I’m currently based in the Burlingame area for the summer and looking for weekend babysitting opportunities, with full availability coming up later in the summer as well. I’m a responsible and caring nanny with experience working with children ages 10 and up. I can help with routines, homework support, or just keeping kids engaged and active. I can also help with light household tasks such as laundry, loading/unloading the dishwasher, tidying up after the kids. I’m also an animal lover and happy to help with pet care! I can walk dogs, feed pets, and provide short-term care while families are traveling. Looking forward to connecting with families in the area!

"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

"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)."
