Cami $26 per hour for 1 child

I grew up 1 of 4 with my sister being diagnosed with autism exposing me very early on with the needs of nuerdiverse people and the comlassion and empathy needed to support them! I worked with kiddos of all ages for over 10 years starting with teaching swim lessons starting at age 16 and casual babysitting for friends and family to now working with kiddos with nuerodifferences and providing ABA therapy. I believe children are our future and they should feel supported, understood and safe! I love seeing the kiddos I work with grow and learn and become amazing little humans! I love going on hikes and walks with my dog, you will likely find me at the dog beach or in the garden during my free time. I love to create and am currently working with ceramics for my small business!

I am a dedicated and highly resilient individual with significant experience managing complex family responsibilities. As a mother of two and a long-term primary caregiver to my own mother since childhood, I have cultivated exceptional skills in time management, resource allocation, empathy, and crisis resolution. Following my mother's passing, I am now eager to apply these honed organizational and management skills toward supporting the goals of a professional organization. My background demonstrates a powerful capacity for commitment, multitasking, and problem-solving under pressure, making me a highly organized and compassionate addition to any team.5️⃣6️⃣2️⃣▫️2️⃣4️⃣6️⃣▫️7️⃣5️⃣5️⃣2️⃣

"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)."
