Amara $25 per hour for 1 child

Nurturing young minds and fostering their development is my passion. As a certified nursing assistant, I've gained invaluable experience caring for newborns and children with disabilities. My approach is patient and calm, and I prioritize open communication with you, following your preferred method for updates on your child's day. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy engaging children with outdoor sports, educational games, and even some technology-based fun. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I am comfortable caring for up to four children, ages 0-14. I am excited to bring my dedication and skills to your family, creating a safe and enriching environment for your little ones to thrive!

"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)."
