About Ruth

Experience: 18 yrs

Nurturing a child's development and making a meaningful impact on their life has been my professional focus for 18 years. I hold a college degree and maintain current CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe environment for the three children I support. My personality is patient, calm, and creative, which helps me foster a warm space for kids ages newborn through 12. I enjoy engaging children with educational games, puzzles, and board games. Since I am a skilled swimmer, I am happy to provide swimming supervision during outings. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules and am happy to assist with meal preparation, crafts, and carpooling. I prioritize your preferred communication style for daily updates. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life and helping your children flourish.

Ruth is a true professional! She watches our three young children 25 hours a week. We would love to keep Ruth longer but we are leaving the area. Ruth connects well with all of our children, takes the kids out to the playground, library, etc. Ruth is reliable, trustworthy, consistent, and caring. The kids have so much fun with Ruth, and they know what to expect each day. Ruth is easy to get along with and very communicative. I have no hesitations in recommending Ruth to anyone! If you are looking for a professional nanny (beyond a babysitter), look no further.
