Hello! :) Life long career nanny here & postpartum doula- having over 15 years experience working with every age group. I have been specializing in newborns- 12 months for the past 5 years through experience and gaining credentials as a postpartum doula & infant feeding specialist. In addition, I am CPR/first aid certified, background check verified & can provide multiple professional references. I am seeking a long term commitment, open to any hours & I have my own vehicle. I have a son born in march 2025 that I would be looking to bring along with me about half the days. I have extensive experience in caring for multiples, so I am confident in being able to care for him while giving your family all the attention deserved and required :) I consider myself knowledgeable, professional and responsible but also super fun, empathetic and outgoing. I'm good with all pets. Let me know if you’re interested in chatting to learn more about each other !

Kayla is the BEST! With watching our 5 month old, Kayla was spot on with providing loving care and also emphasizing critical milestone development. From tummy time to songs, she was always engaged. While working from home, I’ve observed her in action, attention to Willow was her primary goal. I wish we could keep her full-time, but my schedule just doesn’t warrant it.

"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."

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
