Hello! I am 28 years old and born and raised in LA. I graduated from New York University as a psychology and American Sign Language student. I have an immense amount of special experience including being trained in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy and working with children on the Autism spectrum. I spent this past year working at a psychology consulting firm treating children with anxiety and behavior disorders. I was also a nanny and personal assistant for the same family in nyc for 9 years, I have worked with a variety of ages from 6 months to 12 years old. I love watching them learn and develop into unique individuals and contributing to that in any way is my true passion!

Hi, I’m Teacher Kayla 🌿 I’ve spent the last eight years working with kids ages 4–11, and I truly love what I do. I bring a playful, calm, and creative energy, with lots of back-pocket games, songs, stories, and activities to keep kids engaged and having fun. We might be building, playing sports outside, acting out stories, reading books, or winding down with mindfulness & deep breathing. I have a college degree, coursework in Early Child Development, experience as a classroom lead teacher, and I’m CPR and First Aid trained. I’m comfortable setting kind, clear boundaries and helping kids get along, follow routines, and feel supported. I keep communication with parents easy and consistent, and I’m happy to help with meals, carpooling, light housekeeping, swimming supervision, travel, and caring for up to three children. My goal is always to create a safe, fun space where kids feel confident—and parents feel at ease.

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.

Victoria is incredibly talented, professional, and incredibly affectionate with children! We highly recommend her services. She is passionate about her work, and we are grateful that our children have Vic’s unwavering support.

"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)."
