Leticia Everett
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Leticia, and I am currently employed as a nanny with 5 years of extensive experience working with children. Throughout my career, I have held roles as a Ballet and English teacher, as well as a caregiver for children ranging from 1 to 15 years old. As a Ballet teacher, I developed customized programs tailored to different ages and skill levels, fostering discipline and artistic expression. As an English teacher, I utilized interactive methods to ensure engaging and effective learning experiences. In my role as a nanny, I provided comprehensive and secure care, organizing educational and recreational activities. My teaching experience includes children aged 3 to 12 years old, employing playful methods and games to enhance learning engagement for younger children, while integrating advanced techniques and knowledge suitable for older children. As a nanny, I have cared for children aged 1 to 15 years old, focusing on introducing new, fun, and educational games tailored to their interests and developmental stages. I take pleasure in involving children in activities such as painting, drawing, reading, arts and crafts, board games, cooking, as well as outdoor pursuits like sports, park play, and hiking. These activities are designed to stimulate cognitive, emotional, and physical development, offering a diverse and enriching experience for the children. Currently, I am dedicated to nannying teenagers and seeking remote work opportunities that align with my schedule. Pet Care I have extensive experience caring for dogs since childhood. Growing up, my parents always had dogs at home, and I loved playing with them and spending time with them. At the age of 15, I received a dog as a gift, and I took on the full responsibility of her care. I regularly walked her, bathed her, ensured she had food and water, and enjoyed playing and spending time with her. Although she remains in Brazil since my move here, I continue to oversee her diet and vaccinations from a distance. Additionally, I occasionally care for two dogs belonging to my current employers.

"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)."
