Saron $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Saron, a full-time college student majoring in elementary education . I love working with kids because I'm patient and enthusiastic. I believe in their intelligence and aim to teach them good habits and help them grow, even when they're young. It warms my heart to see their excitement when they see me, and the rewards of this job are priceless. I've been involved with children for most of my life, from mentoring at church to regular babysitting, and currently as an elementary school tutor. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, and running. Importantly, I take my responsibility as a caregiver seriously, having cared for children since I was 11. My skills include patience, effective communication, physical and mental stamina, and reliability. I'm excited to create a positive and nurturing environment for your 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."

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)."
