20+ years of professional experience & ECE Degree. I am safe, loving and love to teach and help children explore. Some things of importance to me as a person/nanny are freedom, transparency, quality time, positivity and encouragement both things I give and like to receive. I am open minded and have been told my communication skills are sincerely appreciated. I enjoy making up new stimulating activities for children of all ages, and diving into their world with them! I take a customized approach based on how your child learns and likes/dislikes, I love being goofy 😜 . I don’t believe in ā€˜forcing’ anything and love to create a strong bond of mutual respect and trust . I practice positive discipline regardless of age or situation and don’t believe in hitting or yelling belittling/shaming and will ONLY raise my voice if it’s keeping your little one away from danger (fire,cars, sharp objects). I can cook, meal prep, run errands, laundry, I love cleaning but your child will ALWAYS be my number one priority! I’ve always been expected to tidy/clean whilst caring for little ones so I build that into my routine (often talking your child through it with me or having them help me with small tasks) I do have experience with special diets (soy free/gluten free/dairy free, vegan/vegatarian, halal) and allergies. First hand Epi pen experience. Experience with seizures ā™¾ļøšŸ§©Physical disability, Anxiety, extensive Autism & ADHD experience! Positivity, Safety, creating a bond of trust with you and your child(ren), singing & dancing! Genuinely engaging your child in stimulating activities such as art and music , creative play, walking in nature, reading and writing , celebrating your child’s wins no matter how big or small, and just letting kids be kids is what I’m all about. šŸ˜‰ *Cleaning & Organizing Aficionado* šŸŽØArts & Crafts Guru who will bring supplies for special projects. šŸŽ¤ I love singing and will often use music as a tool for daily activities that your child may struggle with. šŸš— Access to reliable vehicle Acura TL or Honda Accord (insured) 🧼 šŸ«¶šŸ¼ washing hands frequently 🩺 Infant CPR certification expired but will renew it upon request. * IF IM IN DOUBT ON WHAT YOUR WISHES WOULD BE IN ā€˜XYZ’ SITUATION I WILL CONTACT YOU IMMEDIATELY & if not available then use my best judgement.

Hi - My name is Britney I’m currently a student this year’s fall semester is my last semester. I’ve been around kids/children my whole life. I’ve always babysit my baby cousins, nieces & nephews when my love ones need them some ā€œME TIMEā€ :) . Children are a bundle of joy & I love it . On my free time I like to cook , listen to Audio books, ride bikes , & do fun activities šŸ¤ I’m so excited!

Aloha! 😊 I’m Noemi. Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my profile! I’m 37 years young and have over 12 years of experience caring for children of all ages. Working with children has truly been one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel incredibly blessed to have built lasting relationships with so many wonderful families over the years. My experience includes caring for infants, teaching toddlers their ABCs and 123s, and helping school-aged children with homework and after-school activities. Every child is unique, and I love creating a nurturing environment where they feel safe, loved, encouraged, and free to be themselves. As a nanny, my goal is to become a trusted extension of your family. I believe children learn best through play, exploration, and meaningful interactions. I enjoy planning fun and engaging activities like trips to the park, library visits, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, story time, playdates, and other age-appropriate activities that encourage learning, creativity, and confidence. Parents describe me as caring, dependable, patient, organized, and trustworthy. I understand how important it is to leave your children with someone you can truly trust, and I take that responsibility to heart. Your child’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I am fortunate to have wonderful references from families I’ve had the privilege of working with, and they would be happy to share their experiences with you. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, I’d love the opportunity to connect, answer any questions, and learn more about your family’s needs. Thank you again for considering me. I look forward to meeting you and hopefully becoming a positive part of your family’s journey! šŸ’›

ā€œA big Noemi fan! ā€

"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)."
