About Ry

Experience: 2 yrs

Hi! I'm Ry, a 24-year-old Registered Behavior Technician at an autism clinic who works full-time with children ages 18 months to 8 years old, helping them learn and grow through early intervention. I'm also a certified EMT and spent four years as a volunteer firefighter, so caring for others and staying calm under pressure comes naturally to me. When I'm not working, I'm usually with my dog, Jax, he is my best friend. I'm outgoing, dependable, and love connecting with people in my community. I joined Care. com to earn some extra income while building meaningful relationships with local families. If you're looking for someone who is patient, energetic, responsible, and trustworthy, I'd love the opportunity to support your family and become someone you can count on!

Ry is a reliable, considerate, fun-loving caregiver! He has been a part of my 3 kids’ lives for years, and they love when he takes care of them. He is always full of energy, and is great at planning fun activities for the kids, and is very responsible when taking them to do fun things out of the house. He is responsible with car seat safety (he’s a fireman!), and is always a great communicator when he is with the kids. He has lots of experience working with autistic kids in his professional life, and he pours his heart into his kids. He also volunteers with Boys and Girls Club in his free time. You will not regret hiring Ry to care for your kiddos!
