Rocio $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello there ! My name is Rocio and I thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate you possibly allowing me into your home and lives. A little background about me, I have a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology with a minor in Early Childhood Education and worked for the Department of Education as a paraprofessional and substitute teacher for 10+ years. I am currently a full time student, studying Radiologic Technology, which reflects my passion for helping others. I have gained experience working with children and families of diverse age groups such as newborns, infants, toddlers and teens in different settings. Their needs are completely different as well allowing me to be flexible with all age groups and their individualities. I also have personal experience in caring for children as I have 3 siblings myself. Growing up caring for my siblings was a daily routine that I honestly grew to love and enjoy. I am naturally drawn to and am comfortable with children for I am open to listening to what they have in mind and making those things come to life, if possible. I am very interactive and hands on; I enjoy playing games such as board games or having dance parties, reading and acting things out and hide and seek, etc. I also like to explore children's creative side with face painting and arts & crafts which I find children love and enjoy. Whatever honestly makes them happy and keeps them safe. I’m bilingual in both English and Spanish, which helps me connect with diverse families. I also have my own pet, so I’m very comfortable with animals and happy to help with any pet care. Whether it’s playtime, homework help, or keeping routines on track, I’m here to make your life easier and give you peace of mind. I would appreciate the opportunity to get to know you and your family. If you have any questions please reach out to me through a quick message as I answer fairly as quickly as I can. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Jack $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jack. I moved to NYC about 7 years from Columbus, Ohio to major in Musical Theatre at Marymount Manhattan on the Upper East Side. I've been taking care and teaching kids since I was in high school. My friends and family would describe me as super positive, patience and great at problem solving. I've taught dance and soccer to all age ranges of kids in Ohio and NYC. I create a warm and supportive environment for all children that I interact with throughout my various jobs. "Jack - our coach, is a patient angel. Give that man a BIG raise! The way he handles the 5-8 year old crew (full of boys!) is a testament to how much he loves the sport. We appreciate Jack's efforts and style and hope he continues to inspire the kids in our community" This is a review from February 2026 at my soccer job with Soccershots NYC. I hope to inspire more kids in the community all around NYC. Hope to chat soon! Thank you
