Victoria 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Elgin, TX

Hi! My name is Victoria, and caring for children has always been a part of my life. I have over 10 years of experience working at a family-owned, in-home daycare, along with years of babysitting for multiple families I still keep in touch with today. I’m also a loving mother of two, which has strengthened my patience, compassion, and understanding of each child’s needs. I volunteered with Vacation Bible School during high school and most recently at the A+ Federal Credit Union Kids Financial Camp (Summer 2025). I am CPR and First Aid certified and bring a calm, gentle, yet energetic approach to childcare. In addition to childcare, I worked professionally for a cleaning company for one year and have experience with pet sitting and house sitting, making me comfortable caring for homes as well as children. Every babysitting job includes light housework to help support busy families. I’m looking for a family where I can build trust and consistency while providing dependable, nurturing care.

“yes, I will definitely hire Victoria again. My kids loved hanging out with her.”

Booked by 1 family in Elgin, TX

I’ve been babysitting since summer 2024 and have also worked in structured childcare settings, including as a Pre-K teacher and substitute teacher. I’ve supervised children, planned activities, and helped with daily routines like meals, playtime, and learning. I’ve also worked in environments like Urban Air, where I managed groups of kids and focused heavily on safety. These experiences helped me become patient, attentive, and confident working with different ages and personalities. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, very reliable, and I focus on creating a safe and positive environment where kids feel comfortable.

"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."

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)."
