How It Works

Apply to Join

Because Soikie is a private community, all families must apply for access. This helps us maintain a trusted, values-aligned space for everyone involved.

• You'll answer a few quick questions about your needs and connection to the community.
• Our team will review your application and notify you if approved.
• Approval ensures that everyone using Soikie shares our standards of care and respect.

Activate Your Membership

Once approved, you can activate your monthly membership ($18/month or $180/year). This gives you full access to browse and connect with providers. There are no additional fees, your subscription is your key to the community.

Browse Trusted Providers

Every provider on Soikie is either a current Jewish day school teacher or personally referred by one and their referrer is listed on their public profile.

• This means you're always seeing providers with a real-world reputation, not strangers with star ratings.
• You can browse by:
• • Location
• • Services offered (e.g., tutoring, babysitting, coaching)
• • Availability and more

Reach Out Directly

Once you find a Soikie that fits your family's needs, you can:

• Message them directly through the platform
• Ask questions, discuss logistics, and get to know them
• Coordinate services on your own terms
• You're never matched by an algorithm — you choose who feels right.

Set Your Own Arrangements

You and your Soikie decide:

• Hourly rate or flat fee
• Schedule and location
• Any other expectations
• All payments for services happen outside the platform. Soikie takes no cut.

Build Long-Term Relationships

Soikie isn't just for one-off help. It's designed to help families build ongoing, trusted relationships with providers who feel like an extension of your home.

• Whether it's weekly tutoring, summer babysitting, or after-school support, you'll find someone who fits your rhythm and values.
