Hi I’m Jaid! I am currently a student studying Dental Assisting with the intention of going into Pediatrics once I complete my certification! I currently work with two amazing girls 3x a week in the afternoon hours (availability is updated). I come from a family of 6, with two much younger siblings that have given me the love and experience for child care as a built-in babysitter. I have also had the privilege of babysitting for family friends, whenever I am needed. I'm known for my enthusiasm and positivity, that goes along great with kids. I love doing activities to keep them excited and involved. I believe in open communication with parents and keep them updated throughout the day. I am not afraid of late hours!!! Let me know!

Hi all! I have been a sitter for the last 16 years. Throughout the 16 years, I have been consistent working with families. I have experience working with twins and up to 2 siblings at one time. Experience with all ages ranging from newborn up until teenagers. I am opened to taking your child to local parks and libraries, working on arts and crafts, and reading. Looking for a part time or full time position as the child who I previously cared for has transitioned to TK part time. Being around pets is no problem. CPR trained. I can absolutely provide letter of recommendations! Fun fact: I have three children.

Hello! My love and care for engaging with children and helping them grow inspired me to pursue a BA in Child & Adolescent Development at CSUN. I've learned a lot about the social and emotional sciences of children and healthy ways of disciplining. I'm very fascinated with shaping a child to be a vocal, positive, ambitious and kind person. After all, they are the future! In my senior year, I wanted to supplement my academics with real world experience and have successfully cared for children ages 1 through 10 for the past 2 years through a school environment and private nannying/and babysitting. I've been responsible for school drop-offs and pick-ups, tutoring sessions, playtime activities, and have created memorable and educational experiences for children by taking them on interactive outings. I find myself loving 1-on-1 childcare environments and am looking for my next opportunity to help a child thrive on their own individual journey. I'm hoping to bring my upbeat and positive attitude to an active, engaging home.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
