I am an ASU graduate. I obtained my B.S. in Criminal Justice and criminology. I am the youngest of four. I currently have 8 nieces and nephews. The oldest is 16 years old and the youngest is 5 months. My experience has been acquired throughout babysitting all of my nieces and nephews. I am very friendly and enjoy spending time and playing with kids. I do understand they require a lot of undivided attention so I am not easily distracted.

Booked by 2 families in Phoenix, AZ

Hello my name is Valeria. I speak Italian, Spanish and English, and I have over 10 years of experience working as a nanny/ night nanny I’m currently employed by a family where I care for two boys, ages 2 and 4 but my contract will end soon and I have already found another family but I would love to add an extra one if possible.

“Valeria is great! She’s patient, caring, but still clearly in charge. I know my children are safe with her and my 3 young kids LOVE her. I trust her to keep them safe and happy. My 5 yr old is a stubborn little dude and she has such a way of getting him to behave all the while having a great time. I’m not sure hope she does it. I’m chalking it up to a magic touch :)”

I’m a freshman in college majoring an elementary education, originally from a small town in Arizona. As the youngest is six siblings (3/2 siblings), I’ve always been a go to babysitter for my many nieces and nephews. During Covid, I took full-time care of my youngest nephew, helping him get ready for virtual school, preparing meals for him, assisting with his homework, and keeping him entertained, all while managing my own online classes. For the first several weeks, I even helped Care for my great nephew as a newborn, helping take overnight shifts to help out. These experiences have made me patient nurturing and highly dependable. I’m kind compassionate, playful and understanding and I generally love connecting with children. I get along with almost anyone and I love being around pets. Of course I have many of my own with two dogs two chickens, and two ducks. My passion for caregiving comes naturally, and I’m excited to continue helping families while I pursue my degree in elementary education.

My backpack is packed like I’m heading into a tiny human wilderness: stickers, Band-Aids, emergency fruit snacks, a mini first-aid kit, and three read-aloud books I swap based on who’s having a big-feelings day. I keep mental files on birthdays, food allergies, and which stuffed animal is non-negotiable at bedtime. I can negotiate tooth-brushing like a UN diplomat and I’ll absolutely call broccoli “dinosaur trees” if it gets one more bite in. Craft time is my happy place, but I’m just as good at couch-cushion forts, backyard bug safaris, and turning spelling words into treasure hunts. I text parents photo updates, stick to the routine, and I always leave the kitchen cleaner than I found it. Babysitting isn’t just my job. It’s where my patience, creativity, and ability to handle chaos all make sense.

"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)."
