Nomcebo $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi families I am a professional nanny who has 10+ yr experience . I'm now a mum myself to my adorable daughter who's 2 yrs old and know the exact care and love children need. I always ensure that they safe and needs are taken care of. I have tons of experience when it comes to kids from infants to teenagers. I have worked in a daycare Centre, and worked as a nanny. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I'm looking for a family that would be okay with me working with my daughter 3 or sometimes 4 times a week. I have been working with her from the time she was 2months with a family for 16months and another one for 8months which I both had great relationships with full time. I am able to take care of multiple kids at one time as I have worked in a daycare Centre and also have worked with families with more than one child. I easily adapt. The families I worked with loved the dynamic because their child had a playmate to play and interact with which is good for their developmental. Thank you

Hi, I’m Cierra! I’m a dedicated Early Childhood Educator with over 11 years of experience. I hold a Bachelors degree in Human Relations and a Masters in Teaching Early Childhood Education. I took the 25-26 school year off from teaching in the school system to work on opening my very own childcare center. Before joining the school system here in DC, I worked at top-rated childcare centers such as Little Scholars (Library of Congress) and Tiny Findings (GAO), where I was Lead Teacher of both infant and toddler classrooms. Babysitting and nannying aside teaching are true passions of mine, especially during school breaks, evenings, and weekends. I'm also a proud mom to a fun-loving 7-year-old daughter! **CPR/First Aid renewal: 3/12/2026 **Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc🔺

"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)."
