Booked by 1 family in New York, NY

Hi! I'm Emma. My journey into caregiving started with babysitting my twin sisters—and I haven’t looked back since! Over the years, I’ve had the chance to care for kids of all ages, and I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for them to grow and thrive. I’m hands-on and love getting kids involved in creative activities, learning games, and anything that sparks their imagination. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing playtime, or just being a calm, steady presence, I bring patience and positivity to every job. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light household tasks like cooking, tidying up, and running errands. I also have experience caring for seniors and am comfortable offering companionship, preparing meals, and supporting daily routines. I’m also pet friendly!

"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."

"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)."
