Sally $30 per hour for 1 child

Dear Families, My name is Sally, and I am a compassionate, reliable nanny with 20 years of experience in childcare. My background as a preschool teacher, along with Montessori training, has given me a strong foundation in child development and age-appropriate activities. I am passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. I am CPR and First Aid certified, up to date with my COVID and flu vaccinations, and experienced in creating and maintaining structured schedules and routines. I excel in organizing age-appropriate, educational activities and games that foster social, emotional, and cognitive development. As a nanny, I will:    •   Ensure a safe, positive environment for your children at all times.    •   Plan engaging and educational activities tailored to their developmental needs.    •   Prepare meals and snacks that align with dietary preferences and restrictions.    •   Follow nap schedules and daily routines to support consistency.    •   Communicate openly with parents regarding progress, concerns, and milestones. I am also comfortable around animals, making me a great fit for families with pets. My goal is to provide peace of mind for parents and create a happy, enriching experience for your children.

"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)."
