Booked by 1 family in Westchester, IL

I am a full-time Teacher Assistant at a school, where I work closely with toddler age children to support their learning, routines, and emotional development. I also attend college, where I am continuing my education and building skills that strengthen my ability to work with families. Through my work experience as an assistant teacher and occasional babysitter for neighbors, I have gained hands-on experience providing care, structure, and patience while helping children feel safe, supported, and encouraged. I genuinely love caregiving because I enjoy building trusting relationships and being someone children and families can rely on. On a personal note, I am a very patient, responsible, and warm person who values kindness and consistency, and I take pride in creating a positive and nurturing environment wherever I work.

"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)."
