Diamond $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Diamond! Working with kids is honestly my superpower. I currently work at a daycare with children from infants to 5 years old, and I’ve also helped run summer camps for kids of all ages. I’m active in youth ministry too, where I work with both little ones and teens, so I know how to connect, communicate, and keep things fun no matter the age group. I have all my childcare certifications, and i am CPR and First Aid trained for children and adults. Kids have always felt safe around me, I’ve got that natural connection that makes them open up, try new things, and step out of their comfort zone. Parents joke that I’m the “child whisperer” because of how quickly children gravitate toward me, and honestly… they might be onto something! I’m also big on being dependable and helpful beyond just babysitting. I have my own transportation, so I can handle pickups, drop-offs, and errands if needed. I believe in leaving a home better than I found it, which means cleaning up after activities, meals, and playtime is always part of the job for me. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning creative activities, sticking to bedtime routines, or just making sure your child feels heard and cared for, I bring the energy, the patience, and the trust. Most importantly, I make sure kids have fun, while parents get peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone reliable, experienced, nurturing, and a little bit magical with kids, I’m your girl! 😊

"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)."
