I am a grade 9 student, a Red Cross Certified Babysitter and a former Kindie-helper. I have limited spots available this fall for new families, and I am looking forward to meeting yours!
If you are looking for a sitter, send an email to babysittingwithrubyh@gmail.com.
My parents will be in touch!
Why you should work with me?
- I am a Red Cross Certified Babysitter. This course covers everything from managing difficult behaviours to essential content on leadership and professional conduct as a babysitter. The recently updated curriculum, complete with new science, also provides improved learning when it comes to giving the appropriate care in the event of an emergency.
- I have a demonstrated love of children. I was a regular “Kindie Helper” at my school where I provided support to children on the Autism Spectrum. I understand the extra patience and understanding that neurodiverse kids require.
- My parents are here to support me as I learn and can step in at a moment’s notice if extra support is needed.
- I am comfortable with pets, including dogs and cats!
Services
Babysitting
I have experience babysitting young children (not young babies). Send my parents and I an email and we will book a call to discuss your needs.
Having a party?
I can help! Need an extra set of hands to wrangle kids or help with games? Having a grown up gathering but your friends have to bring a little one? Give me a call!
Pet Sitting & Dog Walking
I have an English Bull Terrier and he is a handful! The good news is I am comfortable with most dogs and I can help you care for yours. If they like to walk I can take them out or drop by for potty breaks. I can help you with other furry or feathered friends, from cats, to hamsters, birds or fish!
Testimonials
“I wanted to let you know how impressed I was with Ruby’s patient, kind, and thoughtful assistance to a child in our class. What I noticed was Ruby’s exceptional ability to work with kids. She engages with the person she wants to help in ways that can’t be taught, and I feel she naturally has a desire to help and teach others. I’ve noticed her caring attitude during our kindergarten reading buddy time as well. I told her this morning that I am sure her gifts will serve her well in the near future taking care of kids in your neighbourhood. She’ll be a highly coveted babysitter for all the parents in your neighbourhood.” – Ruby’s Teacher to her parents via email (April 31, 2024)
