Back on US and ready to hang! I approach care with the intent of meeting kids and families where they are. To me, this means understanding and engaging with a person based on their current situation, needs, abilities, or emotional state. By doing so, I develop relationships with care, emotional consideration, trust, and humor. I love discovering what excites kids and engaging with them through activities that spark their interests. This might include playing their favorite games (or inventing new ones), reading books, doing art projects, playing outside, going on walks, and more. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children, and that enthusiasm shines through in my interactions. Outside of professional care work, I am an arts administrator with a focus on dance and performance. I have produced dance festivals, performance series, and fundraising events. Recently, I got into the puppet biz—I co-directed my first puppetry piece in 2024 and am currently developing a puppet festival for summer 2025. I am also a collective member and coordinator with the Chicago Childcare Collective (ChiChiCo)—a group of volunteers who support the participation of parents, especially mothers, in racial and economic justice work. I am willing to explore some of the new services, such as pet care, US have added since my hiatus. I grew up with Great Danes and love critters! Policies & Guidelines Cancellations 1. Please provide at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations. I set aside this time specifically for your booking, and last-minute cancellations prevent me from connecting with other families. 2. If you no-show, I ask to be compensated for the full booking. Minimum Booking Requirement 1. I prefer a minimum booking of four hours. 2. Since I plan my time and budget around scheduled hours, I kindly request payment for the full booking, even if you arrive home early. Interviews 1. Please avoid scheduling interviews on Friday and Saturday evenings. 2. Phone interviews are preferred. Safety All firearms and weapons in the home must be safely locked and secured. COVID Precautions 1. I will remain masked indoors. 2. During sleep hours, I may request to unmask depending on your comfort level and proximity to the child.

ONLY AVAILABLE FOR DATE NIGHTS & WEEKENDS! .......BUT ALSO......... Available for P/T mornings & early afternoon beginning this fall... Hey! I'm Jasmin and I'm currently a fulltime Nanny/Household Manager for a family with 3 kiddos. Set of twins aged 5 & their 8 yr old brother. I will be transitioning to PT this fall as they will all begin full day school programs. I began as Night Nurse right after twins birth being that I'm also a Full Spectrum Doula & LactationEducator. I have tons of energy to match their needs as well as accomplish household duties. My skills with Time Management coupled with my slight OCD make an outstanding combination for a busy family with small children who need structure and cleanliness. I am very versatile and adaptable. I have been with all ages and have many years of experience. I ensure that the children remain in a safe environment while learning at the same time. I am a very punctual and respectful individual. I am very good with organizing and implementing rules as well.

"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)."
