Christine $24 per hour for 1 child

I'm a calm, reliable caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping children feel safe, supported, and confident. Growing up as the oldest of five, I naturally stepped into a caregiving role early on, which taught me responsibility, patience, and leadership. I also have over two years of experience caring for children ages 2months - 11 year olds I'm currently a Computer Information Systems (CIS) major, so I'm organized, detail-oriented, and great at managing routines. I enjoy encouraging kids through active play, games, and learning-based activities, while still maintaining clear boundaries and household expectations. I value clear communication with parents and provide regular updates in whatever way you prefer.r

"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)."
