Experience: 19 yrs
I have experience working with children's for 19+ years, from newborns until the age of 16 including those who neede specially care. I have my own three girls (13, 12 & 7 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, ADHD, Down syndrome, kids with cardiovascular problems, Autism etc! I've given medication for those who needs and I'm willing to help if family need help. Vaccines are up to date for Tdap, Hepatitis, MMR, Influenza (Flu) Vaccine and Covid.
Ruhama is an extraordinary babysitter and nanny. She cared for our baby from ages 3 months onward and was a true gift to our whole family. She's loving, intuitive, patient, gentle, and kind. With Ruhama watching our daughter, we could rest assured that she was not only in completely safe and competent hands but alos loved deeply. Ruhama is a gem and if you've come across her profile somehow, you're very lucky!
