Hi! I’m Luzma, a nanny with 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from babies to young kids. I’ve worked with different families, caring for 1 to 3 children at a time, and I absolutely love making their days fun, safe, and full of learning. I naturally weave Spanish into daily routines, so kids can pick it up while playing, singing, and exploring. My goal is always to create a happy, nurturing space where children feel loved, confident, and ready to thrive!

References upon request I work with an agency but I am looking for a position with them or independently. Thank you

Yesenia cared for our son from 14 to 19 months, and she was a wonderful nanny — caring, loving, honest, and trustworthy. She helped him explore his interests and took real pleasure in every part of his daily routine. She was a good communicator and always willing to lend a helping hand - especially at times when we needed it the most! We’re so grateful to have had her in our lives. We’re relocating to the West Coast, or we would have happily continued working with her. We recommend her without hesitation.

"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)."
