AVAILABLE FOR BACKUP CARE TRUSTLINE REGISTERED Not too long ago it was a tradition for an extended family member to step in as a caregiver for working parents. Now, there are many families who have moved to a new city for a career without a family member nearby. I specialize in taking loving care of children in my role as caregiver. I strive to prepare healthy kid-friendly meals and snacks for children. And I make use of other sites to find activities for little learners. I can keep your child engaged with reading books aloud and other fun and educational activities. I am very resourceful and patient with a sense of humor! For the past couple of years, I have worked as a nanny in share, and with one child alone. Those parents are very willing to be a reference for me. And I had a very successful run in Washington DC with many families from the region. Maybe I have cared for your family or friends in DC; I have more than 400 bookings there. I really look forward to working with your family!

Hello! I’m Nico and I bring a warm, grounded presence alongside a genuine passion for child development. My background spans 10 years of childcare experience inclusive of nannying, arts education through dance, tutoring, coaching, and one-on-one mentorship — these experiences have sharpened my ability to meet children where they are, build trust, and help them grow in confidence, creativity, and character. I understand that every child is different and I readily adapt my methods to care for children holistically, understanding their unique personalities, pace, and needs. I am professional, discreet, and respectful in my approach — one that always seeks to honor your family's privacy and maintain a standard of excellence in relational rapport. I am organized and proactive by nature, comfortable managing daily schedules, coordinating activities, and communicating clearly with parents and any household staff. I am reliable, flexible, and take pride in my ability to be fully present. My arts and movement background is something I love weaving into everyday life with children — whether that's an impromptu dance session, a creative project, or simply bringing energy and joy to the ordinary moments of the day. I believe the best childcare isn't just supervision — it's thoughtful, attentive companionship that allows children to feel safe, seen, and supported. I would love the opportunity to connect with new families and learn more about their caregiver needs.

Booked Nico for an interview. We appreciated her professionalism and interactions with our toddler during the interview. Her approach towards child care and development align with ours. We plan on booking her in the near future and having her as a recurring sitter for our kids.

I have extensive experience caring for children of all ages, and I specialize in applied behavioral analysis. Currently, I work in a school setting, supporting autistic children and children with disabilities in their development. I create a fun, engaging, and safe environment that fosters both learning and growth. My approach emphasizes structure and developmentally enriching activities, using play-based techniques to make learning enjoyable. For instance, I might turn toys into counting tools or transform everyday moments into skill-building opportunities. I am a compassionate, patient, and dedicated caregiver who genuinely loves working with children. Since the age of 15, I have cared for children, including those with autism, ensuring they feel supported, valued, and empowered. My goal is to provide a nurturing and educational space where children can thrive emotionally, socially, and cognitively in the classroom and at home, ultimately building productive individuals who contribute positively to society.

👋 Hi there!! My name is Alejandra and I’ve provided nanny services to families for 10+ years (including HP families) I have been taking care of newborns, toddlers and older kids as well (I can provide references) and kids with special needs. Throughout my experiences of watching/raising children, I’ve driven them to/from school, took them to private classes, played with them and made sure that they are happy, healthy, and safe always! Assisted with night routine, provided cooking for the kids and help with the family if needed. I’m CPR and First Aid certified. I speak Spanish and English, I can speak some Portuguese and Italian as well. I’ve been taking some courses (because I always like to learn new things and I find them helpful) including: Nutrition and cooking for kids, Foundation of Positive Psychology Specialization, Everyday Parenting. I love to do outdoor activities and workout in my free time, reading, traveling and watch movies! I also have experience watching dogs, including walking, feeding, playtime, and potty time. I absolutely love both kids and animals and would love to be able to work with your family!

Alejandra has been wonderful with our 2-year-old son, who quickly grew fond of her and loves playing with her. She is punctual, communicates well, and is warm, patient, and attentive with him. We’ve felt very comfortable having her care for him and would happily recommend 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."

"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)."
