Graciela 3 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Graciela. I’m a dedicated and experienced childcare provider with 6+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I have a strong background in after-school care, homework support, teaching children Spanish and planning engaging, age-appropriate activities. I genuinely love spending time with children and I always strive to connect with them at their level. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your family!

“Graciela was kindly recommended to us by a friend last summer and she's been on speed dial ever since. She is passionate about kids and her important role as caregiver, babysitter, teacher, etc. She has sat for us several times and every time the kids have a ball and can't wait to see here again. My daughter's birthday was in May and when Graciela showed up for a sitting stint at our home in July she came with birthday presents for my daughter and even a gifto for my older son. She's extremely thoughtful and loving and we are lucky to have her in our circle.”

"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)."
