A little bit about me

My Name is Ruth and I come from a large family. I am number 9 of 13 siblings. I have 22 nieces and nephews. I love children. I love to clean and organize. Being with children is a rewarding experience. I worked in a birthing center as a Nurse helper for 5 years and it was the most magical thing I ever got to witness; Life! Every child is a different kind of flower, and all together, they make this world a beautiful garden.

The most important part about being a nanny...

First and foremost building trust! Forming a strong emotional bond. Keeping open and transparent communication with the parents. Demonstrating kindness, respect, patience, and good communication. Encouraging intellectual, emotional, and social development through age-appropriate activities and educational play. Being adaptable and flexible. Ensuring the safety and well-being of the children is paramount. Encouraging age-appropriate independence. All children learn differently and it is so vital for me as a nanny to come down to their level so that I may understand what they need or what they are going through. Patience is a virtue!!
