Amy 2 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child

I am a patient, compassionate, and dependable caregiver with experience caring for children, pets, and maintaining a clean home. I have worked with children since the age of 14 and naturally connect with them through my nurturing, calm, and attentive personality. I am currently 20 years old and expecting my own child, which has deepened my understanding of how important trust, safety, and reassurance are for parents. I also have about a year of experience working at a doggy daycare, caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I understand that pets are family too. In addition, I am reliable with household cleaning and organization and take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment. I am kind, responsible, adaptable, and truly passionate about caregiving.

“She was so kind and thoughtful. I never truly had a certain babysitter to watch my children so this was a last minute thing. She made sure everything was taken care of and my kids absolutely adored her. Even stayed a little when I returned to help me with a few things. I would definitely hire her again”

"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."

"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)."
