Lucy $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Lucy! I recently graduated from Colorado State University, where I earned my bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies. I have several years of childcare experience, including nannying for two years throughout college, babysitting throughout high school, and working as a summer camp counselor and lifeguard. I’ve cared for children of a variety of ages, including babies and young children, and I’m also Red Cross CPR certified. I’ve always genuinely loved working with kids. Growing up, I was lucky to have nannies who became such special people in my life, and that has really shaped the kind of caregiver I try to be. I want kids to feel safe and comfortable with me while also creating a fun, loving, friendship-like relationship with them. I’m dependable, patient, nurturing, and very comfortable becoming part of a family’s everyday routine. I’m happy to help with everything from playtime, walks and activities to meals, naps, bedtime routines, school pickups, and light household tasks related to the kids. I also love animals, so I’m more than comfortable in homes with pets! My goal is always to be someone both the children and parents genuinely trust and feel comfortable having around.

"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)."
