Riley $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Riley, and I am a dedicated, responsible, and enthusiastic caregiver who loves creating positive experiences for children and families. I graduated from Monmouth University in 2025 with a degree in education and hold certifications in Elementary Education (K–6), Teacher of Students with Disabilities (TOSD), and Preschool through Grade 3 (P–3). As an elementary educator, I have extensive experience working with children of diverse ages and abilities, helping them learn, grow, and feel supported in a safe, nurturing environment. My background in education has strengthened my patience, communication skills, creativity, and ability to keep children engaged through fun, age-appropriate activities. Families describe me as dependable, caring, energetic, and organized. I enjoy building meaningful connections with children while maintaining routines and ensuring their safety and well-being. Whether it's helping with homework, planning creative activities, playing games, reading stories, or simply being a positive role model, I strive to make every child feel comfortable, valued, and excited to spend time together. In addition to my experience with children, I am comfortable assisting with light household tasks, meal preparation, and helping keep spaces tidy. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, and I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and professional. I look forward to supporting families and creating a fun, safe, and caring environment for every child in my care!

"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)."
