Hi families! My name is Briasia. I LOVE the color pink and I like to do art activities! I am a dedicated, energetic, and caring childcare professional with experience working with children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I currently work at Beanstalk Academy, where I care for children ages 1–12 and help support their growth, learning, and development every day. I have also worked in a school setting with kindergarten students in an after-school program and have experience as a nanny through Care.com. These experiences have allowed me to develop strong skills in creating engaging activities, building positive relationships with children, and providing a safe, nurturing environment where they can thrive. I have extensive experience with infants, toddler care, and potty training, and I truly enjoy helping children reach important milestones while making learning fun and exciting. Whether it's arts and crafts, outdoor play, reading stories, educational activities, or simply being a supportive and dependable caregiver, I love finding ways to keep children happy, engaged, and growing. I am currently pursuing a degree in Sociology and will be graduating next year. After graduation, I plan to continue my education by earning my Master's degree in school counseling. I'm open to working with families on an occasional basis until I find a family I can work with long-term. I look forward to connecting with families!

Briasia was great! She was on time, friendly, and very professional. My child warmed up to her quickly and really enjoyed spending time with her. She has such a bubbly, positive personality and made us all feel comfortable right away. I felt confident knowing my child was in good hands and would definitely recommend her to other families looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

"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)."
