Hello. My name is Natalia, I’m originally from Argentina. My mother language is Spanish. I’m currently a college student in Tribeca so I’m always around the city. In Argentina I graduated and worked for almost 8 years as a special education teacher. I have experience taking care of kids starting 5mo. I was an au pair for 2 years. I’m currently working as a nanny and can provide references upon request. I have a drivers license but not my own car. One of the families I work with have a dog and sometimes I take care of her, also grew up with pets (dogs and cats) and take care of them. About households tasks, I help my families with groceries shopping, doing laundry and arranging rooms.

"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
