Hi! My name is Akillah! I am a vocalist and artist. I've been in New York on and off for over 9 years. I was previously a Playdate Manager at Project Playdate and I have worked with dozens of families throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan. If hired, there is sure to be plenty of exploring, and creating and there will definitely be lots and lots of singing. I am also very active and know the basics of most sports (I can and will keep up!). My goal as a sitter is to assist parents by providing a safe and loving environment for their children to give them peace of mind from day to day. I give priority to families who are tolerant and great communicators! I provide sliding-scale services based on needs on a case-by-case basis.

Great communication and my 7 month old baby seemed to really like Akillah!

"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)."
