I have experiences taking care of mascots Taking them out, feeding them, taking care of them and giving them the necessary attention I have experience taking care of pets, including dogs and cats. I am responsible, patient, and caring. I help with feeding, walking, playing, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I always follow routines and instructions to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treating them with love and respect.

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my true passion. With six years of experience caring for up to four children, I provide a patient, creative, and calm environment for kids aged newborn through pre-teen. My background includes Early Child Development coursework, CPR Training, and First Aid Training. I am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, carpooling, and crafts. Since I am a skilled swimmer, I am fully prepared to provide attentive swimming supervision. I enjoy engaging children through board games, puzzles, and educational apps that spark learning. I maintain open communication by following your preferred method, whether through daily reports or regular updates. I am very comfortable upholding your household rules to ensure consistency. I look forward to bringing my dedication and energy to your family, helping your children grow and thrive every single day.

Great service and help. Highly recommended

"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)."
