available week nights 5 p.m. - 9PM, and weekends AM/PM. I am a dedicated and compassionate childcare professional with over 10 years of experience providing exceptional childcare to families, as well as a mother to two grown children and a grandmother to two. With a keen eye for safety and a nurturing demeanor, I excel in creating a secure and stimulating environment for children to learn and grow. My expertise in planning engaging activities, coupled with my CPR and First Aid training, ensures that the well-being and development of children are always prioritized. With a proven track record of building strong relationships with both children and parents, I am committed to fostering a positive and supportive atmosphere within every household I work in. I have worked as a nanny, daycare employee, and babysitter for infants and children.

based on 7 reviews

We are two extremely busy professionals who won't allow Disney (or any screen time) to be our babysitter and we seek a judicious balance of constructive engagement and unstructured free play for our 3-year-old. We have the highest opinion of Ruth, who provided support within these constraints. She is both meticulous in paying attention to detail as well as good in providing quality engagement with our child. She leans forward. Ruth did her homework in getting to know our situation & child, and came prepared with a list of activities (indoors and out) that were age and weather-appropriate. Our child was happy and comfortable with her.
