Ruby
Private Tutor in Colchester (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
My name is Ruby, a 20 year old primary school tutor (for ages 6-11) and babysitter with two years of experience. I understand that parents may not always have the time to support their child’s learning as much as they would like, so I aim to provide both children and parents with reassurance and support. I take a calm, patient, and professional approach to tutoring, creating a positive environment where children feel confident and motivated to grow academically.
I’m very flexible with my schedule and happy to adapt to your family’s needs. Please don't hesitate to reach out. :)
My Experience
I’ve had experience looking after kids of different ages and personalities. I’m great with shy children who need a little extra patience and with high-energy kids who love to play and explore. Whether it’s helping with homework, or school learning curriculum, or managing routines, I’m reliable and always focused on making sure children feel safe and happy.
My Qualifications
I’m currently gaining hands-on experience working with children and am eager to continue learning. While I don’t have formal childcare certifications yet, I’m reliable, responsible, and committed to providing a safe and fun environment. I’m also open to completing any necessary training or courses to better support your family.
My Availability
I’m happy to discuss specific days and times to fit your family’s needs.

Ruby has looked after out 3 kids (aged 2,3 and 7) for just over a year now and she has been absolutely wonderful. She keeps the kids highly entertained and looks after them with upmost care. The well-being of children is Ruby’s objective and she clearly has the ability to uphold this.
My kids have had other nanny’s in the past however they have never been happier than with Ruby.
P.s - her dinners are fantastic!!!
