Christina Leilani $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m a warm, responsible, and creative caregiver with extensive nanny experience and a deep passion for working with children. I’ve had the joy of caring for many children and have built lasting bonds with several wonderful families, including two during my time in New York City. In both roles, I not only supported the children’s daily routines and development but also prepared home-cooked meals regularly, helping create a nurturing and nourishing environment. Beyond nannying, I bring a strong foundation in education and child development. I graduated from Chapman University with a degree in Theatre and minors in Psychology and Disability Studies. My experience includes roles as a site director for a musical theatre summer camp with Kid Stock Inc., an ESL teacher at Sylvan Learning Center, and a high school AP Psychology teacher at Uncommon Schools. I also interned in the pediatric speech pathology department at Tripler Army Medical Center, deepening my understanding of childhood communication and development. I truly believe that being part of a child’s journey is one of the most meaningful and rewarding roles a person can have. I would be honored to be a part of your family’s life! I’m a writer who creates poetry and plays, and one of my favorite things to do with children is to create worlds together, whether that’s through storytelling, imaginative play, or even making our own books or puppet shows. I love watching a child’s imagination take the lead and supporting their ideas with prompts, costumes, drawings, or props.

My name is Mara. I am a mother of four boys, ages 33, 27, 25, and 16, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I truly enjoy being around children and helping them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I have many years of experience caring for children. From 2006 to 2016, I cared for a little girl in Freeport, Maine, from the time she was a baby until she turned 10. During the COVID-19 period, I helped a family in New York with their two children. Most recently, I worked with a family in Long Island City from 2022 until July 2026, when they relocated. I am a caring, patient, dependable, and trustworthy person. I treat the children I care for with the same love, attention, and patience that I give my own children. I enjoy becoming part of a family and being someone parents can feel comfortable and confident relying on.

"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)."
