Hi! I’m Wailani, a dependable and caring nanny with 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. I’m experienced with school drop-offs and pick-ups, preparing healthy meals and snacks, planning age-appropriate activities, helping with homework, bedtime routines, and light household tasks related to the children. I believe in open communication with families and enjoy building long-lasting relationships based on trust and reliability. Families describe me as patient, organized, energetic, and attentive. I treat every child as if they were my own and love helping them reach new milestones. I look forward to finding a wonderful family that I can support and grow with!

Hello, I am a 24 year old university student working on their teaching credentials. I completed college and obtained my Associates degree in social and behavioral sciences as well as an Associates in Humanities. I have been babysitting for 8+ years now and I have always loved getting to grow/learn from every child’s needs! I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and older kids. I also have a little brother and sister so I have experience from first hand with babies and older children. I recently worked as a New Comers teacher helping students with learning English and homework. I am always patient and kind and willing to learn new things that accommodate to every child. I have awesome references as well ready to be provided. 🙂 I love to play the piano and write and books! I am very happy to do arts and crafts with children, take a stroll to the park or a museum, I have a clean driving record and up to date with all my vaccines! Please feel free to reach out and I can offer my resume or references from my past families!

"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)."
