I hope all is well with you and your families. Over the years, it has been a great joy to be a source of relief and comfort for dozens of families worldwide, supporting their childcare, household management, and senior care needs. Like many of us, I started nannying during college. My undergraduate degree in Legal Research, combined with my interest in International Business, gave me the opportunity to study in New York, South Korea, Egypt, and Italy. My cultural adaptability, patience, and reliability have allowed families to entrust me with the care of their most precious loved ones. After college, I dedicated my time and expertise to supporting families with long-term needs. I have experience with infants to school-age children, including those with special needs or behavioral challenges. I am familiar with rotational schedules and flying to destinations on a rotation basis. I have accompanied families on holidays and served as a valuable extension of their comprehensive needs, especially for high-net-worth individuals. Regarding my demeanor, I am lighthearted and love to laugh. I remain calm in stressful situations and am well-equipped to handle the unexpected. I love learning and am never too proud to admit when I am wrong. My superpower is learning quickly. Outside of my professional life, I am quite adventurous. I love trying new things, whether it’s a new sport, restaurant, or activity. I enjoy walking long distances, watching and reviewing films, and, of course, my love for travel remains strong.

“Kiyonah has been a reliable and good babysitter for our child. She is punctual, follows instructions carefully, and engages the child with patience and creativity. We appreciate her calm and attentive approach, and our child was happy and well-cared-for in her presence. We confidently recommend her to any family.”

Hey everybody! Im Rose! Recently just moved back to New York after having lived in Chicago. I'm currently studying for my masters in social work at Hunter. I have had around 7 years of experience babysitting, and I also have a two year old niece who I've taken care of a lot. I have also spent two years working as a paraprofessional in a high school and then a third grade classroom, working with students with disabilities. I provided behavioral, academic and emotional support to my students and also assisted with classroom management. I have had experience with children from all different ages and backgrounds, and I approach each child as an individual and cater to them in whichever unique way is beneficial to them. I love working with children and embracing their curiosity and individuality. I’m playful, patient, and passionate about creating a nurturing environment that supports children’s development, wellbeing, and confidence. I speak some Spanish as well, because I took a gap year traveling in Latin America. I'd love to meet you, and get to know your children! :)

"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)."
