Hello, I am Yusleidy, I have a 9-year-old girl so I have experience in taking care of children, and they don't know how lovely it is to work with what you love so much that are children. To be able to work and enjoy at the same time the laughter and mischief of the little ones at home. I'm learning English as a second language. I am a responsible, reliable woman and I always put your child's safety and well-being first. I think childcare is more than a job, it is an opportunity to build meaningful connections with families and help support the growth and development of your children.

In my 20s, I started my childcare journey working as a temporary/fill-in nanny through nanny agencies, and I worked for several years as the full-time nanny/mother's helper for a family with 6 children. I have raised and home schooled my own children and have cared for several step-children including one with special needs. I have worked with elementary, middle school, and high school students (including as a camp director, counselor, and staff member). I have a clean driving record, and if I were to transport your children, I would be as careful and attentive to them as I would be with my own. I have taken Red Cross Adult/Infant First Aid/CPR/AED training. I am looking for jobs working with families who have fun together, value responsibility and kindness, and communicate well. I want your kid(s) to feel well cared for, and I think while you are out doing what you need to do, your child(ren) ought to have a really great experience too! I have most recently nannied for a toddler who is now going into full-time pre-k. I have a special place in my heart, and arms, for the very young babies, too. I have experience in home organization and management, 24-hour/overnight childcare (house-sitting and pet-sitting included), childcare in a hotel/BnB setting, as well as caregiving for conventions and the like along with a group of other childcare workers. I have helped my families with food prep, laundry, errands, senior companion care, and caregiving (as well as tutoring) for all ages of children. I’d love to meet you and your child(ren)!! 🥳

Hello, My name is Alyssa, and I am a bilingual professional fluent in Spanish with basic knowledge of American Sign Language (ASL). I am currently seeking either a one-time care opportunity and open to being a regular babysitter. I hold a degree in early education and am a certified lead teacher with over 7,000 hours of childcare experience. I have a teaching background at The Gardner School, where I have taught appropriate curriculum for children ranging from 6 weeks to 6 years old. In addition to my teaching experience, I am also currently a professional nanny. I am CPR certified and have a 5-year-old child of my own, which adds to my understanding and experience in childcare. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need further information.

Absolutely wonderful! The kids had so much fun and I had peace of mind — priceless. My kids are already asking when she can come back.

Providing exceptional, reliable childcare has been a consistent thread throughout my life. I began as a trusted neighborhood babysitter and went on to nanny full-time during college, where I developed a strong foundation in supporting families with varying needs and dynamics. One of my most formative roles involved caring for newborn twins through age four, while seamlessly supporting the family as they welcomed a third child. I later expanded my experience through a structured nanny share and ongoing placements supporting multiple families. Today, I work full-time in the tech industry and continue to partner with families seeking high-quality, dependable care for date nights, travel, and special engagements. I bring extensive experience working with children of all ages, including multiples and children with diverse needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified and well-versed in early childhood development, allowing me to provide care that is both engaging and developmentally thoughtful. My approach is warm, attentive, and highly adaptable. I prioritize creating a safe, structured, and enriching environment while also bringing a sense of creativity and fun to each interaction. I am equally comfortable supporting daily routines as I am integrating into travel schedules or new environments, ensuring a seamless experience for both parents and children. As an advanced skier and former instructor, I am well-suited for families who enjoy mountain travel and active lifestyles. I am also comfortable in homes with pets and happy to assist as needed. I have experience traveling with families to destinations including Cozumel, Oahu, San Diego, Seattle, and St. Louis, and understand the level of flexibility, discretion, and professionalism required in those settings. Currently booking for date nights and travel with advance notice. Fully vaccinated and happy to provide documentation upon request. I look forward to connecting and supporting your family with care you can trust.

"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)."
