Amanda Urbana
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Amanda and I'm a reliable and hardworking 26 year old caregiver. I’m incredibly passionate about raising kind, intelligent, strong, and creative human beings. With 8 years of experience as a professional nanny, I have extensive knowledge of child development and what it takes to support children through each stage of life. I lean into warmth, connection, and creativity while incorporating fun and educational activities into everyday life. I believe one of the most important things I can ever teach children is that every moment—however mundane it may be—is an opportunity for learning, growing, and having fun! Some of the responsibilities I’ve taken on as a nanny have included: -Planning age-appropriate activities to develop physical, emotional, and intellectual growth -Managing schedules -Cooking/feeding -Sleep/nap training -Potty training -Driving children to/from school, sports, play dates, etc. -Homework help -Laundry -General house tidying -Home organization -Grocery shopping or other errands -Any other miscellaneous child-related tasks In addition to building warm and nurturing relationships with the children I care for, I really value building strong relationships with the families I work for, as I recognize it truly does take a village. I look forward to connecting and possibly joining your village!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
