Hi there! I'm Dzifa, a 24-year-old grad student at Tulane University. I am a Chicago Native, and attended Loyola University Chicago.I have experience as a full-time summer nanny for a 3-year-old, part time nanny for two 3-6 month olds and as a math tutor for kids ranging from fourth to tenth grade. I'm eager to learn and grow with your family! Located in Bronzeville , I have my own car and am open to outings like park visits, field trips, and after-school activities. Plus, I adore pets of all sizes, so animals are always welcome in the home!
“Dzifa is truly a gem! This was our first time in Chicago and my husband and I needed a sitter for our 5 and 9 year olds while we went to dinner with friends and attended a wedding on two different days. Dzifa arrived early to our hotel with a smile. Initially, my 9 year old son didn’t want to go site-seeing, but Dzifa showed him a great time! The children had a blast! She is very trustworthy with money for incidentals, and she was even honest in returning money when I was double-billed. In a perfect world, we would have brought Dzifa home with us! We definitely plan on using Dzifa again- even if it means flying her out to meet us! ”
— I am taking a break from childcare to handle some things in my personal life. Thank you for viewing my profile, and have a blessed day. ❤️ •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• *MORE ABOUT MYSELF* I have 9 years of childcare experience, working with ages 2 months - 14 years old. I am also a parent of a six year old who has highly-functioning ASD, so I enjoy being an independent childcare provider as it allows more flexibility in my schedule. Being a parent of child with special needs also means that I have first hand experience! I feel that I am great at creating structure for children, while also creating a safe and comfortable environment in which they can learn + grow! I have my ECE Level 1 Credential, First Aid/CPR Certification, as well as Food Service Manager Certification. Ultimately, my goal is to make you and your family’s lives easier! I love to work aside thoughtful parents that understand while I am there to assist you, I also have a life of my own. I believe that good communication is essential and I will exercise it at all times. Thank you!
Hi everyone, My name is Kavonah or Kay for the little ones. Currently, I am a school social worker. I have worked with kids in different settings including schools, summer camps, and daycare. I have worked with all ages and enjoy working with all age groups. I love doing different activities with children including arts and crafts, puzzles, drawing, card games, etc. I am able to incorporate social emotional learning into these activities where kids will learn social skills such as sharing, emotional regulation, respect, making good choices, conversation skills, conflict resolution, etc. I am comfortable with cooking, cleaning, run errands, and other tasks around the home.
I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I’m a responsible, caring, and patient person. Spanish is my first language, and I understand English (intermediate) so I can communicate when needed. I also have experience taking care of pets, including dogs, cats, and other animals. I enjoy helping with activities, games, homework, and making sure children feel safe and happy. I’m an assistant teacher in pre-k I’m available according to the cps calendar and weekends

"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
