I am an early childhood educator with experience caring for and supporting young children in a safe, loving, and structured environment. I specialize in working with children from 4 months to 12 years old, using play-based and Montessori-inspired activities to encourage learning, independence, and emotional development. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. I enjoy creating meaningful routines, engaging activities, and calm spaces where children feel secure, confident, and happy. I also support families with daily routines, light household tasks related to childcare, and clear communication to ensure trust and peace of mind.

Would highly recommend. She did a great job watching my 2 1/2 year old.

"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)."
