Booked by 30 families in Emeryville, CA

Hi! My name is Mikaela, and I’m a 30-year-old college graduate with a degree in Sociology and a minor in Child Development. I have over 15 years of experience working with children, from helping raise my siblings to serving as a summer camp supervisor for five years. While attending college in Texas, I worked in daycares and volunteered in a hospital maternity ward, which deepened my passion for supporting children and families. Since graduating, I’ve worked as a certified behavioral specialist supporting children on the autism spectrum, and I recently spent two years as a Special Education teacher before moving back to the Bay Area. Currently, I work as a behavioral specialist at a local school and babysit in my free time. Working with children isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s something I’ve built my career around!

Kayla is amazing! She did a great job handling our two young kids (4 and 1 years old) and was super sweet and friendly with them. They had a very positive experience. Highly recommend her!

I am A'kila [Uhh-kee-luhh]. What I love most about caregiving is having the opportunity to engage with a warm and loving family. My style of caregiving comes from a place of authenticity. Especially in regards to clients that are disabled. After caring for severely Autistic non verbal clients, I am privy to basic ABA therapy strategies and concepts. As well as navigating AAC devices. Since 2017, I have been caring for children of all ages, races and abilities from the ages of 3 months to 13 years young. Within that time, I have met hundreds of families from all walks of life. If you are hiring based on my experience, please look at my reviews for further insight. If you would like to set up an interview, I request we exchange references, so I too gain more insight as to your family dynamic with other sitters, which will give me an idea if we are a good match. What do I expect from you as a parent? Respect and open communication. It is my goal to work with, not for, a family. I give and put my time and effort into caregiving professionally. It is imperative, from the very start of our correspondence that we maintain a level of transparency , honesty and respect in an effort for us all to ultimately find a good match and waste as little of our time as possible in the process. Thank You, A'kila

Kids had a great time and really liked her!

"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

"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)."
