Booked by 4 families in Shelter Island, NY

Hi! I’m Alexandria, I’m 21 years old going to be an upcoming senior majoring in Business and Theater arts with a Spanish minor. I am a fun, responsible, and caring babysitter with over 5 years of experience. My caregiving experience started early through helping with my mother’s licensed daycare, where I assisted with children from infancy to elementary age. Along with caring for my younger siblings and my newly born nephew, I’ve developed strong skills in multitasking, creating engaging activities, such as playing with toys, bringing out their creative side with arts and craft and also handling a range of child needs. I’m CPR/AED/First Aid certified for both children and adults. I can cook, clean, drive, and I’m conversational in Spanish making me a flexible and dependable caregiver. I love creating a positive, safe, and enriching environment for kids whether that’s helping with homework, planning activities, or reading bedtime stories. I’m committed to making each family feel supported, respected and safe leaving their children with me. In my free time I like to read, play video/pc games, go shopping, explore new places, do self-care, dance, cook/bake, workout and make videos here and there. I am very outgoing and enjoy being outdoors. I’m excited to get to know your little ones and you as well! Feel free to reach out!

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

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)."
