With over a decade of dedicated experience in childcare, I bring warmth, reliability, and a deep understanding of children’s needs to each family I work with.

My background also includes roles as an au pair, tutor, teacher, and camp counselor, giving me a well-rounded foundation for connecting with kids of all ages. Please feel free to book any open time on my calendar, as I keep it updated regularly. For any questions, don’t hesitate to send me a message. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Booked by 55 families in Albany, CA

Hi! My name is Andrea and I am a 20 year old living in Oakland (Rockridge). Fun fact- I am 5th generation! I have been so lucky to have worked with children since I was 12 and for all of my previous jobs. I am comfortable caring for all ages! I have worked for •East bay Regional Park District• and •City of Oakland• as a recreation leader for after school programs and summer camps! I have worked for multiple families over the years and look to build more relationships with you and your children. To me it is very important to get a child out in nature and explore and experience everything in the outside world so I love to go on walks and out the house if that is possible with your child. I absolutely love all animals and am more than willing to care for them! I can help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, and any other. My goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and grow. I look forward to meeting you and your family! I am more than happy to do overnights and travel. CPR certified! I do not smoke! Do not drive! Please be sure of your hours before booking-you still pay for hours listed even if home early. If you want to extend hours, I am okay with that as long as there is clear communication! Thanks :)

"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)."
