Hola! I’m Eimy, and I’m from Colombia. I have been taking care of children for more than 9 years. I started working with kids as an Au Pair. I was an Au Pair for two years, and since completing the program, I’ve continued caring for my two host kids occasionally. I’ve also babysitting for other families, some long-term and others occasionally. I enjoy working with kids because you’re constantly learning from them. They’re full of questions, and ready to conquer the world. I have experience with children of all ages, from 2 months old to 14 years old. I’m CPR certified, and I also have experience working with children who need extra support with focus and energy regulation. Feel free to ask for references or if you have any other questions.

"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)."
