Blanca $23 per hour for 1 child

About Me I am a caring and responsible mother of three young adults. My childcare experience comes from raising my own children and helping care for my grandson since he was born. I have truly enjoyed the time I have spent with my grandson over the past five years. I love taking him to the park when the weather allows, going on short walks, and spending calm, quality time together in a safe and positive environment. I am patient, dependable, and attentive. I take pride in being trustworthy and providing gentle, supportive care. I have First Aid and CPR training. I have my own car, I am comfortable with pets, and I speak Spanish and English. I can also help with child-related housekeeping. I prefer caring for one child at a time so I can give them my full attention. I would be happy to support your family and provide loving care for your child.

"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)."
