Hi, I'm Larraine (Raine)! I am an experienced childcare professional with 10+ years of teaching experience working with children from infancy through Junior Kindergarten. In addition to my classroom experience, I have worked as a Nanny for a few different families including infants, and twins. I am passionate about creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, reading stories, exploring outdoors, visiting local libraries, and parks, and supporting developmental milestones through play and everyday experiences. Families describe me as dependable, patient, organized, and nurturing. I value open communication with parents and strive to become a trusted extension of the family while providing exceptional care for their little ones. I am seeking a full-time Nanny position in the Fredericksburg area with a family looking for a long-term, reliable caregiver. I look forward to connecting with you and your family!

"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)."
