Angel $20 per hour for 1 child

I have experience caring for children of different ages, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for them. I’ve helped with daily routines such as homework, playtime, organizing activities, and keeping a consistent schedule. I understand how important it is for children to feel comfortable, supported, and engaged. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I always make safety my top priority. I communicate well with both children and parents, making sure everyone feels heard and informed. I enjoy being creative through games, crafts, and outdoor activities, and I’m able to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. While I don’t have much experience with cooking yet, I’m very willing to learn and follow any instructions or meal guidelines provided. What makes me a great caregiver is my genuine care for children, my strong sense of responsibility, and my ability to stay calm and positive in any situation. I strive to build trust and create a warm environment where kids can learn, grow, and have fun.

"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."

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)."
