About Ruth

Experience: 4 yrs

Before my work experience as a nanny, I raised and home-educated eight children. I also have many years of experience working with babies and children outside my home. Most recently, I spent four years working as a nanny caring for two girls who are now attending school. I have enjoyed working with children and welcome the opportunity to invest in others. I strongly believe in the importance of character and have helped children learn qualities such as patience, diligence, respectfulness, honesty, and gratefulness. I also love reading to children and instilling in them a love of good quality books. My skills include patience; communication (both speaking and listening), which includes the ability to communicate with both the children and the parents; organization and planning; and creativity.

Ruth is a natural nurturer. She brings her kind heart wherever she goes. She supports the whole family. Ruth is a women of integrity. We raised our children together. I now have 7 additional children ages 7-21 adopted thru the foster care system. Ruth is such an encouragement to all of us in the good times and the times of struggle. She has a calming presence about her. Any family will be blessed to have her in their corner.
