Booked by 1 family in Brooklyn, NY

Hello! My name is Christine . I have over 15 years of experience providing compassionate, reliable care to individuals ranging from newborns to seniors. My passion for helping others started early, and over the years I’ve worked with families, children, and elderly clients in both home and clinical settings. I’m a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), Patient Care Technician (PCT), and Licensed Medical Assistant (MA), and I’m also CPR/First Aid certified. My background in healthcare has given me strong skills in patient safety, organization, and effective communication. I’m confident in handling medical needs, assisting with daily routines, and creating a nurturing environment where everyone feels supported and valued. When caring for children, I love engaging them in creative and educational activities that promote growth, independence, and fun. For seniors, I provide kind companionship, assistance with personal care, and encouragement to stay active and positive. I’m dependable, patient, and dedicated to treating every family I work with as if they were my own. My schedule is open and flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your family’s specific needs. I am a member of the Carol Gardens nanny association and completed the necessary trainings. My experience and knowledge stems from the BoCoCa and surrounding neighborhoods.

Ashley $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone, I’m Ashley! Caring for kids has always been a natural part of my life. As the oldest sibling, I’ve been the go-to person in my family for years, especially when parents are traveling and need someone dependable to hold down the fort. Beyond my family, I’ve babysat friends' kids, worked with children through my church’s praise dance group, and I regularly do kids' hair. These experiences have taught me a lot about being patient and making sure kids feel comfortable. I’m very big on safety and being aware of my surroundings, so my top priority is always making sure your home is secure and the kids are well-protected. I’m also a dog mom to a Pomchi! I'm great with small dogs and comfortable with other pets too, as long as they are friendly with new people. I truly understand the trust it takes to leave your children with someone new, so I’m more than happy to do a quick phone call or Zoom meeting so we can get to know each other first. It helps me feel more connected to the families I work with and ensures everyone feels safe and comfortable! I’m reliable, I show up on time, and I love keeping kids engaged and well-cared for. I’m also happy to help with hair or any light tasks you might need.

"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)."
