My name is Isie and I love being a nanny and cleaning homes. Im looking for full-time, part-time and/or weekend work. My hours and days can shift so I’m available for either a set time and/or switch shifts. I have been cleaning homes and being a nanny for over 20 years. I have great references and no allergy’s to any pets. I truely enjoy helping and working with others. I have worked with autistic, special needs, and mentally challenged children, adults and seniors. I don’t drink and or smoke.

Isie has been my babysitter for the last ten years. She has cared for my three children ranging from six months to 8 years old. She baths them, prepares their meals, reads to them, takes them outside to the park, helps with homework. She is very reliable, always on time, willing to come early or stay late. She cares for my children as if they were her own. Anyone that has the opportunity to have her as a sitter will be very fortunate.

How’s it going , When it comes to raising four boys at home, The safety awareness skills you learn while mothering your own children will stay with you throughout your life. Racing my four boys taught me the stages of childhood development and what to expect at different ages. These skills are useful when working with kids at any time in the future and especially if you are planning on working with children to make living! How to entertain children With enough motherhood skills plus caring for other children, you can have child-entertaining down to a fine art. You can quickly become a master of playing, reading, singing, drawing, improvising, and having fun. Children get sick a lot (particularly when attending childcare centers), so caring for them when they are not well is something you will pick up right away. There are many tactics to know that can make a child feel more comfortable, loved, and to help them recover quicker. You can also learn how to prevent the spread of germs and stop other people from getting sick, including yourself! Helping children to understand their emotions, manage their feelings, and learn the difference between right and wrong behavior is challenging, but it is also a rewarding experience. There are many subtleties to learn and every family may have a slightly different set of disciplinary values they wish to uphold. Sometimes children are prone to tantrums. You can learn to pre-empt trigger situations, and how to plan around them. You can learn the art of distraction (very powerful) and if a tantrum does occur, you can learn how to stay calm in stressful situations while remaining firm with your principles. Child encouragement and motivation strategies! Explaining why things need to be done! Building trust, and; Leading by example. These learned strategies can be invaluable in your day-to-day when dealing with children. I hope this answers some of your questions and please to hesitate to contact me if you are willing to meet. I have excellent references available upon request. My references can attest to my dedication, reliability, and the positive impact I have had on the children I have cared for. Have a bless day.... I

We will definitely hire YOSELINA in the future.

Hello! My name is Arianna and I am currently a Freshman at Baruch College. I have been experienced in caring for children for, quite literally, all my life. I've cared for my two younger siblings, one of which who has special needs, ever since they were born. I've also cared for my nieces, nephews, and the children of close family friends. I truly enjoy working with kids because they're so lively and bring out the creative side of my personality. Since I went to high school for arts, I enjoy sitting down with kids and helping them do crafts that can be as simple as finger painting to something as complex as sewing. Whatever creativity your child wants to dapple into, I'm here to assist them and allow their imagination to run wild. I am able to work with kids of all ages and I am skilled in caring for children who are special needs due to living with my younger sister who has autism. I'd be delighted to spend time with your child and get to know them as I care for them, while keeping them safe and sound!

I’m a responsible and adaptable caregiver with extensive experience caring for children ages 1-8. My flexible personality helps me connect easily with kids of all ages. I’ve cared for multiple cats and dogs throughout my life and currently have a cat, so I’m completely comfortable with pets in the home. I understand that every child is unique, and I pride myself on adjusting my approach to meet each family’s specific needs and routines. Whether it’s engaging toddlers with creative play, helping school age children with activities, or providing reliable household support, I bring patience, enthusiasm, and a genuine love for working with both children and animals to every family I work 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

"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)."
