Susan $23 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Brookfield, IL

Hi my name Susan. I am offering child care services. I have experience working with newborns to 10 year olds. My first job (when I was 15) was taking care of 2 kids in my home. I enjoyed it so much I was sure I would have a career in child care. My senior year of high school I Nannied for 3 kids, all under the age of 10. A couple of years after I stopped nanny the kids, my nephew was born and I became his secondary care giver . All of my friends have children as well and I’ve gained experience through them as well. I currently work with a family of two boys ages 4 and 7. I have been working for them for 2.5 years. I currently create schedules, laundry, cleaning, and creative activities. My strengths are remaining calm and patient in high pressure and creative problem solving. I pride myself in becoming an addition to the family and helping them stay organized and on schedule. I am a strong believer in learning at a young age. I would offer learning a second language, learning numbers, colors, and shapes, as long as having intellectual conversations and developmental experiences to help your child be the smartest cookie! I am bilingual and know a little bit of sign language since my niece uses it as a form of communication. I am willing to teach kids Spanish. The current family and I took a CPR course at home but do not have a certificate to show for it.

"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)."
