Victoria Alhambra
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Victoria, I’m 29 years old, and I’m a graduate of California State University, Fullerton with a degree in History. My background is in secondary education, and I’ve always had a deep passion for working with children. I have four years of nannying experience with kids ranging in age from 4 to 18, and I find so much joy in supporting both their academic and creative development. I believe childhood enrichment is incredibly important, and I love incorporating fun and educational activities into daily routines. As an artist who enjoys drawing and painting, I’m always excited to share those skills with children and encourage their creativity. I’m also available to tutor in a wide range of school subjects, including help with homework, projects, and essay writing. In addition to childcare, I’m a huge animal lover! I have two cats and one dog of my own, all of whom I’ve raised since they were young. I’d be happy to help care for family pets as part of my role. My goal as a nanny is simple: to make your life easier. Whether that means running errands, assisting with pet care, helping with older family members, or creating a safe, structured, and engaging environment for your children—I’m here to support your family however I can.

Hi! I’m a caring, dependable, and energetic person who genuinely loves spending time with kids! 💛 I have an education in Child Development and experience working with children in my community and around the world, including children’s homes in India and Africa. These experiences have taught me how important it is to make every child feel safe, valued, and understood. I love getting to know each child’s personality and finding ways to make our time together fun, whether we’re playing, crafting, reading, exploring, or just being silly! 😊 My goal is for your kids to feel happy and cared for while you have peace of mind.

"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

"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)."
