Being a career nanny for the past 25 years is an impressive accomplishment. It means I have dedicated a significant portion of my life to providing exceptional care and support to children. Y My CPR certification is a crucial asset, as it demonstrates my commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of the children under my care. Having experience in both Montessori and RIE (Resources for Infant Educarers) approaches further enhances to my qualifications. Montessori emphasizes independence, hands-on learning, and respect for a child's individual development, while RIE focuses on building trust, respectful communication, and fostering a nurturing environment. My knowledge of these methodologies allows me to tailor my caregiving approach based on each child's unique needs and preferences. The fact that I have enjoyed being a nanny for such an extended period speaks volumes about my passion for this profession. Providing consistent care, nurturing relationships, and being a positive influence in children's lives require patience, empathy, and a genuine love for what I do. My years of experience undoubtedly makes me a trusted and valued caregiver in the eyes of the families I’ve worked with.

"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)."
