Hi, I am a highly skilled career nanny with over 20+ years of experience caring for medically fragile, infants (post NICU) I am trained as a CNA, PPD and NCS bringing strong medical awareness, patience, and attentiveness and care to every family I support. I also bring a Loving, calm, and highly nurturing approach to childcare, with strong skills in supporting medically, fragile, premature infants through older children. I’m experienced in creating structured routines, maintaining a safe and organized environment, and responding intuitively to each child’s emotional and developmental needs. Families value my reliability, patience, and naturally motherly presence, as well as my ability to provide attentive care during important stages such as newborn adjustment, post-surgery recovery, and everyday growth through play and learning. My focus is always on helping children feel safe, loved, and supported so they can thrive. 🤍 I am also available for flying and travel chaperoning, as well as short, and long distance transportation.

I've been working with children (all ages) for the past 18+ years and thoroughly enjoy my career. I plan on continuing childcare for many years to come and look forward to meeting you and your family!🙂 **NOTE** $25-$35/hour My rates differ depending on age of child, number of children cared for, hours needed, duties required, distance traveled, etc. Please inquire- happy to work with you!🙂

Sarah did a wonderful job watching my son William while I was out working out. She was super friendly and made him feel comfortable right away. I really appreciated her flexibility with our schedule too. William was happy when I got home, and I’d happily book her again!

I moved back to San Antonio, Texas from San Diego, CA November 2023. I am quite familiar with SATX given I grew up there. Mother of a high-functioning autistic adult male. Have been a caregiver for two seniors (separate situations during Covid lockdown). Tutor and sitter to eight year-old male during Covid lockdown. Through UrbanSitter I have helped several families with their children ages 2 months to 13 years old. Sunday's I am the lead nursery caretaker of under 4 YOs for a local church. I can provide household services such as cleaning, light cooking, grocery/sundry shopping, banking, car starting, records (finance/medical, etc.) management, and laundry. Patience and creative. I love dogs and cats, and I have been around 40 plus dogs while doing QuickBooks for a small business (breeder/boarding/raw dogfood manufacturer). I am a former accounting/contracts/fiinance professional. I am happy to do this for other families because I understand that respite is necessary for the parents and the family, even I benefited from another person's help with my son when I needed it most.

Karen arrived on time. She was excellent with our high energy kids. They are excited to have her back in the future, and we felt secure leaving them with her.

Nurturing young minds is my passion. For 20 years, I've dedicated myself to providing enriching childcare experiences. My graduate degree, combined with Early Child Development coursework, has equipped me with the knowledge to support each child's unique growth. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational apps. I'm happy to help with cooking, carpooling, and swimming supervision. I am comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, including verbal updates and texts. Knowing I can positively impact your child's life and provide reliable support for your family is why I love what I do. I can comfortably care for three children and would love to bring my patient, creative, and friendly approach to your family. ***** I take Zelle for payment*****

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
