Libbie $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Libbie. I'm a full-time Jewish educator at a fantastic synagogue in the heart of Park Slope, and I'm looking for some part time summer work! As a teacher, I always say that my main goal is teaching joy. I want every child who enters my classroom to know that they belong, they are inherently worthy, that they are wanted. It's my favorite thing to see that knowledge light up a little one's smile. That philosophy carries through easily to all children under my care. Before becoming a teacher, I was a tutor and a nanny, so I'm used to the rhythms of home as well as the classroom! The most important thing to me is to make sure your kids are safe and happy. I'm also extremely musical! I'm in the process of applying to graduate school to become a cantor - I sing and play piano, flute, and guitar, and I love enchanting little ones with music! Happy to provide voice lessons as well upon request. I hope to meet you and your family soon, and provide excellent, engaging, joyous care for your little ones. All my best!

"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)."
