Shirley $30 per hour for 1 child

I've been working in childcare since 2001, with ages from neonatal to up to 14 years old. I have a bachelor's degree in early childhood education, and have worked alongside industry leaders such as The Goddard School, Montessori, and Primrose. I've enjoyed working with families of all cultures and different languages, which has enabled me to further develop my childcare methods. I aim to stimulate their imagination, influencing them to take on tangible hands-on projects and watching their creativity flow! Painting is one of my favorite activities, alongside reading. I've found it very productive and beneficial to work with an "open door policy" to best align parents' wants and child's needs into our curriculum!

"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)."
