I am originally from Tennessee. I am the a proud mom of a 9 year old daughter, a 24 year old daughter and a 30 year old son! I have spent the majority of my life caring for and raising up children. I have nannied consistently for one family for the last 9 years, ranging over the years from full time to part time. When I started there was only one child and now there are 3! I am a lover of humans, tiny humans, animals, nature, gardening, and books. I use a peaceful, loving approach to childcare and love to just be silly! I would love to hang out with your little ones...i enjoy snuggling, hugs, reading, make-believe, language development, arts & crafts and music & dance. I am also willing and available to negotiate rates for help with any aspect of home management: be it cooking, caring for pets, cleaning, laundry or organizing! I am also open and accepting of blended families ♡ I owned a cleaning business for 10 years in Nashville, before moving to Washington. I have enjoyed many lovely, constructive interpersonal relationships with my clients throughout the years. I greatly enjoy networking in my community and building meaningful long-lasting relationships. I can also be flexible with my rates, depending on your budget. Finding the right fit and building authentic relationships are my utmost priority. I'm available for a part time schedule and can be super flexible. I would love the option to integrate my 9 year old into our care arrangements, although not necessary. She is very personable & enjoys making friends of all ages. I can provide abundant contact information for character references or you can have a look at my LinkedIn profile, where several of my clients have left professional recommendations. I would love the opportunity to meet and greet with you and your kiddos! I look forward to the enrichment of each of our lives as we join journeys :)

Dawn is fantastic! We will definitely hire her again.

"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."

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)."

Eric D., dad of two
