Kassandra $26 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kassandra. I’m 23 years old and live in Evergreen Park, Illinois. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant and currently working toward my associate degree at Moraine Valley. Caring for others has always been a passion of mine, especially when it comes to children. I have hands-on childcare experience from working as a class leader at a daycare in Brookfield, where I cared for infants and toddlers from newborn to 2 years old. In addition, my background as a CNA has given me strong patient-care skills, including safety awareness, responsibility, and compassion. I truly love working with kids and believe they are the future, which is why I care for every child with patience, kindness, and love. I am also a big animal lover and feel comfortable around pets. Friends and families describe me as dependable, trustworthy, and attentive, so you can feel confident knowing your children are in caring and capable hands.

Tobia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Tobia and I'm currently caregiving part-time for my great aunt. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I'm the youngest of four girls and I have a combined count of 35 nieces and nephews including great and great greats lol. So I definitely have a lot of experience babysitting and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and extra curricular activities. Being a caregiver allows me to thrive in my personality. I have a huge heart, I'm kind, caring, compassionate, reliable, trust worthy, patient, and attentive. I'm also tidy, organized, detailed oriented and possess time management. I cook, clean, run errands, and assist in other areas as needed. I was the primary caretaker for my mom who battled dementia, for over 10 years, so I am very comfortable with senior care. I offer medication reminders, meal prep, bathing and assistance with personal needs, drive to appointments, and perform other tasks as needed. I have 3 dogs of my own, who are my world. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs.

"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."
