Hi families! I’m Ann-Lyz, I’m new this platform and eager to get started . I’m currently majoring in early childhood development. I love reading and sports and spending time outside. I have three years of experience in child care in many roles, including a little league soccer coach, camp counselor, and personal babysitter. I have experience with babies from five months up to 14 years old. I love teaching kids while creating a fun and safe environment. When babysitting, I prioritize an active and engaging day. Whether that be dance parties, park visits, playing board games, doing arts and crafts, tummy time, or practicing a new language. I have my own reliable transportation and am open to light housework/pet care. Message me with any questions; I’m eager to hear from you! Looking forward to providing an excellent time for your little ones! Currently looking for a full time permanent position

Awesome sitter!! Ann-Lyz was responsive, responsible, and so caring for my two little ones. Showed such a calm demeanor and readiness to play and engage with indoor play, outdoor play, and feeding them dinner to bedtime. My 6 yr old is usually a bit skeptical but took to Ann-Lyz right away, and my 8 yr old said she loved playing with Ann-Lyz. We will definitely be asking Ann-Lyz to come back and sit for us! They had such a wonderful time. Highly recommend.

I have extensive childcare experience, having worked with multiple families and taken child development courses in high school. I also volunteered at a local daycare, which strengthened my ability to engage with children in a structured environment. Patience, communication, and empathy are at the core of my caregiving style. I'm naturally nurturing and always strive to create a warm, supportive environment. Beyond childcare, I am highly responsible and organized-I've successfully run my own business since high school, refining my time management and multitasking skills. I am also CPR-certified and prepared to handle emergencies with confidence. Additionally, I'm comfortable assisting with household tasks such as cleaning, cooking, and helping with homework. My goal is to provide excellent care while making daily life easier for the family. I'd love the opportunity to bring my skills and dedication to your home!

"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)."
