About Ruth

Experience: 6 yrs

As a devoted caregiver with seven years of experience, I'm passionate about nurturing children's growth and development. My patient and creative nature allows me to engage children in a variety of activities that foster learning and imagination. I prioritize open communication with parents, providing regular updates and addressing any concerns promptly. While I follow the parents' lead in enforcing household rules, I also strive to create a safe and structured environment for the children in my care. I like doing outdoor activities and educational games. I am certified in early child development, First Aid and CPR training, and experience caring for children of all ages, I'm confident in my ability to provide reliable and nurturing childcare. I provide the care and attention they deserve.

Ruth was wonderful with our 4yo and 5mo girls. My 4yo sometimes gets upset when we leave, but didn’t bat an eye when we left as she played with Ruth! Would definitely recommend and hire again!
