About Rocio

Experience: 15 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I've been caring for children for over 15 years, and my passion for fostering their growth and development has only grown stronger over time. I believe in creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can explore, learn, and thrive. As a caregiver, I am patient, calm, and always ready to engage with children in creative and imaginative ways. I believe that play is essential for children's development, so I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with them. I am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time, and I have experience with all age groups from infants to preteens. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish. I am committed to providing reliable child care that supports families. I follow the parents' lead in enforcing household rules and communicate regularly about their child's day and any issues that arise. I can also help with cooking, light housekeeping, and supervising swimming.

Rocio was employed as a full-time nanny with our family for seven years. She began working with us when our first son was 2 months old. Rocio was an integral part of raising both of our children. She developed daily routines, prepared meals, potty trained, and most importantly, played! Rocio would engage in play of all kinds with our children as opposed to simply supervising, which made such a huge difference in their upbringing and creativity. Rocio is very comfortable working with children of all ages. From caring for a newborn, to managing online learning for elementary school, Rocio rises to every challenge with a calm can- do attitude. She would research craft ideas and learning activities, engage the kids in outdoor adventures, and take regular trips to the library to encourage reading. I truly cannot say enough about Rocio, her work ethic, and her genuine love of children.
