Hi! I am a recent graduate from Marquette university! I majored in psychology and have extensive background in working with children ages 0-18! I worked at Brain Balance Achievement Center my senior year of college as well as Great Lakes Behavior Analysis my junior year! I have babysat for 10 years now! All of these experiences have helped me gain skills when working with all types of kids. I am looking for a job in the Chicago area but in the mean time I would love to help some families out! I have a vehicle and am comfortable with dogs!
Hi! My name is Irma, but I prefer to go by my middle name, Laura. I am a bilingual (English and Spanish) Latina with over 12 years of experience in early childhood education — 6 years as a kindergarten teacher and 6 years teaching preschool. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education from DePaul University, and during my college years, I also taught Sunday school. As a mom myself, I understand the importance of creating a warm, nurturing environment and am very comfortable with household tasks like cooking, cleaning, and organizing. I am passionate about supporting children’s growth and development, and I look forward to bringing my experience and care into your home!
"Hi there! I’m a career caregiver with a decade of experience and a heart for helping kids reach their full potential. Currently working as a SECA at CPS, I have a deep understanding of the unique needs of children aged 6 to 14. Whether it's helping with homework, managing busy schedules, or providing specialized support for neurodivergent learners, I pride myself on being patient, adaptable, and reliable. I’d love to help your family find a rhythm that works for everyone!"
Hello! I'm De'ja, a Chicago-based caregiver with 7 years of experience caring for infants through elementary-aged children. I strive to create a safe, fun, and dependable environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable while parents have peace of mind. I have experience with Montessori and Reggio Emilia approaches, incorporating art, loose parts, and imaginative play into daily activities. I enjoy creating engaging, play-based learning experiences that support academic and social development. I've also worked in programs that emphasize nature-based play, including outdoor exploration and community adventures, which is something I truly enjoy. I hold an Associate's degree in Art with coursework in Early Childhood Education, and I'm currently pursuing my BA in an asynchronous online program for Psychology with a focus on child development. I enjoy staying active, art, STEM, books, and games!
I’m a pediatric nurse in my home country and I’ve working with kids about 10 years! I have experience in all ages and a lot of skills with kids! I also have a CPR training!

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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
