Lily $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! A little bit about me: I moved to the Philadelphia area six years ago from Seattle, and spent the three years working in a trauma-informed, strengths-based GED and job training program for 14-21-year-olds. After that, I worked as a nanny for about 4 months before transitioning to a full time role as a community organizer. Before that, while studying at Gonzaga University, I worked for three summers as an overnight YMCA camp counselor, followed by 2 summers as the assistant director for a YMCA day camp. Throughout my time in high school and college, I babysat and tutored regularly, ranging in age from 2 months to 13 years. After leaving my most recent job (on good terms), I'm looking to go back to my roots in childcare. I love being with kids outdoors or doing crafts, talking with them about their days, reading, and helping with homework. I believe deeply in the importance of safe, loving, and supportive environments for babies and kids.

"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."

"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)."
