Hi. My name is Ruth but I go by Rubie. I have many years of experience w/children (& pets) from ages 3 months-teenage years. I am flexible in hours/days & willing to travel. I am street/subway savvy & comfortable taking children to educational and fun places like museums, parks, libraries, etc. I am willing to do school drop-off/pick-up, help with homework, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and organizing. I can also do evenings if you want to do date night with your loved one (you deserve it!). I also believe in encouraging independence starting at a young age which I think helps with their self-esteem and a sense of responsibility. I'm very excited to be back in the New York City area and hope I can be of help to your family. I am still in contact with families I've worked for and they can vouch for me. I am also a newly certified PCA.

Ruth is amazing. She's wonderful with my young son, who is so excited to see her every day she picks him up from school. She fills his afternoons with fun and stimulating excursions around Brooklyn; I never worry about them since she's so dependable, conscientious, and savvy. She is proactive and helpful above and beyond just baby-sitting. I highly recommend her and am thankful to have found her.
