I am a compassionate and responsible individual with extensive experience and childcare, having care for siblings, cousins and families, friends children over the years. My hands on experience has allowed me to develop strong skills in providing age, appropriate activities, maintaining a safe a safe environment, and offering emotional support to children various ages. I understand the importance of patience, communication, and creating a nurturing environment, where children can feel secure and happy. My goal as a nanny is to provide loving and attentive care, ensuring that each child, physical, emotional, and social needs are met while fostering a positive and fun atmosphere. In my spare time, I like to go to the gym, catch up with my siblings and spend time wanting to learn something new.

Feel free to contact me for any further questions. I would love to hear back from you.

This young lady cared for our child from the age of two months until our child was three years old, and she did an exceptional job. She was outstanding in every aspect of care, including preparing meals, ensuring daily walks and park outings, and providing educational activities such as teaching our child Spanish. Most importantly, she consistently respected and followed the boundaries we set as parents with great care and professionalism. Entrusting someone with our child is not something we take lightly, and she exceeded our expectations in every way. We highly recommend Ruth to any family seeking a reliable, attentive, and trustworthy caregiver.

Joy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello I'm a dependable caregiver with 15+ years of experience supporting children of all ages through roles at the YMCA, Disney Cruise Line, UCI, and in EdTech. I’ve led before- and after-school programs, camps, and family services, consistently bringing structure, creativity, and care to each setting. I recently completed a 4-year role as a part-time nanny for a family and am now available for weekday and select weekend care in the Long Beach area. I love engaging children through hands-on, screen-free activities like arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, music, and reading. I focus on creating calm, safe environments where kids feel supported and excited to learn. Whether caring for an infant, guiding a toddler through daily routines, or supporting a school-aged child with homework and social-emotional development, I tailor my approach to each child’s needs. I’m happy to assist with school drop-offs, pick-ups, light meals, homework, and pet care. I prioritize open communication and build strong, trusting relationships with every family. If you're looking for a calm, reliable caregiver who’s truly invested in your child’s well-being, I’d love to connect!

"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)."
