Theresa $25 per hour for 1 child

I have over 13 years of caregiving experience, which began when my son was diagnosed with autism. This personal journey shaped my empathy, patience, and adaptability, making me an exceptional caregiver. I am a certified Personal Care Assistant (PCA) with hands-on experience in childcare, particularly for children with special needs, ensuring their emotional, educational, and physical well-being. In addition to working with children, I am open to caregiving roles for seniors, offering companionship, assistance with daily activities, and medical care management. My diverse skill set also includes household services, such as meal preparation, cleaning, and maintaining a safe, organized living environment. I thrive on forming meaningful connections, am highly observant, and excel in creating a nurturing and structured atmosphere for those under my care, whether children, seniors, or even pets.

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

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)."
