Tiffany $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Tiffany, and I’m 22 years old. I’ve been a professional nanny for over 5 years and have had the opportunity to work with more than 50 wonderful families. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to elementary-aged kids, in both full-time and part-time roles, nanny shares, date nights, and occasional care. Before becoming a nanny, I coached gymnastics for young children, which is where I realized how much I genuinely love working with kids. That experience taught me patience, creativity, and how to make learning and play fun while helping children build confidence. As a nanny, I’m comfortable with all aspects of childcare. I’ve cared for infants through every stage, prepared bottles and meals, changed diapers, followed nap schedules, helped with potty training, planned age-appropriate activities, and encouraged learning through play. I love spending time outdoors, going on walks, visiting parks, reading books, doing arts and crafts, sensory play, building forts, baking, playing games, and creating fun activities that keep children engaged while supporting their development. I’m also experienced with school-aged children and regularly handle school drop-offs and pick-ups, driving to activities, helping with homework, preparing snacks and meals, and keeping kids on a consistent routine. I have reliable transportation, a clean driving record, and I’m CPR certified, so parents can feel confident their children are in safe hands. I pride myself on being dependable, organized, patient, and easy to communicate with. I believe every child deserves a safe, loving, and engaging environment where they can learn, grow, and have fun. Building long-term relationships with families is one of my favorite parts of being a nanny, and I always strive to be someone both parents and children can trust. Outside of work, I love traveling, spending time with friends and family, and being outdoors. I truly enjoy what I do and feel so grateful to have a career that allows me to make a positive impact in children’s lives every day.

"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."

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)."
