Hello! I’m a dedicated and experienced caregiver with a lifelong passion for working with children. I spent 15 years as an elementary school librarian and, before that, 10 years as a director at the Boys and Girls Club. I’m also CPR certified and have 4 years of nanny experience. As a mother of three and grandmother to both young and older grandchildren, I understand the importance of providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I love engaging kids in activities that encourage learning, creativity, and play. My goal is to ensure that each child feels valued, happy, and well cared for while in my care. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family!

Hello, all! I am a mother of 4 grown men and have currently enrolled myself back into school while working real estate. I have spent most of my adult like working with or taking care of children and I love it. I am responsible, dependable, and would love to help with your child care needs. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile. 🙂

“Angela was fantastic with my son. He is an active three year old and he loved spending time with her. He can get loud and wild at times. While she was here he was quiet and entertained. I would highly recommend Angela.”

Hi! My name is Shay, and I’m a reliable and caring sitter based in Arizona. I offer childcare, pet care, and household help for families who want someone they can truly depend on. I’ve been caring for kids of all ages — from infants to teens — and love creating fun, calm, and engaging environments. Whether it’s helping with homework, crafts, walks, or bedtime routines, I make sure each child feels safe, heard, and cared for. I’m also a proud dog mom and comfortable with most pets. Before childcare, I served in the military, which taught me patience, structure, and responsibility — qualities I bring to every home I work in. Families describe me as warm, dependable, and easy to communicate with. I’m excited to meet great families and provide care that brings you peace of mind!

About Me** As the oldest of six children, caregiving has always been a part of my life. From a young age, I found myself naturally stepping into the role of caretaker. My dedication to this profession is backed by a Certified Caregiving Certificate from the state, along with CPR and First Aid training. I also hold a Food Handler's Card, a Fingerprint Card, and a valid driver's license, ensuring that I am fully equipped to handle various caregiving situations. My mom always brags about how kids love me, and I believe this is because caregiving comes naturally to me. Despite the extensive training I've received, my ability to connect with and care for others feels instinctual. Whether it's through my professional experience or my personal background, I am committed to providing the highest quality care. I pride myself on my faith in God, humility and character and take on leadership roles in church and youth

Booked by 1 family in Tempe, AZ

I have a strong background caring for children, pets, and households. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology with coursework in childhood development, which helps me understand and respond to each child’s unique needs. Professionally, I’ve worked as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), providing one-on-one therapy to children with autism, where I helped them develop communication, social, and life skills in a supportive and fun environment. Along with my professional experience, I’ve grown up babysitting children of all ages and have also cared for pets for friends and neighbors. I’m CPR certified and highly attentive to safety and wellbeing, and with eight years of customer service experience, I’m confident handling household duties such as cleaning, organizing, errands, and maintaining a smooth, welcoming environment. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy helping children feel happy, engaged, and supported while keeping the home clean and running efficiently.

"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."

"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)."
