Sonia $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi Everyone, I am an Alumni at Saint Mary’s College of California. Currently, I am studying for the DAT to pursue a career in Dentistry. I have 3 cats and one dog who are my fur babies. I have loved animals since I was really young and still continue to feel that way. I became an auntie in 2019 to my niece who is now 6 years old. I babysat her when she was newborn, an infant, a toddler up until now. Along with that, I have three other beautiful nieces and nephews who I have had even more experiences with in babysitting. When babysitting them, I change diapers, bathe them, outdoor/indoor activities, reading, feed them and doing their nighttime routine for bed. Overtime, I learned more about kids such as working with each of them differently depending on the differences in personalities. My favorite days are the ones of taking my niece to school because it brings me back to my childhood. Babysitting has made me realize that my happiness is when I am with kids. It taught me to be patient, prioritize them, communicate with them and cherish every moment. This is why I am looking for a part time job for babysitting or working with animals, doing two things that I love!

"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

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
