Booked by 3 families in Redwood City, CA

Hi, I’m Andreina, a 36 years old caregiver based in Redwood City with a genuine passion for supporting families in their daily lives. I bring over three years of hands on experience working with children of different age groups, from toddlers to teens, always prioritizing structure, clear communication and a positive atmosphere. One of my favorite things is guiding children to develop their intuition, helping them go beyond what their eyes can see and trust what they feel inside. I love incorporating movement and dance into our time together, as a way to express emotions, shift energy and bring joy into everyday moments. Beyond childcare, I have solid experience in pet care, animal behavior and training. I have a natural ability to read energy and communicate with animals on a deeper level, which allows me to truly understand their needs and keep them calm and balanced. I’m detail-oriented, dependable and grounded in values like healthy living and mindfulness. I believe that truly caring for a family means showing up with integrity every single day. Whether you need help with your little ones, your pets or household tasks, I’m here to make your life a little easier. Let’s connect!

“Recommended 100%, Andreina is a rocket. She puts our kids down very fast, she's very nice, has a healthy style of living. Loves our girls and pets which is amazing because our pets and girls love her too. I trust her and love her passion for her job.”

"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)."
