Hi! I’m Diana — a friendly, experienced babysitter with a genuine love for working with kids of all ages. I’ve been caring for children for over 20 years as a nanny, teacher, and private educator, both in the U.S. and internationally. I’ve worked with high-profile families and bring a warm, calm, and creative energy into every home. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’ve supported children from infancy through the teen years—including those with food allergies and special medical needs. Safety, fun, and learning are always my top priorities! I hold a Master’s degree in Museum Studies (with a focus on education through objects and hands-on learning) from the University of Glasgow, as well as a Bachelor’s degree in Theater from UC Riverside. I’ve also taught in schools and led camps, so I love bringing learning into playtime—whether it’s through reading, crafts, imaginative games, or outdoor adventures. I’m based in Queen Creek, I drive, I’m passport-ready, and I speak conversational Spanish. Whether you need a one-time evening sitter or a regular, reliable presence, I’m happy to help. I look forward to meeting your family and creating a safe, happy, and engaging environment for your little ones!

Diana was fantastic watching my 1-year-old son while I worked in Long Beach. She immediately made him (and me) feel comfortable, asked thoughtful questions about his preferences, and clearly knows babies extremely well. She was excellent at keeping him happy, active, and fed—even managing to get him down for a nap outside his regular environment. I highly recommend Diana and will definitely book her again!

Angelina 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

I am a kind, patient, and dependable caregiver who truly enjoys working with children and being a positive part of their daily lives. I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. I am CPR, AED, and First Aid certified, and I am comfortable with school drop-offs and pick-ups, meal prep, running errands, and taking children to parks and activities. I take pride in being attentive, trustworthy, and caring, and I always treat children with patience, respect, and genuine kindness. I am also amazing with pets, and being able to run errands and feed as well for them!

I highly recommend Angelina for any nanny or babysitting position. I’ve hired her multiple times to babysit, and she has always been reliable, responsible, and great with kids. She’s patient, attentive, and makes sure children stay safe while also keeping them entertained and comfortable. She communicates well, follows instructions, and handles situations calmly. Any family would be lucky to have her.

"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

"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)."
