Hi! My name is Bator and I attended the University of Maryland. I offer child care, senior care, and household services. I’m trilingual and love teaching kids French through simple lessons, games, and conversation. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-age children and can help with homework, crafts, meal prep, school pickups, and routines. I am also comfortable with pets.

Families describe me as patient, reliable, and caring, and I love creating a warm and safe environment.

Bator was awesome. Connected with our daughter right away. Did activities with her. Kept to the bedtime schedule and sent updates. Would definitely use again!

Hello! I’m Stephanie. I have over 14 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. I am CPR and First Aid certified. Most of my recent experience has been focused on infant care and the toddler years, including successful potty training. I love keeping kids active and creative through reading books to spark imagination, outdoor exploration, fun crafts, and hands-on educational play. I believe in patient, positive communication and always prioritize ensuring a safe, nurturing environment. I look forward to discussing how I can support your family’s needs!

We have had an excellent experience with this babysitter and highly recommend her to any family looking for someone dependable, knowledgeable, and confident with children. She is incredibly reliable, always arriving on time and following through on every commitment. One of her greatest strengths is behavior management. She sets clear expectations, remains calm under pressure, and is firm yet fair, creating an environment where children feel secure and understand boundaries. She is also an outstanding tutor who explains concepts clearly, adapts to our child's learning style, and encourages independent thinking. She truly cares about helping children succeed while maintaining a structured, positive atmosphere. We trust her completely and appreciate the professionalism, patience, and dedication she brings every time she works with our family.

"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)."
