About Ruth

I first began by traveling to Mexico to care for my grandmother. Little by little the doctors stared amputating each leg. To see my grandmother so Ill broke my heart . And It just grew in me to start caring for her. Helping her with her everyday needs gave me such satisfaction. So every year I took time off any schedule and traveled for a month or two to be with her. And after high school I completed a CNA program and started working with elderly patients and was very exciting for me. I also have experience working with children. Children and the elderly give me so much joy. For the past two and a half years I've dedicated my life to my two girls ages 2 and 6 months I've breastfed them and it's something that has taken up a lot of my time and it's something that I have very proud of. I am 32 years old. And I wanted to start working so I can give my girls all that they deserve.
