Im always up for playing dress-up, reading stories, or helping with homework and keeping them happy. I'm I'm available for both last-minute and scheduled babysitting, and I'm happy to help out with meal prep and light housekeeping. Im always open to chatting on the phone before to see if I'm a good fit for your family. Some things about me personally are I love to hike and do anything outdoors that involves nature, I also love to read and play sports! I’ve done 3 mission trips over in Africa, volunteering in the child care and teaching program as well.

On time, hands on, and very friendly with the kids. Would definitely hire again!

Hello, My name is Busisiwe, but I go by Busi. I am from South Africa and relocated to the United States in 2017 as an Au Pair, where I had the privilege of spending two enriching years with two wonderful host families, with whom I still maintain strong connections. In 2019, I began my studies in Child Development and Behavioral and Social Sciences, graduating in 2022. I have been working with children for 10 years. It all started when I volunteered at daycare and preschool centers during high school in South Africa. I later worked as an Au Pair, then as a nanny during college, and also spent a year as a Preschool Teacher to learn more about early childhood education. In my professional journey, I have gained valuable experience working with children with autism and ADHD. This aspect of my work is particularly close to my heart, and I have developed specialized skills to support and engage these children effectively. Currently, I work primarily with children who have Autism Spectrum Disorder (high-functioning) and ADHD, while taking a break from my degree in Occupational Therapy. This experience has deepened my understanding of the unique needs and strengths of children, enhancing my skills in creating supportive and engaging environments for their development. In my free time, I enjoy reading, singing, socializing with family and friends, hiking, and prioritizing physical fitness through regular workouts. Thank you for considering my profile. I look forward to the opportunity to connect further. Warm regards, Busi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SITTER POLICIES: 1. Illness Policy- Due to the ongoing viruses, I would kindly ask to please inform me in advance if someone is not feeling well. 2. Interview Method - For interviews, I am available via phone, FaceTime, or Zoom only. 3. Cancellation Policy- If you need to cancel a booking within 24 hours or less, 50% of the booking fee will be charged. For cancellations within 12 hours or less, the full fee will be charged. 4. Rates are non-negotiable. Kindly confirm that you have read and agree to these policies. Thank you for your cooperation and trust.

I hired Busi to work with my 3 year old while I was traveling for work. She really came through after another sitter cancelled. My son is non verbal and has ADHD. Busi really understood and connected with him. She was professional and recommended things to me I had totally forgotten in my haste to find a new babysitter - like sharing her location so I knew where they were at all times. I highly recommend Busi and will reach out to her the next time I’m traveling for work.

Hi! I recently moved back to Los Angeles from Texas and am looking to connect with some wonderful families! I’ve been nannying for the past 7 years and have experience caring for kids of all ages. I’m kind, easy-going, creative, and love keeping kids engaged—whether that’s playing outside, going for walks, helping with homework, or coming up with fun crafts and activities. I’m currently looking for part-time and occasional babysitting opportunities, including date nights and weekend help. My schedule is pretty flexible while I’m still in school and growing my career in the creative arts, so I’m happy to work around different schedules and needs. Looking forward to meeting you and your family 🌹

Super kind and patient with my 8 months old

Loved Zuri! As soon as she arrived she took over immediately and was super caring with my son. Although the night was cut short I was really anxious about him being in others care and she was able to exceed her expectations definitely will continue to book with her.

"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)."
