Hi! My name is Alexandra, and I’m currently an engineering student at Arizona State University. I’m responsible, patient, and dependable, with a strong ability to connect with kids of all ages. I have a natural way with children and genuinely enjoy helping them feel safe, supported, and engaged. I’m great at keeping kids entertained through creative play, homework help, reading, and structured routines, while also maintaining a calm and caring environment. My background in engineering has strengthened my problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and reliability—qualities I bring into every family I work with. Parents describe me as trustworthy, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I understand the importance of following instructions, respecting household rules, and keeping parents informed. Whether you need help for a date night, busy workdays, or regular care, I take pride in being someone families can truly rely on. I look forward to supporting your family and providing dependable, loving care for your children!

Hello families! My name is Alejandra, and I’m a caring, responsible, and experienced nanny originally from Colombia. With over five years of experience, I specialize in infant and toddler care and have worked with wonderful families in both full-time and babysitting roles. A little about my experience: * I have extensive experience caring for babies and toddlers, including providing full-time care for multiple children at once. * My most recent full-time role involved caring for two little ones from infancy through their toddler years. * I also offer occasional babysitting and enjoy supporting families whenever they need an extra hand. Why book me? I love creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments for children. Whether it’s arts and crafts, reading, singing, dancing, or outdoor play, I focus on activities that support learning and development while making sure kids have fun! A few things to know about me: * Bilingual (Spanish is my native language—I’d love to introduce your child to a new language!) * CPR & First Aid Certified * Swimming Certified (great for water safety!) * Fully Vaccinated Against COVID-19 * Clean Background Check & References Available I understand how important it is to find a trustworthy and loving caregiver, and I’d be happy to provide references from families I’ve worked with. Feel free to reach out—I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!

I highly recommend Alejandra as a nanny and childcare provider. As a father of five daughters, I have seen her work closely with my four younger children, currently ages 11 months, 4, 9, and 10. What has impressed me most is her ability to provide attentive, dependable care while adapting skillfully to children at very different ages and stages of development. With my infant, Alejandra’s focus and attention to detail are remarkable. Her patience and professionalism are an unshakable constant. She provides a great balance of structured care and personal attention, while remaining observant and flexible enough to adjust to the baby’s needs and routine. With my 4-year-old, she is exceptionally attentive to her developmental stage. She encourages her curiosity and independence, listens to her questions, lets her help when appropriate, and recognizes when she needs assistance or closer supervision. Alejandra confidently manages activities and outings as well as everyday routines involving meals, screen time, hygiene, and cleaning up after eating or playing. She has also developed an excellent rapport with my 9- and 10-year-olds. She takes time to learn their individual personalities, interests, likes and dislikes, and gives them room to take initiative within clear expectations. With schoolwork, she allows them to explain their teacher’s instructions and work independently while remaining available to help. She is particularly skilled at calmly bringing their attention back when distracted. Rather than simply telling them what to do, she reminds them of expectations and positive behaviors they already understand from school and encourages them to apply those same standards at home. One of Alejandra’s greatest strengths is her judgment—she seems to know when to engage, when to redirect, and when to let children navigate an activity independently. That balance reflects a level of judgment and awareness that I believe distinguishes an exceptional childcare provider. Most importantly, my children genuinely enjoy and are comfortable with her. Their mother and I value the caring demeanor, patience, consistency, structure, and professionalism she brings into our home. I trust Alejandra with my children and would confidently recommend her to another family. Any family fortunate enough to have her care for their children will be gaining a thoughtful, capable, and genuinely dedicated caregiver.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
