Mekdelawit $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mekdelawit, and I’m currently a senior at Fordham University studying Economics. I’ve been working with children since I was 12 years old and truly love what I do. I bring an energetic, easygoing, and dependable approach to every family I work with. My experience spans all age groups from newborns to pre-teens covering everything from school pick-ups and activity transportation to meal prep, homework help, and diaper changes. Alongside childcare, my background includes six years in high-touch guest relations at establishments like Little Owl and Le Coucou. That experience trained me to anticipate needs, communicate clearly, and stay calm and proactive under pressure skills that translate directly into running a smooth, well-organized household. Thanks to this background, I’m very comfortable with running errands, light housekeeping, and household management. I’m also a big animal lover! Having grown up in a multi-pet home, I am well-versed in caring for dogs, cats, reptiles (like bearded dragons), hedgehogs, betta fish, and parakeets. I’m happy to provide strong references upon request to give your family complete peace of mind. I look forward to connecting and seeing how I can best support your household!

"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)."
