As a dedicated and compassionate childcare provider with 12 years of experience, I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children to grow and thrive. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and communication in supporting both children and parents. Whether helping with homework, planning educational activities, or simply being a reliable and loving presence, I am committed to supporting the family’s unique needs and routines. I’m excited about the opportunity to bring my enthusiasm and care to a home where I can make a positive and lasting impact. I have 6 little cousins that i’ve baby sat over the course of 12 years starting from 1 month old. I’ve kept my family friend’s children over the years and I am currently a substitute teacher searching for something beyond. I’ve sat with my elderly neighbors and helped around the house for them as well. I am highly skilled in the caregiver field and believe if you choose me to care for your family I will be an excellent asset that you won’t regret. I’m am an extreme empath and a tad bit silly. I love to sew with my sewing machine and I clean very well. I love to make an impacts on children’s and families lives so they will never forget me.

"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)."
