Booked by 1 family in Cooksville, MD

Hi! I'm an experienced nanny and mom with four years of caring for one wonderful family. I cared for one child from infancy until age 2 and their older sibling from age 1 until age 5. That experience taught me how to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. As a mom, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I'm dependable, patient, communicative, and genuinely enjoy building strong relationships with both children and parents. I love joining in whatever kids enjoy—playing outside, imaginative play, dress-up, games, crafts, reading stories, baking, or just being silly together! My goal is to keep children happy, engaged, and safe while supporting their development and routines. I'm also an experienced dog sitter and animal lover, so I'm always happy to care for family pets, too. I enjoy cooking and baking, and friends describe me as kind, empathetic, and energetic. I'd love the opportunity to provide your family with dependable, nurturing care and look forward to meeting you!

Grace was absolutely wonderful with my daughter! She can get a little anxious when I go out but she immediately made her feel comfortable and engaged. They had such a great time together that when I got home, my daughter actually told me I should go out more often so she could spend more time with Grace! So cute, I highly recommend her to other families.

Caring for children has always felt natural to me it’s something that truly fills my heart. I love creating moments where kids can laugh, learn, and just be themselves. Whether we’re playing outside, doing something creative, or winding down with a story or a board game, I try to make every interaction meaningful and fun. I like keeping open communication with parents and making sure everyone feels comfortable and connected. I’m also happy to lend a hand around the house, help with meals, or supervise swimming when needed. Being part of a child’s growth and helping them feel safe and supported is what brings me the most joy.

"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."

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)."
