Hi families! My name is Carolyn, and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and helping them grow in safe, supportive, and positive environments. I currently work at Champion Elementary in Daytona Beach in an ESE Pre-K blended classroom, where I assist students with a variety of learning and behavioral needs. But I am in New York for the summer . I was recently nominated for Paraprofessional of the Year by the Volusia Council for Exceptional Children and currently serve on the Conference Committee for the Florida Council for Exceptional Children. I am also enrolled at Daytona State College pursuing my AA degree through Volusia County’s Pathways to Teacher Program as I continue working toward becoming a certified teacher. I am coming up to NY for the summer of 2026 . I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary-aged children in both school and childcare settings. I enjoy creating engaging activities, helping with routines, supporting learning, and making children feel comfortable and cared for. Families often describe me as patient, reliable, caring, and easy to communicate with. I am CPR and First Aid certified and would love the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones! I’m also a mom of 2 I have a 3 year old daughter & a 7 month old son .

Wonderful caring caregiver. Extremely reliable. Was immediately available when my previous sitter canceled last minute on a day when i had an important meeting and watched my little one from a few months old to toddler age today. Highly recommend!

We're so happy that we connected with Dawnn to care for our 16mo old daughter while we were at a wedding. She did a fabulous job with a challenging caregiving situation: it was the first time our daughter had done bedtime without us other than one dinner out when she was 5wks old, she was in an entirely new state, was in a hotel room without a separate bedroom, and our daughter usually contact naps and nurses to sleep at bedtime. We appreciated the cute video of dinnertime, heard great things back from the lobby staff about how much fun it looked like they were having together and came home to a soundly sleeping baby. When our daughter had woken up a little after initially falling asleep and was worried that we weren't there Dawnn did a great job comforting her, figuring out what she thought might help and reaching out to us for a quick call to reassure our daughter that she could go back to bed and we'd be home soon. Thanks Dawnn! You made this evening fun and easy for us :)

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
