Hi! I’m a UC STEM grad with 10 years of nanny experience. I’ve worked with kids of all ages and love creating a fun, supportive space where they can learn and grow. My background as an EMT, behaviorist, and tutor helps me bring both structure and creativity to each day. I’m happy to help with meals, homework, and routines, and I enjoy teaching music, coding, biking, skating, and swimming. Outside of childcare, I’m a dog parent and a living room musician. I love being outdoors and spend my free time hiking, surfing, playing basketball, motorcycling, sailing, and rock climbing.

“Marie swooped in and saved us at the last minute. She came with big smiles and the kids had such a fun time with her. We can’t wait to see Marie again. ”

I bring over 30 years of real-life, hands-on experience supporting families, homes, children, and seniors. I am the proud mother of six children, all grown and thriving, whom I homeschooled with care, patience, and intention. Being a mom is my greatest joy, and caregiving is truly second nature to me. I’ve also successfully raised two dogs and a cat, so I understand the dynamics of busy, loving households and feel very comfortable in them. In addition to parenting, I spent many years working as a house manager, where I supported families by keeping their homes organized, running smoothly, and stress-free. I see myself as an extension of your family—someone who steps in to assist where needed, whether that’s childcare, senior care, household chores, or day-to-day support. I’m dependable, adaptable, and proactive, with a strong understanding of how homes function best when care and structure work together. I have professional experience in home health care with seniors and approach elder care with compassion, dignity, and respect. I’m comfortable assisting with daily needs, companionship, light household tasks, and creating a calm, supportive environment. I truly value caring for people at every stage of life. With children, I’m patient and attentive, and I take time to understand how each child learns and processes information so I can help bring out their best—academically, emotionally, and creatively. I enjoy crafts, sewing my own clothes, and hands-on activities, and I love introducing children to meaningful skills and creativity. I also enjoy preparing wholesome foods, including making homemade organic fruit roll-ups from scratch. I’m very comfortable around dogs and horses—my children grew up around horses—and while I’m slightly allergic to cats, I have owned one and manage it well. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, experienced, nurturing, and capable caregiver who truly loves supporting families and homes, I would be honored to work with you. For more than seven years, I’ve worked closely with senior citizens, including patients living with dementia and Alzheimer’s. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and truly understanding each individual’s needs. I’m quick-thinking, naturally witty, and able to adjust seamlessly in challenging moments, which allows me to connect easily, de-escalate situations, and provide care with both professionalism and heart.

"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)."
