Booked by 2 families in Saint Paul, MN

I grew up in Minneapolis, MN, one of the eldest among my 9 siblings. It meant a lot of responsibilities early on. After graduating from Washburn, I continued my studies at MCTC, focusing on social work and psychology. I now go to the U Of M to finish my studies . I'm passionate about working with kids and strongly believe in starting mental health awareness early. Also CPR trained!

Sayma was fantastic with my two girls. She went above & beyond by taking them swimming at the pool with another family who live in the same apartment building. Then, she gave both girls baths right after. Great work - very professional. Josh

"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

"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)."
