Zari $16 per hour for 1 child

Childhood is such a beautiful yet challenging time of our lives. And because of this, every adult around us has the opportunity to affect that for better or for worse. For me, I love being a positive influence, it makes me smile knowing that as this child grows up, I can be a happy memory for them. I grew up as an only child, so I loved babysitting as I way to fill that "Big Sister" role. My first babysitting job was at my local church in Dallas, where I assisted in the nursery on Sundays. My favorite thing of all time though is cooking and baking, which is a hobby I learned at a young age myself. My skills include emotion management, patience, and decision making. When caring for children, I find these skills to be important not only for their experience but also their safety. As a sitter, I love to be hands-on with the child whether that's with crafts, homework, chores, etc. But, my primary goal is to provide a new experience through learning and play! I have multiple profiles on different platforms, so I am glad to share all in order to see my recommendations. I am trained in CPR, First Aid, and Stop The Bleed.

"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)."
