I’m an outgoing, friendly, and caring person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I bring positive energy and patience to every situation, creating a fun and safe environment where kids can feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to grow. I love engaging children through play, learning activities, and conversation, and I take pride in helping them build confidence and kindness in their everyday interactions. Parents can trust that I’m dependable, attentive, and always focused on making sure each child feels valued and cared for.

“Paris is my sister, and she absolutely loves being around children. She naturally shows those nurturing, motherly qualities that every child needs. She works wonderfully with babies and toddlers, always keeping them engaged and active — I know because my little sister is completely attached to her! Paris communicates well, is patient and accommodating, and I truly think she would be a perfect match.”

"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)."
