Hi there! I’m a 25- year-old nanny currently caring for two amazing kids, aged 3 and 4 years old. Spending time with children brings me so much joy, and I’ve dedicated much of my life to roles that involve working with kids. My childcare experience includes: • Live-in nanny for three boys (ages 7, 10, and 13), managing busy schedules and lots of driving. • Nanny for a 2-year-old girl for 6 months. • Summer camp counselor for 5 summers, creating fun and engaging activities for kids aged 4–12. • Private tutor for children (ages 7–11) for 4 years, helping with math and English. • Party princess, face painter, and kids’ yoga teacher, adding magic and creativity to events. • Big sister to my 5-year-old sibling, caring for her since birth. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and educational environment where kids can thrive. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities Besides working with kids I have a degree in architecture and have worked in this field as well.

Thank you! Sara was great!

Hello- My name is Sandra. I'm a dedicated, multilingual, and caring babysitter/nanny with a healthcare background that loves to be around children. I am also a Certified Lactation Consultant, and passionate about making the breastfeeding experience as smooth and wonderful as possible for both the parents and the baby. I moved to the U.S., a couple of years ago, to acquire the appropriate licenses needed to further my studies in the Medical field and become a Pediatrician. Having said that, I have worked with many children in clinics and hospitals abroad before and after becoming a licensed general physician in South America. I also have worked as a babysitter for an infant and as a nanny for a family of multiple kids (4 kids in total) simultaneously in NYC, so I have a great idea of what it entails. I’m also a great cook, detail-oriented, organized, and a great planner. To name a few, those are some of the reasons I say your children would be in great hands.

She was amazing with our three boys! She was kind, patient, and engaging, and they had such a great time with her. We would happily recommend her to anyone!

"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
