I am a caring, responsible, and patient caregiver with both professional experience and real-life parenting experience. I am the mother of a 3-year-old child, so I understand firsthand the love, attention, and responsibility that caring for a baby or young child requires. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from my home country, and I currently work providing behavioral therapy to children with autism, which has strengthened my skills in emotional regulation, structure, patience, and child development. I truly enjoy working with children and focus on creating a safe, calm, and structured environment where they feel loved, understood, and supported. I am very attentive to routines, safety, and each child’s individual needs. I can help with: Daily childcare routines Meal preparation Light household tasks related to the child Educational and developmental activities I value clear and honest communication with parents and treat every child as if they were my own. My primary language is Spanish, and I can understand and communicate in English. I am reliable, nurturing, and flexible with my schedule. I would be happy to care for your child with dedication, respect, and warmth.

"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)."
