I am currently a teacher at a local preschool and have been teaching since 2022. I graduated from Penn State August 2023, with a bachelor’s in Psychology and Early Childhood Education credits. I am working on completing my ECE schooling. I love working with children because there’s nothing better than being able to teach and guide them into a healthy and positive development. I also enjoy teaching them new things about the world that strikes their creativity and imagination. I have all of my clearances such as mandated reporter, NSOR, child abuse, etc.

I’ve been babysitting for around 10 years, and working with kids is something I’ve always genuinely enjoyed. I’m reliable, safety-trained, and confident handling all ages—from infants to older kids. I’m the type of sitter who likes to keep things fun and active with games, crafts, or outdoor play, but I also respect family routines and schedules. I believe in creating a positive, inclusive environment where children feel safe, supported, and respected. Families I’ve worked with appreciate that I’m self-sufficient and can keep things running smoothly without needing a lot of direction. I’m also comfortable helping with tidying, laundry, and light cleaning. I know how busy life can get, and I take pride in making parents’ days a little easier so they can focus on time with their kids instead of housework. Babysitting has always been more than a side job to me—it’s something I care about deeply. I love seeing kids grow, learn new things, and gain confidence. My goal is to bring both reliability and warmth to every family I work with.

I have babysat since I was a teenager, and then once I began college, I would watch the children of my parents' friends as well as the children of my professors. This ultimately led to me serving as a nanny for my professors in Colombia while they led a study abroad. I am bilingual; I have a Master's degree in Spanish literature from Penn State. And I am freshly CPR/First Aid certified.

Hi families! My name is Ruthza (Rue), and I’m a 4th-year Psychology major at Penn State. I’ve always loved working with kids, and I bring both experience and enthusiasm to every babysitting job. I first started caring for little ones by volunteering for three years in my church’s nursery with children ages 1–5. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to work with two wonderful families back home over the past two summers, as well as helping out family and friends whenever needed. I’ve consistently been the “go-to” babysitter and have received great feedback for being dependable, caring, and attentive. In addition to keeping kids engaged and safe, I can also help with homework, light housekeeping, meal prep, and organizing daily routines. Whether it’s planning fun activities, helping with schoolwork, or just being a reliable extra set of hands, I enjoy supporting families and making things easier at home. Babysitting is more than just a job for me—it’s something I truly love. Every child has their own personality, curiosity, and way of seeing the world, and I enjoy being part of their growth and development. I find joy in creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where kids can learn, play, and thrive. Feel free to contact me with any questions. I look forward to meeting your family and being someone you can count on!
