I have experience caring for children of all ages—from babies to teenagers. I’m a calm, patient, and reliable person who enjoys spending time with kids, supporting their routines, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. Over the years, I’ve helped with a variety of tasks like meal prep, playtime, homework, bedtime routines, and keeping things organized. I try to adapt to each child’s needs, whether they need more attention, encouragement, or just someone to have fun with. I also have basic knowledge of first aid and try to stay alert and responsible at all times. I know how important communication with parents is, and I always do my best to follow their instructions and keep them informed. Taking care of kids is something I truly enjoy, and I always aim to create a positive and respectful environment where they can feel comfortable and happy.

Rocio E.
- 15 years paid experience

Caring for children has always come naturally to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. I love being a sitter because I know how much trust it takes to leave your little ones in someone else’s care. I do everything I can to help both children and parents feel safe, supported, and respected. Whether it’s playtime, nap time, or a challenging moment, I aim to bring calm, connection, and patience to every interaction. I was a nanny for over 5 years before transitioning into the healthcare field, where I most recently worked as a health care educator. Through both paths, one thing has always remained true: I love taking care of people. I am currently a full-time student enrolled in online courses and I’ve returned to part-time childcare. I’ve built strong relationships with families and continued with occasionally babysitting over the years. Date nights for parents are still important! I’m CPR certified and experienced with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. My background in healthcare and education gives me a unique edge when it comes to attentiveness, safety, and developmental awareness. I bring a warm, grounded energy into the home, and I’m often told I’m the kind of sitter kids feel instantly comfortable around. If you’re looking for someone dependable, emotionally attuned, and genuinely passionate about caregiving, I’d love to connect with your family!
