Ruoxi $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Ruoxi, a bilingual English and Chinese speaker with a strong passion for children, education, and lifelong learning. I’m currently an entrepreneur and run my own property management business. Before moving to the United States, I founded and managed an English language training school in China, where I served as the school principal. That experience gave me the opportunity to work closely with children, teachers, and families, and it sparked a lasting interest in how children learn, grow, and develop confidence. I’m especially interested in different approaches to education and child development. I enjoy learning about educational philosophies and finding ways to adapt activities to each child’s personality, interests, and learning style. I believe children learn best when they are curious and engaged, so I love the idea of “learning through play and playing through learning.” Rather than simply giving children answers, I enjoy asking questions, encouraging curiosity, and helping them develop the ability to think independently and solve problems on their own. Depending on the child’s age and interests, I enjoy reading together, doing arts and crafts, playing educational games, exploring nature, practicing English or Chinese, and creating activities that make learning feel natural and fun. I have also helped care for my neighbors’ children and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. I am patient, responsible, organized, and attentive. As someone who has managed both a school and my own businesses, I understand the importance of responsibility, communication, and trust. I am fluent in both English and Chinese and would be happy to incorporate either language into everyday activities if a family is interested in giving their child more exposure to Chinese or supporting a bilingual environment. Above everything else, I believe a child’s safety and well-being always come first. My goal is to provide a safe, positive, and encouraging environment where children feel comfortable being themselves, asking questions, exploring their interests, and becoming more confident and independent.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
