About Rutbah

Experience: 6 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi, I'm Zara! (That's my middle name!) I'm from Columbus, OH, and currently attending Columbia University, which brought me to New York City. I've been caring for children for over six years, starting as a volunteer at Columbus' COSI Science Museum in the "little kid space" department. There, I gained foundational skills in child development by engaging young kids in hands-on science and art projects. Lately, I've been working as a babysitter and nanny for families with children aged 2-14, and I'm happy to expand that range! I consider myself very hands-on, meaning I love to play, teach, and be involved in activities with the kids as much as possible. My goal is to provide relief for you and your family and ensure you feel comfortable leaving your children in my care. Meaning I'm happy to help with household tasks like cleaning, cooking, laundry, and anything else as needed. Please feel free to reach out with any questions-I look forward to working with you!
