Analese $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Analese and I am the sixth of nine children in my family, so I began babysitting at a very young age. Growing up, I babysat siblings, nieces and nephews, and family friends, with my responsibilities including childcare, pet care, transportation, tutoring and more! While attending university, I worked as a nanny and have experience working with infants and children up to the age of 15. During my last semester, I began working as a Registered Behavior Technician, gaining 1 year of experience providing ABA (applied behavioral analysis) therapy to children diagnosed with ASD (autism spectrum disorder) aged 15 months-9 years old. I am grateful for this experience and actively implement ABA techniques when working with all children. I have always loved working with children and feel I have a natural ability to meet kids at their level. I often find that I have learned from them just as much as they learn from me! I hope to work and save to eventually become a pediatric neuropsychologist.

"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)."
