Find nannies in Winnetka, CA

Hi! :) My name is Ruby, and I’m a sitter who genuinely loves working with kids and being someone families can rely on. I grew up helping raise my nieces and nephews, so childcare has always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for children ranging from infants to middle school age, including early mornings and full-day care while parents were at work. I’m comfortable with diaper changes, bottle feeding, meal prep, bedtime routines, and light household tasks like dishes and laundry. Since joining UrbanSitter, I’ve also gained experience working with different families and adapting to different routines, parenting styles, and age groups. One of my nephews has nut and egg allergies (and previously had a milk allergy), so I’m very cautious about food safety and always pay close attention to labels and cross-contamination. Safety is always my top priority. I also love keeping kids engaged with fun but meaningful activities like puzzles, reading, music and dancing, crafts, and little learning games. I enjoy finding creative ways to make activities both entertaining and educational. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, currently finishing school through homeschooling, and working toward getting my CPR/First Aid certification and driver’s license. I’m responsible, patient, outgoing, and truly enjoy building positive connections with the kids I care for. Although professional babysitting/nannying is still fairly new to me, childcare itself has always been a big part of my life, and I’ve continued gaining experience through the families I’ve worked with on UrbanSitter. I’m confident in my ability to provide a safe, dependable, and positive environment for the kids I care for, and I’m always willing to learn and grow with each family I work with.

Parents who have entrusted me to care for their children, pets, homes have said that I have a natural ability to anticipate needs, stay calm under pressure, and create a safe, positive environment. I'm responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. As an actor and creative person, I love engaging kids through imaginative play, reading, arts and crafts, games, and outdoor activities. I'm also happy to help with homework, meal preparation, school pickups, bedtime routines, and light household tasks. My goal is to make children feel supported, safe, and encouraged while giving parents confidence that everything is being handled with care and attention. I am literally the go-to for random unanticipated scenarios. Forgot your bridesmaids dress in you car at the flyaway and need someone to go to your house, grab the key, find the car in the flyaway parking lot, grab the dress, drive to LAX, and hand it over to you? I’m your girl. Yes, that’s a true story and she made her flight! I was the hero of that wedding and I didn’t even know the bride or groom. I’m able to quickly assess what a situation needs to ensure a calm and safe environment for children. I’ve handled bed times for double date nights when the couples would be expected home late. One of their daughters (6) was having trouble sleeping. I checked in on her every 15 minutes after she went to bed and she’d be awake, but she told me she lies awake for a long time before actually being able to sleep. So I asked her to close her eyes and travel in her mind to a beach. She can hear her parents laughing in the background, her sister playing in the sand, she herself is lying down on the beach. The sound of the ocean is blurring all other conversation, the wind is singing through the air, birds can be heard faintly… I saw her pupils picturing everything through her closed eyelids when I first started the exercises, but the movement eventually slowed down to a stop and she was fast asleep. That’s probably the best off the cuff success story I have. Anyway, I hope to hear from you! Thank you for your consideration!
