Booked by 1 family in Jamaica, NY

I began working with children from the beginning of High School. I began volunteering for 2 years in the nursery my school owned. I babysat children and their pets for family and friends throughout college. Then I began working as a family assistant/nanny/housekeeper for various domestic agencies in NYC for HNW and UHNW families (Ultra high net worth) throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan. I currently specialize in Childcare (newborn-high school aged) housekeeping, House management, Pet care (I'm a serious animal lover!), and senior companionship.

Hi! I'm a 22-year-old college student from Queens, New York with a passion for working with kids. I naturally connect with children and love creating fun, engaging experiences for them! I originally studied Early Childhood Education to become a first-grade teacher, but I'm now exploring a career in pediatric nursing because I truly enjoy caring for children. I have hands-on experience caring for my younger siblings who are now middle schoolers. Dealing with them has taught me patience, responsibility, and creativity in keeping kids entertained and happy. What I Offer: 1. Fun and engaging activities 2. Homework help 3. Safe and responsible care 4. A warm, bubbly personality that kids love 5. Experience with both cats and dogs (super pet-friendly!) I would love the opportunity to babysit for your family. Feel free to reach out! I can't wait to meet you and your little ones!

I’m a loving, caring and patient person with 2 years of experience working with children I’ve also cared for many kids in my own family, so being around little ones comes naturally to me I have experience with autistic children and always do my best to make them feel safe understood, and happy. I truly enjoy spending time with kids playing, helping with routines, and giving lots of love and attention. Children bring me joy and I always treat them like family

"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."

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)."

Eric D., dad of two
