Booked by 1 family in Whiting, IN

With 7 years of hands-on childcare experience and as a mom to a wonderful 4-year-old, I bring both professional knowledge and heartfelt understanding to every family I work with. I’m highly creative and artistic, and I love planning age-appropriate games, crafts, and activities that encourage learning, imagination, and confidence. I’ve supported many families with multiple children, so I’m comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and needs with patience and positivity. My personality is quirky, bubbly, and warm, which helps me quickly build strong connections with children while creating a safe, joyful environment. I believe in nurturing trust while setting healthy boundaries in a caring and compassionate way, helping children feel secure, respected, and supported as they grow.

Manages temperaments and maintains energy, kindness and patience with 2 kids (ages 20 months and 5 months- not easy). Punctual, present & warm, her experience speaks for itself.

My name is Kayla. I’m a Chicago native with a background in hospitality. I began working as a CNA in high school at 16 and have been caring for people of different backgrounds since. I briefly studied children’s developmental sciences at NYU. I’ve worked with geriatric patients, patients with visual and physical impairments, developmental delays such as autism as well as some with memory loss disorders. I have 12 siblings and have cared for my nieces and nephews endlessly over the years. My most recent care has been with my nephew who is autistic, 5 now, who was fed via gtube for the first 2 years of his life. I love working with children and being hands on. I’m outgoing, personable and funny. I’m the life of the party when necessary but I handle my business with utmost care.

Booked by 18 families in Whiting, IN

I'm a recent graduate from Howard University with a degree in International Affairs and Community Development. My first experience working with children was at Blackstone Bicycle Works, teaching youth 6-13 how to ride a bike, bike mechanic skills, customer service skills, as well as lots of mentoring and tutoring. I've babysat siblings ranging from 4-10 yrs old since I was 16. I recently left my teaching position at Chicago Excel Academy in the Roseland community and wanted to jump back into more personal youth development and care. I love leaving a positive impact on children's lives and being the person to make them smile. I love being able to be apart of making children the best versions of themselves through proper support, love, and activities best for that particular child. I'm an activist and work hard for my community and taking care of/loving children is a huge part of that commitment.

Very sweet young lady. Kept an open line of communication with my family! Absolutely loved it.

"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)."
