Vaccinated & boosted! Experienced, professional, silly, loving! Most recent background check June 2025. Red Cross Infant/Child/IAdult CPR & First Aid Certification 6/2025 Parents have called me "baby whisperer" and "Maya Poppins"; a three-year-old called me "booty butt"! I can handle anything! It is my great pride to share my resourcefulness and experience; I ask for help and clarification gladly.  I've worked with children from ages 2w to 18y through the site and also seniors. From KG teacher and early childhood curriculum developer, teacher trainer and university lecturer, I've worked extensively in education. After most of a decade abroad and a wild pandemic, I just finished my doctorate in education (March 2023!). I love working with children and appreciate having a flexible schedule. With little ones, I'm silly and creative (and love to share my published children's book!). I understand tears and have the patience to soothe and work with the frustration, exhaustion, or confusion behind them. For parents, I'm super tidy, reliable, a great communicator, and have a CA driver's license! I have lived and worked all over the world and have a social justice mindset that informs my life and work. Also available for high-end tutoring, development evaluations (ages 2-6), middle/upper grade social services, and personal assistant services at other rates. 

Maya is a wonderful caregiver! Our daughter had a great time with her. She is kind, playful, easy to be around and talk to. We highly recommend her!

NOTE - at this time I am already committed to a family in the after-school time period. I do often take jobs outside of what you see on my calendar - just inquire! I'm looking for work in the childcare field because really, I like spending time with kids. When I had to think what I most like to do with young people, it is having conversations with them. I find it incredibly enjoyable, enlightening, and often, hysterical to hear what children have to say. Looking after children is something at which I felt I was always very good. It comes easily to me and I am extremely comfortable around children, from infants to teenagers. My life has really come full circle, back to children. Out of college I worked for many families for nearly 15 years as a sitter, while I eased into the graphic design field as a freelancer. After 25 yrs in that field, my role was becoming obsolete, so I naturally and easily slid back into childcare for the past many years. I am proud of the relationships I've developed with the children AND their parents - many have become close friends. I am very much a mature grown-up. Childcare is my primary work and focus. I show up. Extremely rare for me to cancel. I am single, with no children - just the mandatory cats we single women are obligated to have. I have loved living in San Francisco for 35+ years, graduating from USF and the Academy of Art University with a BFA degree. For 35+ years I have lived in the Inner Richmond in the same home. I'm passionate about traveling, baking/eating, movies, crafting. I believe you will find me to be a good listener, particularly to what you, the parents, are telling me about your child and his or her care. I am patient, easy going, but not a pushover. I firmly enforce house rules when needed. I love reading children's books and doing creative projects of all kinds. Trips to the park are high on my to-do list. I'm very Muni adept but love to walk too. I'm probably not nearly as tech-knowledgeable as an average 8 year old, but I do my best and am always mindful to respond to messages and inquiries quickly.... but I am by no means overly attached to my android. My eyes and attention are meant to be ON your child, not a screen. I am certified in CPR and AED for Adults, Children and Infants by the American Safety and Health Institute. I have been certified Best Auntie by my 5 nieces and nephew and I have the mug to prove it. One note - I do have a 2 hour minimum for bookings. Thank you!

Tricia was wonderful! She was very attentive and gentle. Our LO really loved her. She was on time, responsive and I would highly recommend her.

Parents, do you need a break? I’m Deborah, nanny extraordinaire, postpartum doula, family assistant and Newborn Care Specialist. I’m also a Trustline registered, Covid vaccinated and CPR certified well experienced child care provider with a background in early childhood education providing care for children ranging in age from newborns to school age. This includes twins as well as nanny share experience and I have built long standing relationships with many of my families. As a certified Newborn Care Specialist I’m especially looking to help mothers with their newborns preferably on overnight shifts. This is my link for newborn care.[removed] In addition to being mature, attentive, dependable, active and organized, I’m also able to implement healthy nap and feeding routines for infants and toddlers and have a high standard for hygiene. You can rest assured knowing your children are safe under my care as I’m CPR and First Aid certified and have the necessary life-saving skills to care for your child. In addition, I am a non smoker, willing to do light housework, mommy chores and am reliably punctual. Also, should you need me to transport your children, I have my own car, car seats and an immaculate driving record. I choose to be a childcare provider because I have a genuine love of children. I I love spending time with them being silly and watching them thrive and grow under my care. I also love their sense of humor, their curiosity and most of all their honesty. Finally, if you’re looking for a trusted, kind, experienced child care provider or family assistant with a “can do” attitude look no further. And did I say I love to cook? Please read my reviews and reach out anytime. Thank you and I look forward to getting to know you and your family.

Deborah was wonderful and did a great job with our 2mo/3yo duo while we attended two days of wedding events without any worry. Great communication and care, thank you so much!

"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)."
