Mahliyah $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Orinda, CA

Hello, my name is Mahliyah, and I am 20 years old. I graduated from Pittsburg High School in 2024, and was a dedicated student-athlete. Throughout my life, I have gained extensive experience working with children of various ages, beginning at a young age. My mother worked in several preschool settings, including Bright Horizons and Redwood Forest Preschool, where I regularly volunteered and assisted teachers and staff in supporting young children. In addition to my volunteer experience, I have played an active role in helping care for my younger siblings and cousins and have provided babysitting services for multiple families over the years. These experiences have strengthened my ability to build meaningful relationships with children by adapting to their unique personalities, needs, and energy levels. Whether providing a calm, supportive environment or engaging in fun, active play, I strive to create a positive and nurturing experience for every child. I am patient, compassionate, dependable, and committed to supporting each child’s individual growth and well-being. I am currently employed as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), a role I have held for a little over a year. Working in applied behavior analysis has strengthened my communication, problem-solving, and behavior management skills while reinforcing my passion for helping children reach their full potential. I implement individualized behavior intervention plans, teach and reinforce new skills, and support clients in achieving meaningful developmental goals. One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is witnessing the progress my clients make over time and celebrating their accomplishments alongside their families. Because each client has unique strengths and challenges, I have learned to remain flexible, patient, and creative in my approach to care. I am CPR certified as I feel that is a necessity to working with children. Beyond childcare, I am happy to assist with household tasks such as cleaning and organizing, which I believe are important in creating a comfortable and structured space for children to thrive. I am also very comfortable around animals and have a genuine love for them. I have experience caring for both small and large dogs and currently have two dogs at home—a pitt bull and a Maltipoo mix.

"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)."
