Hi! My name is Marvin! I currently work as a Behavior Interventionist with hands-on experience supporting children across developmental stages and needs, from toddlers to teens, neurodivergent to gifted. I’m offering child care, tutoring, and household help. I’ve been caring for kids since I was young. I'm the oldest of four siblings and have experience with newborns, toddlers, school-aged children, and teens. I’ve worked as a Writing Consultant and tutor, helping students with everything from reading to college essays. I’m comfortable with homework help, emotional regulation, and creating calm, structured routines. I’ve worked in classrooms, homes, and one-on-one settings, and I adapt easily to each child’s personality and needs. Whether your child is shy, energetic, neurodivergent, or just needs a little extra support, I show up with patience, clarity, and care. I’m happy to help with light cleaning, errands, and pet care. While I don’t have formal experience with animals, I’m gentle, reliable, and open to learning your pet’s routine.

I’m compassionate, patient, dependable, and highly organized. I communicate effectively, remain calm under pressure, and adapt quickly to changing situations. Caring for my family has strengthened my ability to multitask, solve problems, and put others’ well-being first—qualities that I believe make me a dedicated and capable caregiver.

"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."

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)."
