$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Cicero, IL

Hi! My name is Paulina, and I am currently offering childcare services. I have been caring for newborns and infants for the past two years, and it has been a wonderful experience! I love babies and enjoy being part of their growth and development. I handle stimulating games and activities, take them for walks and outdoor outings, and am always very attentive to nap and mealtime routines. I also offer cat-sitting services; I love cats and have cared for them since I was very young!

“Paulina has cared for my newborn baby with warmth and confidence. She is knowledgeable with baby routines and development. She is a pleasure to have in the house too.”

Claire $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi all! My name is Claire, I’m 24 years old, and I’ve spent the past 10 years working with children of various ages. I worked as an overnight camp counselor for 9 & 10 year olds for two years, and then as a day camp counselor for Kindergartners for four years. Before starting to work in non-profit, I spent a year working as a full-time nanny for a family of two boys aged 4 and 6. For the last three years, I have been working in the Non-Profit sector with kids of various ages. I spent a year with the AmeriCorp organizing an enrichment program for homeless youth, and my specific site cared for about 10 kids aged K-6. Since then, I have been working at another organization as a Lead Youth Mentor to plan and lead an after school program for underprivileged school-aged kids. This job has also allowed me to spend time in Early Childhood Education, where I have received my ECE, first aid, and Mandated Reporter certificates. I have a year of experience working with toddlers, a year of experience working with Pre-K, and some experience with infant care. I have a valid US diver’s license and car, and have years of experience in teaching English/Reading comprehension for both pre-school and school-aged children, STEM curriculum/activity planning, tutoring (up to high school age primarily), arts organizing, and emotion coaching. Additionally, I adore animals (excluding maybe spiders), and would love to care for family pets as well! I have truly enjoyed working with children of all ages in such different settings over the past decade and would love to meet some new families! Please don’t hesitate to reach out and share what goals and expectations you have for the position—working with kids has definitely taught me to be patient and flexible.

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.

Hi! My name is Breanna, and I’m based in Uptown, Chicago. As the oldest of several siblings, caregiving has always come naturally to me. I’ve been working in childcare since I was 14, starting in daycare environments and expanding to private homes. With over a decade of hands-on experience, I’ve supported children through everything from temper tantrums to milestone moments, and I specialize in working with kids between 6 months and 14 years old. I’m reliable, patient, and deeply committed to creating safe, engaging spaces for children to grow. I’m also happy to assist with light housework and chores to make your day easier. In addition to childcare, I offer pet care and senior companionship. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions—I’d love to learn more about your family’s needs!

Booked by 1 family in Cicero, IL

Hello families! I'm Jason Gonzalez, an energetic Teacher's Assistant for Pre-K: 4-5, working for CPS for 3 years. I have two years experience in the Pre-K setting, and also one year of experience with age groups 7-9. At work I specialize in leading academic activities (e.g math, writing), and put a large emphasis on social and emotional development. My classroom also takes pride in play-based learning, which has helped our entire pre-k team earn a gold star rating! I currently attend Dominican University pursuing a Bachelors in History with a concentration in Education. My graduation date is Spring 2027. With my combined educational classes/field work and hands-on experience working in a public school setting, I consider myself an ideal candidate for childcare of all age ranges and backgrounds! I have also cared for both cats and dogs between family and friends throughout my academic career, and enjoy their company as much as anyone else's 🥰

“Jason was very responsive and professional, and my kids (3 and 5) had a great time with him. Jason has a very calm presence and knows how to engage/talk to kids. He helped my boys with dinner and bedtime, and the kids especially enjoyed book time with Jason. We’ll ask him to babysit again.”

"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."
