Evelyn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My name is Evelyn, and I’ve worked in a daycare since 2020 with older infants. I have an Associate’s degree in Early Childhood Education and am currently working toward my Bachelor’s. I’m patient, caring, and reliable, and I love helping children learn and grow in safe, fun environments. I’m a warm and nurturing caregiver who truly enjoys building strong bonds with children and supporting their growth through play, learning, and routine. My background in early education allows me to create safe, engaging, and age-appropriate environments where little ones can thrive. In addition to my childcare experience, I bring responsibility, reliability, and strong communication skills, which help me work well not only with children but also with families. Along with childcare, I can also lend a hand with light household tasks and pet care. Being bilingual helps me connect with diverse families, and my background ensures I provide both nurturing care 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."

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)."
