Melody 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Berwyn, IL

Hi families,I’m Melody! I’m a warm, calm, and patient childcare professional with over 5 years of experience working with children 6 weeks- 15 years old. I truly enjoy getting to know each child as an individual and creating a caring, nurturing environment where they can feel comfortable, confident, and free to be themselves. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with Reggio, Waldorf, and Montessori-inspired teaching styles. I love bringing elements of these approaches into everyday activities, especially through art, creativity, and sensory play. I enjoy creating activities that allow children to explore, get curious, use their imagination, and learn through hands-on experiences. I’m CPR/AED and Anaphylaxis trained, and I’m also a non-smoker. The safety and well-being of the children I care for is always one of my top priorities. Outside of childcare, I love reading, yoga, cooking, going for walks, and visiting farmers markets on Sunday mornings. I enjoy a slower, intentional lifestyle and love sharing that sense of curiosity and appreciation for the little things with children. Most of all, I genuinely love working with children. It’s incredibly rewarding to watch them grow, discover new interests, and become more independent. I strive to be a dependable and nurturing presence for both the children and their families. I’m excited to get to know you more!

“Melody was wonderful. She took excellent care of my 10 week old baby. She knew exactly how to soothe him and read his cues. Seems to also genuinely like the job. Highly recommend! ”

Eric $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Eric — a medical student with years of hands-on childcare experience in both family and hospital settings. I’ve cared for kids of all ages, from newborns to teens, and have been an uncle since 14. I spent five years at the University of Chicago Medical Center cuddling and comforting babies in the NICU and engaging children in the playroom, then volunteered at Lurie Children’s Hospital supporting pediatric cardiac patients. Now, I help coordinate Rush University’s Buddies & Cuddlers program, training and scheduling volunteers who comfort infants and children. I also mentor high school students through my nonprofit, Sneakers to Scrubs, helping them explore medical careers. I love helping kids feel safe, calm, and happy — whether feeding an infant, reading stories, or organizing activities. I’m CPR and First Aid trained, fully vaccinated, and bring a dependable, caring presence to every family I work with.

Liberty $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Liberty. I am a 21 year old special needs pre - k teacher looking for a side job. I am in school to become a pediatric nurse. I love fun activities, helping out, making the kids day better. I can cook, clean, and complete any tasks needed. I was a daycare assistant in my grandmas daycare since I was 13. So my whole life is pretty much involved with kids. I have my own car, so I don’t mind taking the kids out for mini brain breaks, ice cream, dinner and etc activities. I’m all in for kid fun as I always play with my pre k class at recess.. lol. I hope I can be a great fit for your family.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
