Lisette $25 per hour for 1 child

I have about a decade of hands-on caregiving experience with children, households, pets, and families. I’ve worked as an early childhood teacher and long-term nanny, caring for infants through school-aged children, supporting daily routines, emotional development, meals, and play. I also bring strong household skills, including organization, meal prep, errands, and maintaining a calm, well-run home. I’m warm, reliable, emotionally intuitive, and highly observant. I create safe, nurturing environments and adapt easily to each family’s needs and values. I’m also very comfortable with pets and have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals. Families trust me because I’m steady, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in the well-being of the people (and animals) I care for.

"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)."
