Booked by 9 families in Lemon Grove, CA

My name is Karine, I’m 25 years old, and I’m from Brazil I’m a very friendly, organized, dedicated, and extroverted person — and I absolutely love pets! 🐶🐱 🗣️ Languages Portuguese (native) Spanish (fluent — I can teach Spanish during the day!) English (advanced) 📚 Courses & Certifications Introduction to Solid Foods First Aid Certificate Child Behavior Children's Neuroscience 🌎 My Experience I volunteered as a teacher in Mexico, working with socially vulnerable children. I also completed an exchange program in Orlando, where I lived with an American host family and studied English. I have strong references, first aid certification, and all vaccinations up to date. I don’t smoke, and I lead a very healthy, active lifestyle. 🌟 Additional Skills I’m very creative and love to inspire that in children too! Great with babies – especially when it comes to helping them fall asleep 💤 Happy to assist with light housekeeping and pet care (for an additional fee) I’m also a swimming instructor 🏊‍♀️ 📍I’m in Little Italy One important point I’d like to clarify: if a job is canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice, I believe it would be fair to pay 50% of the agreed rate. This is because I’ve already organized my schedule around the job and may have turned down other opportunities because I was committed to working that day.

“Karine is a wonderful! She took great care of my daughter and I definitely look forward to reaching out to her again :)”

"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)."
