Hello Families 🫶🏾 😊 A little bit about me, I am a mother to my phenomenal 4 year old daughter! I’m also the eldest daughter of 14 Siblings. I’ve been in the childcare field for 16 years. I first started as a babysitter then gained experience and knowledge throughout the years transitioning into a nanny. More recently I have taken on positions doing House-Management. I’m hoping to find roles like this. A few of my MANY hobbies include trail walks, reading, solving puzzles, DIY projects, gardening, traveling and trying new things. I would consider myself to be very outdoorsy. I love to find new activities to do everyday such as neighborhood walks, parks, indoor play places, museums, farms, zoos,etc. I believe learning/discovery happens best outside the home. Out of home activities help promote appropriate social interactions amongst people, animals and the environment. ☀️ Whenever indoors with children I turn my focus on learning, development skills, imagination play, crafts & mind stimulation depending on their age group. For older children I focus on life skills such a cleaning habits, preparing simple meals , engaging in hobbies , social knowledge and more!✏️ I am a strong believer in speaking to children as human beings. I respect & towards compassion towards their feelings, even the big ones. This allows them to feel heard & know that what they feel and say matters. These are all ideas & concepts that I would love to bring to a future family 💜 I am available for House-Manager & personal assistant positions including task such as: booking appts & travel. Organizing events, updating calendars, meal prep, house cleaning, decluttering and organizing, transportation, home/business shopping & so much more please reach out to me to discuss this pay scale! I can’t wait to hear from you 🤗 ⭐️ 16 years of experience (all ages/abilities) ⭐️Able to provide transportation needs ⭐️Comfortable with most pets ⭐️Food prep/cooking, cleaning experience ⭐️CPR/First Aid experience ⭐️ Non smoker/drinker ⭐️Able to provide clean background/reviews and references ⭐️willing to travel 25+ miles ⭐️Experienced with nanny-shares/travel care/overnight care/event childcare

She was wonderful. We came back to kids sleeping peacefully and a living room cleaned up from all toys and dinner. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
