I am a compassionate and reliable caregiver with a strong background in working with children of all ages especially infants and toddlers. My experience includes roles as a personal babysitter for many urban sitter families, aftercare worker, and camp coach, where I developed a passion for creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments for children. I am CPR-certified until June 2026, ensuring that I can respond promptly and effectively in emergencies. Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Health Science at Howard University, I bring a detail-oriented mindset to my caregiving approach, ensuring that every child receives personalized attention. I also have obtained my certification in Medical Assisting. My academic and extracurricular activities, such as mentoring with Ballet and Books and serving as the HUNAACP Membership Committee Chair, have further enhanced my leadership, organizational, and interpersonal skills. I am fluent in English and speak proficiently in Spanish and ASL, allowing me to communicate effectively with diverse families. My talents include planning age-appropriate activities, assisting with homework, promoting positive behaviors, and maintaining a structured yet fun household routine. Beyond childcare, I am skilled in household management tasks such as meal preparation, light cleaning, and running errands. Families can trust me to provide a supportive and positive environment that fosters children's growth and well-being. With a caring personality, strong work ethic, and dedication to excellence, I aim to exceed expectations in every aspect of caregiving.

Professional and a great vibe! Highly recommend.

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. I’m comfortable supporting seniors with meals, companionship, transportation, and daily tasks. I can cook, clean, organize, and run errands. 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!

"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."

"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)."
