About Ruth

Experience: 3 yrs

Hi, my name is Ruth, though I sometimes go by Rue. I have three years of paid childcare experience, along with many years of informal experience when I was younger, and I truly enjoy watching kids grow, learning alongside them, and celebrating their milestones. I am caring, goofy, and playful, bringing fun, warmth, and positivity into a child's day. I also love animals, especially dogs and cats, and enjoy spending time outdoors, whether hiking or going to the beach. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable helping with household tasks such as cleaning, laundry, and other chores. Working with children is incredibly rewarding, as I love supporting their development while giving parents peace of mind.

Miss Ruth was a pleasure to have in our home as part of our child’s support system. She was timely and consistent providing stability for our family’s needs. Miss Ruth pitched-in with regular household tasks and would often ask what else she could assist with. She was ready to provide our son with whatever he needed that day: arts and crafts, reading, adventures out of the house, or outdoor play time….some days included a little bit of each of these! She has a fun-loving personality and is happy to giggle along with your little one!
