Hello families! I am a dedicated and nurturing nanny with over 5 years of experience supporting families and caring for children from newborns to 10 years old. Originally from Brazil, I came to the U.S. as an au pair in 2021 and have worked consistently with the same family since then. I am passionate about early childhood development, creating engaging activities, and fostering safe, supportive environments for children.

Hi, I'm Tatiana! As a longtime aunt to my three nieces and nephews (ages 1.5 to 11) and a Child Development graduate, caring for children is truly second nature to me. Although I’m new to this app and building my profile, I’d be honored to bring my experience and big heart to your family! Professionally, I’ve worked in both childcare centers and elementary schools. I’ve worked with tiny babies all the way up to 5th grade, and have experience working with children with special needs. I’m dependable, patient, punctual and love keeping children engaged through crafts, reading, or outdoor adventures.

"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)."
