Experience: 10 yrs
For over a decade, I've dedicated myself to providing nurturing and dependable childcare, driven by a passion for supporting families. My approach is patient and friendly, always prioritizing open communication using your preferred method. I readily follow your household rules to maintain consistency for your children. I enjoy engaging kids with outdoor games, puzzles, and educational activities. I am comfortable caring for up to three children aged newborn to 11 years. My qualifications include First Aid Training, CPR Training, Certified Nursing Assistant, Certified Teacher, Early Childhood Education (ECE), and Early Child Development Coursework. I am also happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and travel. I bring a calm and supportive presence to every family I work with, and I look forward to connecting with yours.
Ruthie looked after my 2 children for over a year and we could not have been happier with her. She is warm, caring and thoughtful.
