I live in Foster City. Two children 20yrs & 15yrs. I am nurturing. Hugs are always important. I am patient. I can be a softy or strict. It depends on what the parent tells me each child needs. I love to get on the floor with the child or go outside and watch them play. I love taking pictures for memory albums. I enjoy teaching and seeing that moment when the child gets the idea being learned. I fill in for family when they want to enjoy some get away time. I miss the younger years when children are learning to read and count. That is what sparks my interest in being a Nanny. EMSA Approved (Medic First Aid/CPR Certification) Background Check on File.

I have to echo the rest of the reviews here. Isabel has been fantastic with my three month old since she was just a little over a month old. She watches her several times a week and occasionally on weekend evenings. As a first time mom I was very concerned about finding a sitter I could trust, and after speaking with her references and meeting Isabel in person I felt very comfortable leaving my daughter with her. She is very dependable and easy to work with. We feel very lucky to have found her! -- Cindy T.

Isabel has been regularly taking care of our 9-month-old daughter for 2 months. She is extremely dependable and always on time. She is caring and interactive (lots of book reading and singing) with our daughter. Our daughter lights up when Isabel arrives each morning. She takes her outdoors nearly every day, which means a lot to us. Isabel was quick to follow our schedule and has been respectful of our instructions. We are very happy with Isabel and so is our daughter.

Isabel has been watching my 2 month old son for a few hours a day twice a week in order to get him to take a botlle in preparation for my return to work. She got him to drink on her first try. He took to her right away without a single tear and is always content when I return. She also watched our 2.5 year old daughter as well so we could attend a wedding and our daughter barely noticed us leave and she is a drama queen. We will contunue to have her babysit for us occasionally when I return to work!

Isabel has watched our 3 1/2 year old twins a few times for much needed date nights. Our kids took to her immediately. She is a great blend of warmth and professionalism. She very dependable, always on time and willing to be flexible if timing gets pushed back. We have been very lucky to find her and have her available in the area!

Isabel has been a wonderful sitter for our 4 year old son. Always a few minutes early, she always arrives eager to play games, puzzles or books with our son. She is comfortable cooking him meals, giving him baths, and getting him ready for bed. Isabel has been willing to work extra hours or extra days if needed. We enjoy having Isabel as our sitter and definitely recommend her. Chris H (March 2010).

Isabel has been a great resource for both emergency and scheduled babysitting. My boys love her and remember her even when several weeks have passed since they last saw her. She is reliable, fun and compassionate, but will not hesitate to discipline when necessary--and boys need that!

Isabel has been a wonderful sitter for my 4 month old son. She is always on time (if not a few minutes early), has been very flexible, and professional. She is very interactive and playful with my son, engaging in age appropriate play. Many times I've come home to find her reading to him, playing with him on the floor, or helping him explore new experiences. She is happy to follow care instructions on things like feeding, nap time, etc. Any family would be lucky to scoop her up! I've already recommended her to my friends looking for a fantastic babysitter.
