Kianah $25 per hour for 1 child

Nurturing children and watching them learn brings me immense joy. My five years of experience caring for children aged 0–13 have solidified my desire to positively impact young lives. I am patient, calm, and confident when it comes to enforcing household rules and maintaining routines. I enjoy engaging children in board games, puzzles, and educational activities that promote learning, creativity, and social development. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with light housekeeping related to the children, such as tidying play areas, organizing toys, preparing simple meals or snacks, washing dishes, and helping with children’s laundry to ensure a clean and comfortable environment. I value open communication and will follow your preferred method to keep you informed about your child’s day, activities, and milestones. I am comfortable caring for one or two children at a time, allowing me to give each child focused attention and care. I truly enjoy supporting families and look forward to the opportunity to care for and nurture your little one

"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)."
