Clara $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m a warm, reliable, and experienced caregiver with over 7 years of experience working with children of all ages through nannying, preschool support, gymnastics, ballet instruction, and mental health care. Creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children is something I genuinely love. For the past 5 years, I’ve worked in an inpatient mental health setting supporting toddlers and young children with behavioral and psychiatric needs, which has given me strong skills in patience, emotional support, communication, and staying calm under pressure. I’m CPR, First Aid, BLS, and CPI certified, and currently pursuing nursing school as well. Along with my healthcare background, I also have experience helping children learn, play, build confidence, and stay active through movement and creativity. Families describe me as dependable, attentive, calm, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your children, and I always aim to make both kids and parents feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. A little about me outside of work — I’m also a mom to a 4-year-old daughter, so I truly understand the importance of patience, safety, routines, and creating a loving environment where children feel secure and happy.

"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)."
