Hi! I’m a nanny with strong experience caring for children of all ages, with a particular specialty in infants and early development. I’ve supported babies from as young as 7 weeks through their first year, building structured routines around feeding, sleep, and developmental milestones. I bring a calm, intuitive, and highly attentive presence into the home. My approach blends nurturing care with gentle structure, helping children feel secure while supporting their growth and independence. I’m confident managing busy households, anticipating needs, and maintaining a seamless, organized environment for both children and parents. I value clear communication, discretion, and reliability, and I take pride in being someone families can fully trust. I’m also very comfortable in pet-friendly homes and enjoy being part of a well-run household. I’m looking to align with a thoughtful family who values consistency, quality care, and a warm, professional presence.

"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)."
