Ruka is the woman behind Tiny Treasures NYC and she knows just how important having a connection is when pairing a nanny with a family. Finding the perfect fit not only gives parents peace of mind, but provides a stable and enriched environment for children in the childminder’s care. 

​

A nanny herself for over 14 years, now that Ruka is ‘Mom’ to a beautiful little girl, she has an even deeper understanding of how to match childcare providers with the right family. With insight on both sides, she has been successfully connecting families with nannies and babysitters for a very long time.

​

When she is not playing matchmaker to parents and nannies in NYC, Ruka is studying neuroscience at NYU's Center for Neuroscience and Hunter College Psychology Department. Her current area of study is adolescent and anxiety-related behaviors due to stress in females.
