Emily $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a recent graduate from UCLA with a Bachelor’s degree in English and Professional Writing with years of experience in childcare, tutoring, and family support. As the eldest sibling in a large family, I played a huge role in helping raise my four younger brothers (ages 5–16), supporting them with schoolwork, routines, and daily care — so working with kids truly feels second nature to me. I’ve also worked professionally as a nanny, babysitter, and tutor for children from 6 months to 9 years old, and currently tutor students from elementary through college level. I’m patient, dependable, and great at building positive, encouraging relationships with kids of all ages. Childcare: I’m comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens. I love doing creative activities like reading, arts and crafts, and helping with homework, as well as keeping kids engaged through play and structured routines. I offer tutoring support, homework help, and light meal prep. Pet Care: I’m comfortable around pets and happy to help with feeding, walking, playtime, and general care. I’m responsible and attentive, and as a pet owner myself I understand how important it is that pets feel safe and cared for when their owners are away. Household Services: I have experience with light housekeeping, organizing, errands, and helping families keep things running smoothly. I’m happy to assist with laundry, tidying, dishes, and basic meal prep. I’m certified in food handling, and I bring a calm, organized, and caring presence to every home I work in. I’d love to support your family however I can!

"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)."
