Hi, I’m Ayanna! I’m a caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children and pets. I’ve had the privilege of supporting families by caring for children ranging in age from newborns to teenagers (up to age 14), adapting my approach to meet each child’s unique developmental needs. My background includes everything from infant care and sleep routines to homework help, creative play, and emotional support. I have a bachelor's in Psychology and I’m currently pursuing a Master's in education. I am also trained and certified by the American Red Cross in CPR, First Aid, and Advanced Child Care—ensuring that safety and preparedness are always a priority in my care. In addition to working with children, I have extensive experience caring for pets, including dogs, cats, and other small animals. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I bring the same level of attentiveness and warmth to animal care as I do to childcare. Above all, I believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can thrive and families feel supported.

I am a caring and reliable caregiver with hands-on experience working with infants and young children. I currently work as an Infant Assistant Teacher and I am also a mother, which has strengthened my patience, organization, and nurturing skills. I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where children can grow and feel secure. I am attentive to routines, feeding, naps, and developmental activities, and I always prioritize children’s safety and well-being.

Ms. Lafrance is a responsible young woman who is dedicated to her work. She is also passionate about children. She takes care of all my children's needs. I'm sure she was born for this job because she treats the children with love.

Rose $30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Rose, very experienced care giver, been Elderly and Babies my favorite people in this world. I've cared for Elderlies,bed bound people, hospice care and disabled, for many years now. But every time someone passes away,my heart felt like doing something else going forth, something happy for a change... For the past year I decided to try to change carrier, and since ,babies and Toddlers are my another passion,I wanted to be a Nanny , besides it would help me be part of someone's growing up process as opposed to the end of life, and this thought really put a smile on my face. I'm currently working for a family in Walpole, caring for an infant for 4 months now, but unfortunately they've been forced to let me go , due to the mother decided to become a stay a home Mom after been laid off from work . They are willing to give glowing references upon request, I have a 3 month review available already in a different care site. My plan is to become a new born specialist as soon as I can afford to pay for the training. Right now I can say that I've got a lot experience caring for this baby since he was 10 week old. Feeding, bottles cleaning, changing diapers ,nap schedule inforcement, play time, singing along, tummy time, and much more... I will be looking to work not too far from the Town of Walpole. Thank you for the consideration! 🌹 Rose B.

"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)."
