Wood-Adrinaëlle $20 per hour for 1 child

I like working with kids because I enjoy watching them learn and grow. Every day is different, and it's rewarding to see how even small moments can make a big difference in their development and Working with children is fulfilling because it allows me to use patience, creativity, and empathy everyday I'm looking for a job because I want to keep growing my skills and take on new responsibilities in a supportive environment . I started working with kids when I was 15 years old on my 10 grade babysitting for family and neighbors . In my spare time I enjoy reading, drawing, and staying active by going for walks or playing sport one thing you should know about is that I'm good at communicating with both kids and parents, making sure everyone feels heard and understood dependable and take their child's safety and well-being very serious my skills include stay calm and patient, even when kids are upset or challenging, which helps them feel safe and supported.

"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)."
