Sasha 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m a nurturing, dependable nanny with 14+ years of childcare experience in the Ventura, Californian area. I’m currently in the process of relocating back to the DC Metro area to be close to family. Start date is flexible-and start date is tentatively for mid-October A bit about me: I love supporting children’s growth through age-appropriate activities like reading, music, outdoor play, arts and crafts, and hands-on learning. My approach is warm, engaging, and focused on creating a safe environment where children can thrive. I enjoy using everyday moments as opportunities for learning while building positive, trusting relationships with each child and family. I have some experience with newborns and extensive experience with infants and toddlers, as well as experience with school-age children. I’m fluent in Spanish, love animals, and can assist with light housekeeping, children’s meals, transportation to school and activities, and light errands. Being a nanny is incredibly rewarding to me, and I’m passionate about helping children learn, grow, and feel supported every day.

“We can’t recommend Sasha enough. She was with our family for 2.5 years and was always dependable, professional, warm, and easy to be around. She built such a special relationship with our daughter and truly knew and loved her. Sasha is a great communicator, super trustworthy, consistent, calm, and just has a really laid-back, positive presence. She brought lots of experience and thoughtful recommendations while always respecting our family’s style and choices. She’s genuinely just super cool, and any family would be lucky to have her.”

"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)."
