Imani $33 per hour for 1 child

I have over 13 years of hands-on childcare experience, from working as a lead infant teacher in a daycare, to nannying for families, and most recently running my own in-home daycare for infants through age 3. Over the years, I’ve built a strong foundation in early childhood development and know the importance of helping little ones hit every milestone—whether it’s tummy time, rolling over, fine motor skills, or language and cognitive growth. What sets me apart is that I view my role as more than just a nanny—I see myself as a teacher and partner in your child’s development. I love creating opportunities for learning through play, reading, and hands-on activities that not only keep children engaged, but also support their growth socially, emotionally, and academically. I’m also very outgoing and adaptable, and I make it a priority to truly cater to the parents’ needs. I understand how important communication, consistency, and trust are in this role, and I strive to make sure families feel supported in every way. Beyond childcare, I’m skilled in light housekeeping, laundry, and meal preparation, which helps the household run smoothly day to day. I am CPR/First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, and have my own reliable transportation. Families I’ve worked with often describe me as nurturing, reliable, and patient, but also energetic and fun—someone who brings positivity into the home while maintaining structure. Caregiving isn’t just a career for me, it’s a calling. I’m passionate about guiding children, supporting families, and creating a safe, loving, and enriching environment where little ones can thrive.

"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)."
