Hello, I'm Rocio! I have 15 years of professional experience as a caretaker for children from infancy to 15. I've nurtured little ones in my role as a sitter, full time nanny, daycare worker, teacher, family advocate in a domestic violence shelter and therapeutic activities programmer. I have training in CPR and TBRI. Some of my favorite activities with kiddos are: reading outdoors exploring (with age appropriate learning!) crafts building/creating dance/yoga/silly exercise time reading "cooking" together getting messy! I pride myself on my ability to: communicate create routines keep children engaged teach soothe nurture bond with other people's pets If you have any questions - send me a message! ** IN AUSTIN AREA AUGUST & SEPTEMBER 2026 **
“Rocio was amazing! Very professional and great with communicating. My kids loved her and I would recommend using her!”
Hi I’m Ezra! Taking care of little ones (whether they have 2 feet or 4 paws) has been a joy of mine since I was a teenager. I always volunteered to watch my teachers kids after school/during the summer and I eventually was asked to do more and get paid for it as well! This included pet and house sitting for extended periods of time/during long vacations. My love for caring comes from I my experience with my 4 nieces and nephews (2 of each) and they range in age from kindergartener to college sophomore. I helped my sister raise/co-parent my youngest niece and nephew while she was going through a tough time and it really opened my eyes and my heart to wanting to continue caring for others in any way possible! I’m an Early Childhood Educator and after school art teacher so I have all my proper licensing through both the state of Texas and Austin ISD and have passed several rounds of background checks; first aid training; and adult, child, and infant BLS + CPR certifications. During the school day my focus is on preparing kiddos (ages 6 weeks-5 years) for elementary school through a play-based curriculum with a focus on social-emotional learning and self-regulation. At my after school job we focus on helping kids be Creative Artists, Critical Thinkers, Confident Leaders and Courageous Allies in the 21st century through various arts curricula so I have a ton of arts and crafts activities in the back of my pocket suitable for ages 1-101! I love being able to bring creativity to children and helping them explore what they are most drawn to while also empowering them to be the leaders of our future. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have and I’d be more than happy to answer them ASAP!
“Ezra went above and beyond to help us out on a last minute same day request! My 6 year old had a wonderful time and Ezra was a terrific companion for my son’s high energy companionship requests! :) Ezra is a truly kind and gentle soul. Thank you!”
Nurturing young minds is my passion. For 20 years, I've dedicated myself to providing enriching childcare experiences. My graduate degree, combined with Early Child Development coursework, has equipped me with the knowledge to support each child's unique growth. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational apps. I'm happy to help with cooking, carpooling, and swimming supervision. I am comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, including verbal updates and texts. Knowing I can positively impact your child's life and provide reliable support for your family is why I love what I do. I can comfortably care for three children and would love to bring my patient, creative, and friendly approach to your family. ***** I take Zelle for payment*****
Hello! My names Alexis and I’m a recent graduate from Concordia university in Austin. I was on the tennis team and love to stay active, through sports, games and exercise. I hope to share my love for outdoors and sports, but if it’s too hot outside, I have great arts and crafts skills, I grew up making masterpieces out of pipe cleaners and pompoms:)I also love to read and learn, and share those passions with the children I sit for. I have had 8+ years of experience in child care ranging from infants to young teens. I am comfortable with all ages! I love to cook so meal prepping or cooking for them is no problem:) I also have plenty of experience with animals, so if you have a furry friend that is perfectly fine!
