Isabella $16 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Petersburg, KY

Hello! I am Isabella, and believe I am most qualified to be your babysitter! I am going on to 20 years old and am currently taking college courses for Early Childhood Education. I know that I am kind, compassionate, caring, dependable, and charismatic! I’ve grown to love babysitting, and even house cleaning! I provide services such as babysitting, grocery shopping, house cleaning, cooking, transportation, and more! I am caring for children, as well as pets! Despite my age, i’ve grown up with always having younger siblings. With me being the oldest, i’ve always looked after them. I can care for children of all ages!! My siblings range from 1 years old, to 13, being the oldest one I look after. As well as being able to care for children of different ages, I can also care for children who have special needs. I have experience with one sibling who is autistic, as well as another sibling who is late to talking. I know that talking is ideal for most, but I can understand children by their actions, even if they can’t put what they want into words.

I am a very hard worker. I can clean, cook, teach, and etc. I am a very happy person in general and being around kids puts me in a good mood. Having a job caring and loving on kids is a dream job to me. I have a license. I don’t have a car yet but i can get there back and forth. I have some money in savings i will be getting a car soon. I like to create a relationship with the people are work with. Or the people I take care of. I am a big person when it comes to other people’s feelings and playing fair and nice. I am christian. I also grew up with a brother that has autism and seizers. So I do know CPR and this made me more cautious and safe around kids and others in general. I hope this information helps and we can get to meet soon!

"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)."
