Hello! I'm Violeta, currently a graduate from James Madison University. I have 5+ years of experience working with children. Starting with babysitting for family friends, I've expanded to helping families in the neighborhood. I have have experience working with children of all ages. I love engaging kids with hands-on activities and getting them outside on nice days. I have been a long term nanny for 3 boys for a year now and have repeat families that I have worked with through different apps. I'm excited about the possibility of using my childcare experience to contribute positively.

I have been a nanny since I was 15 years old. I have watched all ages of children from infants to preteens. I have worked with children with special needs as well. I am also accustomed to working with more than three children. I have had jobs as a summer nanny, date night babysitter, and overnight weekend sitter. I am also a swim coach and teach swim lessons, so I have worked with children in many different settings. I also have been a certified lifeguard for the past seven years and I am accustomed to teaching children to swim and saving their lives in the water. I am allergic to mushrooms so if meal prep is involved please make sure they are not involved with it! **Note if you cancel within less than 24 hours I require 2 hours minimum cancelation fee. Thank you!**

"We absolutely LOVE Isa โ€” 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)."
