Hey I’m Martina, I can’t wait to help out your family! I am a first born girl with 3 siblings. I grew up in an extended family, with cousins, nieces and nephews who I took care of as well. One of my nephews was non-verbal growing up, so I have experience in that field as I took care of him. My love for kids inspired me to work in a daycare for 3 years until I had to join full-time college and instead resorted to babysitting gigs. In the past year, I was babysitting for those I knew, but would like to step out there and help out new people. I love introducing children to new concepts and ideas of art, language, social and emotional skills all through open ended play. I love watching children learn and discover through play. I love to clean and cook, so I would love to help out with household services if needed. I have experience with interacting with people from different backgrounds and cultures, so that makes me easily get along with anyone. My friends call me loyal and trustworthy. I am a problem solver, I have great vibes and most importantly, kids love me too and love interacting with me. I am also hygienic and health conscious. I hope to hear from you soon and help to support your family with care.

Martina was very professional, kind and interactive with my son! She took initiative to ask great questions, maintain my infant’s routine and keep him engaged. Her calm and confident demeanor was reassuring as a parent. I would definitely hire Martina again and look forward to having her support in the near future!

My name is Ashley, and I’m 34 years old. I have five years of experience working at a daycare, where I cared for children of all ages. Even before that, my passion for childcare began in my teenage years—I regularly babysat for neighbors, my mom’s friends, and of course, my own younger siblings. Coming from a big family, I naturally took on the role of caregiver, which sparked my love for working with children.

"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)."
