At the moment I am a full time nanny of a happy toddler (I started with them when she was 5 months) I am looking for occasional/weekends/evening jobs.

I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Being that I come from a large family, I naturally stepped into the role of a caregiver early on. Beyond that, I’ve actively cared for my nieces and nephews, building a strong foundation in child care. My experience has taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of creating a safe, nurturing environment for children to thrive. Whether it’s assisting with homework, planning engaging activities, preparing meals, or maintaining household routines, I take pride in ensuring kids feel supported and valued. I’m also skilled at balancing structure with fun, understanding the unique needs of children at different developmental stages. From soothing infants to mentoring teens, I’ve learned to tailor my approach to each child’s personality and needs. I have a natural ability to connect with people of all ages, which extends to seniors and even pets, having provided companionship and assistance for older family members and cared for household pets. My reliability, strong work ethic, and passion for caregiving make me a great fit for any family seeking a dependable and compassionate helper.

"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."

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)."
