Makeda $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Makeda, and I am a university student at The Catholic University of America and an experienced caregiver committed to providing compassionate, reliable, and high-quality care. With over four years of childcare experience, I’ve had the joy of working with children of all ages while prioritizing their safety, well-being, and happiness. I enjoy creating fun, engaging activities, maintaining routines, and offering attentive emotional support to ensure every child feels safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. In addition to childcare, I have one year of experience caring for seniors, assisting with daily activities, and offering meaningful companionship. I’m also comfortable with pets and household responsibilities such as light cleaning, cooking, and organizing to help make everyday life run smoothly. I am CPR-certified and trained in First Aid, so you can feel confident that I’m prepared to respond calmly and effectively in case of an emergency. As a caregiver, I value dependability, kindness, and adaptability, and I understand the importance of building trust with the families I support. Whether you’re seeking help with children, elderly family members, pets, or household tasks, I’m here to assist and bring peace of mind knowing your loved ones are in capable and caring hands. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family with professionalism and heart.

"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)."
