Booked by 2 families in Emerson, NJ

Hello, my name is Camila and I live in NYC , I can provide a resume and references, I am a responsible, caring, and very creative person. I have had the opportunity to care for 7 beautiful children from 4 different families, for around 3 years, which has allowed me to gain hands-on experience working with different ages and personalities. I have artistic training from the American Musical and Dramatic Academy, which really helps me connect with children through play, music, imagination, and creative activities. I love reading stories, doing arts and crafts, singing and or acting with them, and creating a fun but always safe environment. I am fluent in both Spanish and English, so I can support bilingual families or help children practice a second language in a natural way. I am patient, organized, and very attentive to children’s safety and well-being. It’s very important to me that they feel comfortable, heard, and happy while they are under my care.

“Cami worked with out fmaily care for our two boys, ages 6 and 10. She helped wth school pick ups, after school activities, meals and our daily routine. She was warm and friendly with the kids, and we wish her all the best with her next family.”

"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."

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)."
