Hi! My name is Elena, and I’m a very passionate and caring person who truly loves working with children. I’ve been caring for and working with kids for about 10 years, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy every day. I’m currently studying nursing, where I continue to grow my skills in care and responsibility. In my previous roles, I’ve helped families by taking kids to and from school, tutoring, going to the pool, watching movies together, and helping with fun, safe activities that support learning and creativity. I’m also very comfortable around pets — no problem at all with furry friends! Additionally, I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, which allows me to connect easily with children and families from diverse backgrounds. Overall, I’m patient, dependable, and committed to providing a positive, nurturing environment for every child I care for.

Mila 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mila. I'm a proud mom of two kids— my oldest just graduated, and my youngest is in college. I’ve spent most of my life taking care of kids. First my own, and also my nieces and nephews. Now that my kids are growing up I’m excited to help other families and get back to doing something I truly enjoy, taking care of little ones. I know how busy life gets as a parent, so I’m happy to help however I can. From childcare to housekeeping, errands, school drop-offs and pickups, and cooking. I love being in the kitchen and making healthy, home-cooked meals! I speak both Spanish and English. I currently work in food and retail, but I’m looking to make a move into full-time babysitting work. I’m reliable, caring, and bring years of real-life experience. Thank you!

ā€œI’ve worked part time with Mila and she has an amazing work ethic!! She’s always early, thinks ahead, and is adaptable in shift. You can see how much she cares about kids when we help a nearby daycamp. She talks to kids with so much care and respect (which is why we always send her out as our speaker lol). She’d be an awesome babysitter!ā€

"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)."
