Hi, I'm a college student who loves to help others! When I’m not working with children at a museum, I’m looking after families like yours. I use empathy, patience, and years of experience to care for your loved ones. I have reliable transportation and am always ready on short notice. I’d love to meet and assist you in any way possible!
“Ruby is a wonderful babysitter—calm, intelligent, and compassionate. She quickly understands what needs to be done, takes initiative without being asked, and is always ready to help in any situation. Her thoughtful and gentle approach creates a safe, happy environment for children, and her quick thinking gives parents peace of mind. Highly recommended. ”
