Booked by 1 family in Edgewater, NJ

Hello! I’m a dedicated, nurturing, and highly experienced childcare provider with over a decade of experience in children’s education and caregiving. My background combines classroom teaching, arts education, and at-home family care. I have a BFA and have spent over a decade working professionally on Broadway, which deeply informs my creativity, playfulness, discipline, and ability to meaningfully engage with children at their level. I have experience working with children across a wide range of ages, from 5 months to early teen years. I come from a large, close-knit family in Ohio and played an active role in helping raise my nieces and nephews, which shaped my natural caregiving instincts from an early age. My hobbies I would love to share with your children are tennis, chess, reading, writing and singing. Course Certifications • Substitute Teacher (Pre-K - 12th Grade) • School Safety & Child Review • Violence Prevention • DASA (Dignity for All Students Act) • Autism Workshop

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kimber! We have no idea how we (and our now 18 month old son) would have managed without her. Dependable and honest, Kimber was always on time, energetic creative and extremely responsible. She never ran out of ideas on how to keep our son entertained. She was able to address his needs (and tantrums!) with grace, calm and kindness. Will absolutely hire her again!

I’m an experienced sitter based in the NYC, known for being calm, dependable, and great with evening and bedtime routines. I’ve worked with children of all ages and am especially comfortable with date nights, after-school care, homework help, and settling kids down for the night. Parents often tell me they appreciate my reliability, clear communication, and low-stress presence. Happy to help with light tidying related to the kids, reading, quiet play, and maintaining routines while you’re out. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and have excellent references. Available evenings, weekends, and occasional last-minute requests.

"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)."
