Hi! My name is Brianna, I am 24 years old and I am a professional nanny based in the Alexandria, VA area reaching Arlington, VA and DC. I am a screen-free, play-based nanny as I prioritize interactive and imaginative play as well as age appropriate developmental/instructional time. I strive to create a safe, nurturing and fun environment with kindness, creativity and a passion to learn. About my experience— I have been a professional nanny since August 2023. Over the last three years I have worked with children aged newborn-12 years old. Truly, it is hard to say what I haven’t done in my three years of experience! From creating and maintaining infant routines to potty training toddlers and assisting with elementary school drop off, I have had the opportunity to learn so much in the last three years. I value working closely with parents to ensure the best, proper care for their child(ren). A bit about me personally— I grew up in the Alexandria, VA area with my parents and two brothers. I have always had a love for books, writing and music. I love to bake and I spend endless hours crafting all sorts of things! I am hoping to find a full time position with a flexible start date after August 2026. Reach out with any questions, I’m looking forward to connecting soon!

Booked by 1 family in Newington, VA

With more than 6 years of teaching experience, I dealt with all kids ages starting from infants till teens. Being a mother wasn't my first experience but one of the most important ones feeling what any mother can go through while needing all sorts of support. I worked with elderly as well as a volunteer especially for those lonely soles ditched with no touch of warmth or communication after devoting their lives for their children. I'm super clean and like to maintain a safe atmosphere for family with a passion for cooking from different cuisines. Pets are also part of my love expression but I deal only with some basics for cats, yet trying to get used to puppies as well but need time and experience to achieve that. I'm multilingual, opened on all sorts of Art and Culture and love to exchange talks about them. I see giving care as a main part of showing our humanity and one of the best love languages.

"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)."
