Booked by 1 family in Cicero, IL

Hi- My name is Guadalupe but I go by Lupe and I’m currently a student at Roosevelt University. I am looking for part time babysitting and pet sitting jobs. I am a science major so I have weird class hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am available on Thursdays after 3pm. I am available full time on Wednesdays and Fridays. On Mondays I have class from 11:00 am to 1:30pm so I am free after that time. Some of the responsibilities I can do is dropping off kid/s to school and some picking up from school as well as doing activities that will engage children. I don’t have a car so I don’t drive as I am in the south loop area. I love cooking but I cannot cook anything with peanuts or tree nuts as I am allergic. I have been working for the Chicago Park District as a summer seasonal recreational leader for the past 3 summers since I was 17. I’ve worked with children ages 3-5, 6-8 years old as well as 9-13 years old. A few things I have done while working as a recreational leader is organizing activities for the day, going to the library as well as teaching them sports skills like learning how to do basic soccer, basketball and kickball. I live a mostly active lifestyle and I am very outgoing! I love working with children and being a part of their learning and development. I have 3 large dogs and 1 cat so I’ve had experience with animals for about 8 years now.

“Amazing help and character. My son loved her! ”

Hello families! For the past 8 years, I have been the go-to babysitter, cleaner, and organizer for my close friends and family.

But I don’t just stop at childcare—I’m here to help your entire household run smoothly. Whether you need thorough cleaning, meal prep, laundry, meticulous organizing, running errands, or even keeping up with lawn care, I’ve got it covered. I also have wonderful experience and deep patience working with senior citizens, making me an excellent fit for multigenerational households. What I bring to your family: Childcare: 8+ years of experience. I love kids and prioritize their safety and happiness. Home Management: Expert cleaning, laundry, organizing, cooking, and lawn care. Senior Care: Patient, respectful, and compassionate care for elderly family members. Logistics: Efficient errand-running and flawless time management. I treat every home and family with the utmost respect. I look forward to meeting you!

Angel $20 per hour for 1 child

I have experience caring for children of different ages, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for them. I’ve helped with daily routines such as homework, playtime, organizing activities, and keeping a consistent schedule. I understand how important it is for children to feel comfortable, supported, and engaged. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I always make safety my top priority. I communicate well with both children and parents, making sure everyone feels heard and informed. I enjoy being creative through games, crafts, and outdoor activities, and I’m able to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. While I don’t have much experience with cooking yet, I’m very willing to learn and follow any instructions or meal guidelines provided. What makes me a great caregiver is my genuine care for children, my strong sense of responsibility, and my ability to stay calm and positive in any situation. I strive to build trust and create a warm environment where kids can learn, grow, and have fun.

Iris 1 review
$24 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Cicero, IL

Hello! I have experience in childcare, as a mother I understand and comprehend the requirements and attention that children demand, I can help with easy tasks around the house such as preparing food for the children, basic cleaning, running errands, taking the kids to extracurricular activities, I also love pets, I have full-time availability from Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 2:30pm, my main language is Spanish but I understand English at 50%.

“Iris has been part of our family for two years, and it's hard to imagine our kids' early years without her. She started caring for our daughter Luna at just 3 months old, and when our son Atlas arrived about six months later, she took him on too, managing two infants without missing a beat. What sets Iris apart is how naturally she's become family, not just childcare. She reads both kids incredibly well, adapting to their different personalities and needs, and handled the jump from one baby to two with a calm we didn't know was possible. One thing we especially value is that Iris speaks to our children in Spanish, giving them real bilingual exposure from infancy. If you're looking for a professional nanny who will genuinely love your children and grow with your family, Iris is exactly that. We recommend her without hesitation.”

"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."
