A little bit about me

I'm a former preschool teacher and have worked in nonprofit operations here in New York for the past few years, and I'm looking for a meaningful nanny position while I transition career roles.

I taught Pre-K for two years at St. George's Episcopal School in Austin, where I created lesson plans and maintained a safe, engaging environment for 32 three- and four-year-olds.

I've also worked as a nanny for ages spanning from infants to eighth graders, served as 5th grade camp counselor and art teacher in New Orleans, and I taught art and continuing education classes to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities for two years at The Arc of the Capital Area in Austin. I feel confident and excited in working with kids of all ages and personalities.

I've been in New York for 4 years and currently live in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

Rochelli C. - Seeking Work in Greenpoint

Babysitter Available in Greenpoint, NY: Rochelli C.

Hi! I’m Rochelli. 😊 I’m an incoming college student, and this fall I’ll be studying nursing with the goal of becoming a pediatric nurse one day.

I’ve spent most of my high school years caring for family friends’ children, and I also regularly help care for my sister’s two little ones (ages 2 years and 7 months), whether that’s after school, on weekends, or whenever she needs to work. Those experiences have taught me how important patience, responsibility, and creating a safe, loving environment are.

I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED through the American Red Cross, and I’m happy to help with school pick-ups, playtime, homework, light meal preparation, and keeping children engaged while parents are away.

I know how much trust it takes to leave your child with someone, and I would love the opportunity to be someone your family can count on. I look forward to getting to know you and your little ones!
