Hi! I’m Scarlet, a passionate and caring nanny. I offer child care and pet care, always creating a fun and safe environment!

I’ve been working with childcare since very young, I have experience with kids at ages from newborn to 7yo, eventually caring for older kids too. Right now I have full time week job where I take care of a 15 months old boy. I have a Nurse degree back home (Brazil) and I was specializing to be a Pediatrician Nurse when I joined the Au Pair program. I'm now applying to be an a teacher for the little ones because I found that to be much more meaningful for where I see myself completely satisfied in my professional life. With this nurse background, I have immense knowledge about children's development and how to work with them in every stage of their lives, plus as a personal curiosity I was always very into Child education and parenting studies, and I've done tons of specializations to fill up my curiosity but also to put into a better-qualified position when working with kids. Also, I do have some beliefs related to child education that would be a better fit for me to work with a family with the same approach. I believe in non-violent communication, and positive psychology education, also I have some interest in the Montessori philosophy.

Prompt, reliable, friendly

"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)."
