Oveline $10 per hour for 1 child

I am a qualified, dedicated, and naturally caring individual with a strong background in childcare, pet care, and household management. Over the years, I have developed not only practical experience but also a wide range of personal talents and professional traits that allow me to succeed as a caregiver. I believe that being a great caregiver requires more than simply watching over children or pets—it requires patience, attentiveness, organizational skills, creativity, and a genuine love for helping families thrive in their daily lives. In the following description, I will highlight in detail my qualifications, talents, and traits that make me an outstanding caregiver, with an emphasis on my experience with children, pets, and housekeeping. Qualifications in Childcare I have hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. This includes feeding, diaper changes, nap time routines, helping with homework, engaging in play, and offering emotional support. I understand the importance of creating a safe, structured environment where children feel both secure and inspired. I am familiar with child development milestones and adapt my caregiving style to each child’s age and personality. For example, with younger children, I focus on patience, playful learning, and nurturing, while with older children, I combine guidance with encouragement for independence. My qualifications extend to tutoring basic reading, math, and creative arts, as well as promoting positive behavior through consistent routines and gentle discipline. Qualifications in Pet Care I am also skilled in caring for pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals. I can provide walking, feeding, grooming, playtime, and companionship. My natural love for animals allows me to connect with them quickly, and I always make their safety and comfort a priority. I understand the responsibility of following feeding schedules, administering medications when necessary, and keeping pets active through exercise and play. Families who trust me with their pets know that they will be treated with kindness, respect, and affection. Qualifications in Housekeeping In addition to childcare and pet care, I bring strong housekeeping and organizational skills that help families manage their homes more effectively. I have experience with general household cleaning such as vacuuming, dusting, mopping, laundry, and sanitizing kitchens and bathrooms.

"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)."
