Trinity 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Harvey, LA

From a young age, I’ve always been surrounded by little ones — I’m a proud middle child of 11 siblings, so caring for babies and children of all ages truly comes naturally to me. Growing up in a big family taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a calm, structured environment even on the busiest days. I have two years of professional childcare experience, in addition to a lifetime of caring for infants, toddlers, and pre-teens within my own family. I am completely comfortable caring for newborns, and I can confidently handle up to three children at a time. I am BLS, CPR, and First Aid certified, have a college degree, and I’m experienced with homework help, light cleaning, cooking kid-friendly meals, and maintaining routines. My approach is patient, warm, and nurturing, but also organized — I like to keep things running smoothly so parents come home to a peaceful environment. I enjoy planning engaging activities such as outdoor play, board games, educational games, and creative projects. I’m happy to follow your household rules and adapt to your family’s preferences. I provide clear communication, including written daily notes if you’d like, and I’m flexible with whatever method parents prefer (text updates, check-ins, etc.). I have my own car, a clean driving record, and I am comfortable with pets. Above all, my goal is to make sure your children feel safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. I would love the opportunity to support your family and become someone your children feel excited to see.

Trinity is very friendly and sweet. She watched our baby so we can enjoy being adults. Definitely will book again. Thank you so much for your help!

Hi I’m Ralph. I really enjoy working with kids and currently working at Renew Early childhood Education School as a teacher assistant. My main job is basically to assist the teacher with a smooth daily running of the class. Also taught Sunday school for over 20 years age group 4 till 12. I offer baby sitting, tutoring, cooking, errands running, cleaning and organizing services. I am a very creative individual therefore games, arts and crafts are my strength which I have found can keep children occupied for hours.

I also have some experience in caring for the elderly as I had the opportunity to care for my grandmother for 4 years who stayed with me. Cooked and cleaned for her and helped remind her of her medication at the required times also entertained and took her for walks. I am an avid organizer I can turn any disorganized room into a tranquil, clean and organized space. Give me a try I promise you are going to love me! I am a very friendly and lovable individual, well travelled from my flight attending experience where I had to take care of unaccompanied minors.

"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)."
