My name is Ruta, and I am a passionate early-years educator who has embraced the rewarding role of a private nanny. With over 15 years of experience serving families in Canada and the Middle East, and more than 12 years in early childhood education, I am dedicated to nurturing young minds. My warm approach and extensive international experience empower me to support first-time parents during the transformative transition from hospital to home. As a Newborn Care Specialist in Canada, I have guided families through the beautiful yet challenging journey of welcoming a new child. I provide comprehensive support for parents’ emotional and physical recovery, ensuring they feel confident and informed. By closely monitoring infant developmental milestones and maintaining an infant log, I offer personalized guidance that addresses each family's unique needs. My hands-on experience includes bathing, diapering, and managing nursery duties. I strive to create a nurturing environment for newborns while handling essential tasks such as cleaning bottles, preparing formulas, and organizing the nursery. I understand the importance of establishing a soothing atmosphere during this critical time, ensuring that both the infant and the parents feel supported. With a strong background in caring for children of various ages, I have honed my skills in infant care, including providing postpartum support for multiple babies. I engage infants through play, help establish healthy sleep routines, and introduce solid foods, all while allowing parents the time to rest and recover. I am passionate about fostering a loving environment for infants during their formative months. My expertise in infant nutrition, emotional attunement, and developmental milestones aligns perfectly with the qualities desired in a Newborn Care Specialist.

I am currently seeking newborn roles exclusively. As a dedicated Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist, I offer my services for both live-in and temporary positions. I am committed to providing exceptional care for families during the critical early months, whether for three, six, nine, or twelve months. I can assist with setting up your nursery, delivering personalized care based on your unique needs, and performing all nursery duties. With many years of experience as an educator and international private nanny, I bring a wealth of knowledge to my work. I will be available starting May 2025 and am willing to travel anywhere in Canada or internationally to support families on their journey. Based in Ottawa, please note that non-local jobs would need to be live-in arrangements.
