Booked by 2 families in Capitol Heights, MD

Hello! My name is Gabi and I'm an actor/singer who recently moved to Hyattsville by way of LA. I am offering child care, pet care and household care. I have been caregiving for over 15 years and I love working with all ages -- from teaching them how to crawl to introducing them to new music. Okay, they usually teach me, but I always try to make sure they know the classics first! My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, light housework, organizing and meal prep. And as an improvisor, there ain't nothing those kids can say that I won't Yes, And. I'm also more than happy to help with household tasks and management when the kiddos are napping or off to school. Its always an extra treat when there are pets in the house I can walk or snuggle or play with! Hope to work with you soon <3

"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)."
