Hello! I am TG, an international development practitioner by trade. I am a mother to an 8-year-old beautiful girl. After many years of international work, I am taking time off from my day job to go back to grad school and to enjoy the little things in life. One of the things I enjoy caring for kids. It is a great bonus that I can do that while helping pay my bills. I hope you reach out to me for a chat about your kid/s and their childcare needs. Thanks, TG

Fernanda $20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Fernanda, and I have two years of experience caring for children, providing them with a safe, loving, and patient environment. I consider myself a responsible, attentive, and committed person who focuses on children’s well-being and development, supporting their daily routines, playtime, and healthy habits. I am also willing to care for pets, as I truly love animals and have personal experience—I currently have a cat, which has taught me the importance of proper care, attention, and affection. I adapt easily to each family’s needs and always strive to create a sense of trust and peace of mind.

"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)."
