About Ruth

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello my name is Ruth, and I love working with kids! I'm a graduate student at Rush University pursuing a doctorate in Audiology. I have experience caring for children of all ages, ranging from infants to preteens. Additionally, I have experience tutoring children in their homes. I have a personality that is very happy, positive, and energetic but also patient, compassionate, responsible, and mature. I love the outdoors, arts and crafts, sports, but most of all getting kids engaged in fun and enriching activities! In addition to childcare, I provide cooking, light cleaning, and pet-sitting services. Available for occasional/date-night babysitting. *COVID-19 Vaccinated *AHA CPR certified

Ruth helped us with our 1 year old granddaughter and 2 year old grandson before and during my daughter's wedding in June 2019. The children loved her sweet and quiet demeanor. Ruth is an incredibly capable and helpful child care expert. She knew when the children needed to take naps and took care to insure the were fed and entertained on a long day. I highly recommend Ruth and we will hire her again if we need help with the little ones. I felt 100% comfortable that our grandchildren were safe and well cared for when Ruth was taken care of them.
