Hi! I'm Janet, a dependable, energetic caregiver who loves helping families. As a working mom of two amazing humans (14 and 11), I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust. I believe raising kids takes a village, and I strive to be a safe, reliable, and nurturing part of yours. I currently work for Mary Bridge Therapies at MultiCare and bring over 20 years of CPR and First Aid training, along with nearly 22 years in the dental field. My healthcare background has taught me patience, compassion, attention to detail, and how to build genuine, trusting relationships with families. I'm also a huge animal lover! I have two cats, Pumpkin and Dewey, and I love both cats and dogs. Whether it's story time, homework help, outdoor play, or caring for your pets, I'm happy to jump in. I'm currently earning my Bachelor's degree in Data Science at Arizona State University while learning Tagalog and balancing life as a mom. I joined UrbanSitter because I enjoy spending time with children and pets and wanted to do more meaningful work while pursuing my degree. I'm bubbly, outgoing, dependable, and love connecting with people. I'd be honored to care for your family and provide a fun, safe, and positive environment for your children and pets.

Hermela $21 per hour for 1 child

My career life for the past 6 years has been different avenues of childcare. The avenues I followed were, Daycare worker, before and after school care. Many different roads, but they all have a common interest CHILDREN. I wanted to nurture and teach young children. At the age of eighteen, I liked the idea of playing all day and getting paid for it. I have been working in early childhood education for the past five years, primarily with children aged 3 month to 7 years. During this time, I have gained valuable experience in creating engaging and educational activities for children. believe my patience, creativity, and strong understanding of child development make me a good nanny. I'm also adaptable and can effectively communicate with both children and parents.

"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)."
