Booked by 3 families in Kent, WA

Hi, My name is Griselda, I worked at Easter Seals Angle Lake Child Development Center as a teacher's assistant while I was studying child development in Green River College. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I love taking care of babies and children. I encourage learning through playing, exploring, and music. I enjoy reading to babies and children in Spanish and English. I can pick children up from school and drive them to after school activities. I like to go with babies and children to the library and the park. I help children with their homework and reading. My goal as a nanny is to help babies and children grow physically, intellectually, socially and emotionally. I do this by providing a safe and nurturing environment and planning daily fun educational activities for them. Thanks Griselda M.

"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)."
