I’ve had the opportunity to nanny for 20+ families, whether it be ocasional sitting or reoccurring, I am equipped for the job. I have also worked for the Chicago Park District for three summers. Over that time I’ve cared for hundreds of children. I’ve learned how to best plan and execute daily activities. I am attentive and open to learning how to care for each and every person.

I always like kids, I like them to be free to play and learn in a safe environment. I like to help them to grow at their pace but exploring their own potential. I was some years in college in the biology carrer. I'm a mother of two and I'm ready to help.

Olivia was great with my kids. She's very professional, she was punctual and even tidied up while she was at my home. The thing that stood out the most was how quickly my 2 year old son warmed up to her. It usually takes him a few times to get to comfortable with people, but she was so sweet and kind that he loved her right away! I will continue to hire her for our future babysitting needs.

Hi- My name is Kenniya and I am 21 years old. I am offering child care, pet care and household services. I love children and being a babysitter. I have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers and kids(including twins!) since I was about 10 years old. My responsibilities have included helping with school, crafts, tutoring, anything you can name I’ve probably done it! I also work as a household assistant. As a household assistant, I help with cleaning, running errands, and light cooking when needed. My main focus is on keeping the home organized and taking care of various tasks to make daily life easier. While cooking isn't my specialty, I can still make a meal when needed. I don't have a car, so I don't drive, but I'll still get where I need to go! I’m great with animals and love dogs. I'm not a big fan of cats, but I have no problem working with them, I’m more so excited to work with families that have dogs. I enjoy spending time with dogs, know how they behave, and get along with all breeds. Whether it's walking them, playing, or taking care of them, I’m committed to making sure they're happy and healthy. I believe there's an issue with my calendar on this platform, but I'm always available for any questions, interviews, or job opportunities. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime! I am also fully vaccinated & CPR certified!

Kenniya is so great with our 2 year old. She plays with him and works with him on his colors, numbers, shapes, etc., and he just adores her! She also helps out around the house, which is especially tough with a toddler. Couldn't be happier!

Hi, I'm Marci! I bring nurture, patience, reliability, and a fun-loving demeanor. I enjoy going for walks, organizational projects, spending time with family, and exploring the city. Here to lighten your day-to-day load as an added extension of your family. I welcome collaboration, open communication, and friendly demeanors of all. I enjoy being a nanny knowing that I am helping foster environments and routines for families. Building connections with guardians and children that last past the job bring me a sense of joy. I've been fortunate to be able to build trust and provide quality care as professional nanny for more than 5 years. Although I've cared for children from infant to teen, my care of focus has centered around children under 2-years old. I'm versed in infant care; helping to create and incorporate consistent routines for sleep, feeding, changing, and development. Children thrive in my care because of my patience, attentiveness, and firm, but gentle boundaries. I create opportunities for little/big personalities to blossom with a sense of curiosity, confidence, and independence. Basic care needs pertaining to child(ren) are provided in a safe and proactive manner. Spaces used are maintained. All activites are incorporated and encouraged from educational activities, storytime, sensory play, arts & crafts, games, imaginative play, outdoor fun, and homework help. I'm allergic to cats. I look forward to collaborating working with your family! References available at request.

"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."
