Labake Houston

Hello: nice to meet you! My name is Labake. I am a jovial, honest, reliable, respectful energetic hardworking, easy going, deeply empathetic and kind hearted. I am 56 but people say I look 30šŸ˜„! A mother of 4 that I personally raised myself. I had opportunity to watch and babysit children (even newborns and toddlers) and pets too. I can say boldly that I can be super excited around children and pets (dogs, cats, rabbits etc). Not to mention that I grew up with pets of my own (cats and dog). I love kids as much as I love helping people with great passion and compassion. I am well learned (a graduate) and have over 25 years of work history in the corporate sector and entrepreneurship which I believe is an advantage for serving you well to your utmost satisfaction. Despite this however, I love learning new things and quick at catching on. I love children and have assisted other children in learning from cradle to grad levels. I had equally taken care of aged ones before and can well look after yours like my very own with great patience. I cherish respect and would always give and reciprocate same. I appreciate boundaries of culture and belief system and would adhere to norms whilst working for them. I look forward to working with you soon! Thank you for this opportunity!

Nurturing young minds is my passion. My five years of experience caring for children aged 6-11 have solidified my commitment to fostering their growth and development. Previous babysitting roles sparked my desire to make a positive impact on children's lives. I am patient, calm, creative, and friendly. I communicate with parents through verbal updates at pickup, and regular texts or phone calls. I am comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am comfortable caring for one child at a time. My skills include First Aid Training, CPR Training, and Early Child Development Coursework. I am happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, and swimming supervision. I'm eager to bring my energy and experience to your family.

"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)."
