Hi, and thank you for looking at my profile. My name is Mirella and I absolutely love children! I've been working with them for 20 years now. I graduated from Columbia College with a bachelor's in music business management & marketing, as well as early childhood education. I also have a master's degree in internet marketing. I have extensive experience and education in child development that I am constantly continuing. I have been a professional babysitter, professional nanny, daycare provider, nursery attendant, camp counselor, tutor, ECE teacher (birth-2nd grade), and Newborn Care Specialist (birth-18months). I am CPR and First Aid trained and certified. I participated in the 2012 to 2016 national nanny training days, happiest baby on the block, and nanny Stella of nanny 911 certifications. I'm a member of the US Nanny Association and the International Nanny Association. I am the child care provider for the cast & crew of 3 TV shows filming in Chicago. I was nominated for America's Top Sitter 2014. In early 2016 I created, hosted, and spoke at Chicago Nanny Training Day. In August 2016 I became a certified Postpartum Doula and in December 2016, a Labor Doula. I’m the Vice President of the Nanny Sitter Education Fund. Lastly, I am an Expert at CareNectar.com Most importantly, I truly adore children! I treat each child as if they are my own to give them the best love and care possible. I love encouraging language, music, and reading. I also love to do outdoor activities and arts & crafts. More than anything, I love being a positive and loving influence on their development and in their lives. I love being an UrbanSitter SuperSitter! Previously, I was hired on as UrbanSitter's Education Coordinator and have trained my fellow sitters on Newborn Care. I also provide one on one or small group workshops for parents, as well as nanny hiring and training. Furthermore, I was also hired on as UrbanSitter's Chicago Brand Ambassador. So hopefully I'll get to meet you at an event soon! In my spare time, I love spending time with my husband, friends and family. I also love to travel, support the arts, and do charity work. So whether it's spending the day with your precious little one, training your full-time caregiver, or giving you support, please feel free to reach out to me. Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Take care! :-)

Hi -My name is Gladys. I’ve been working with kids since I was 15 and I have enjoyed getting to know each different kid. I started by watching my little brothers and sister and quickly learned that I had a talent for connecting with kids. I began watching kids around my neighborhood and even achieved a CPR certificate.

“Gladys has been our full time nanny since January. She has cared for our three children (11, 9, and 5) wonderfully. She has navigated crazy morning routines, a child with high anxiety, and lots of afterschool activities. She is patient with our children, keeps them on schedule and has been very engaging during the day with our youngest. She has a wonderful network of nannies in our area and set up play dates with other children and our son. She is very friendly, on time, and flexible. She has brought her daughter with and that has not impacted her ability to care for our children - in fact they absolutely adore her! We are sad to see Gladys go, but our kids will all be in full time school starting in the fall.”

"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."
