Hi, my name is Jennifer and I am a Hispanic babysitter with over 3 years of experience working with children. In my first year, I had the joy of taking care of a 6-month-old from 7 am to 5 pm for a duration of 3 months. The following year, I looked after a 6-year-old from 6 pm to 10 pm for 5 months while balancing my morning college classes. Lastly, in my third year, I watched my neighbor's 3-year-old daughter for a couple of weeks from 9 am to 5 pm. With my diverse experience, I have worked with children of various age groups. From infants to toddlers and elementary school-aged children, I am comfortable and confident in providing quality care for each stage of development.

"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)."
