Hi! While I’m new to this app, I bring 8+ years of hands-on childcare experience working with children of all ages.

I always aim to make both kids and parents feel at ease. I understand trusting someone new can feel like a big step, so I’m happy to answer any questions, provide references, or even do a quick call beforehand for peace of mind. Looking forward to supporting your family! bilingual in English and Spanish Families describe it me as trustworthy, attentive, and easy to communicate with, with a strong ability to adapt to each household’s needs while maintaining consistency and care. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 15 years old.

Hi I’m Jaid! I am currently a student studying Dental Assisting with the intention of going into Pediatrics once I complete my certification! I currently work with two amazing girls 3x a week in the afternoon hours (availability is updated). I come from a family of 6, with two much younger siblings that have given me the love and experience for child care as a built-in babysitter. I have also had the privilege of babysitting for family friends, whenever I am needed. I'm known for my enthusiasm and positivity, that goes along great with kids. I love doing activities to keep them excited and involved. I believe in open communication with parents and keep them updated throughout the day. I am not afraid of late hours!!! Let me know!

"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)."
