Hello, my name is Ariadni, I am currently completing my last year at CSUN. I have also completed schooling for CCMA and have received my Medical Assistant certification from the NHA. I have 3 years of experience as a Physical Therapist aide at Sports Academy Thousand Oaks. As an aide I have worked with adults, teens, and children. 2[removed] I committed a year to volunteering at Shepherd of the Hills in Porter Ranch in their kid’s ministry. I helped take care of 2nd-5th grade boys and girls every weekend. With the kids I would do arts n’ crafts activities, play board games, color, and be a friend they can talk with. From 2022 til now, I have also been a youth leader at my church for a group of 6th grade girls who are now going into 10th grade. I meet with them every Wednesday night and plan on continuing to do so until they graduate high school. I am very comfortable around children and my goal after school is to go into PA school to eventually become a pediatric PA. I am also comfortable around pets, especially dogs, as I have a husky myself and I couldn’t ask for a better dog :)

"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)."
