Hello my name is Caroline, I am professional nanny looking to build long lasting relationships with families as a caretaker. I worked as a professional Chef before transitioning into childcare, so if you need me to feed your little ones, I am the right person for you! I just graduated with a degree in Psychology and I am CPR Certified. I am also bilingual with native fluency in both English and Spanish. And have experience with kids from 0-10 years old and long term references from nanny families. I believe in giving kids the space to express themselves while providing healthy and safe guidelines in a fun and educative environment.
“Caroline was an absolute delight! She took on a job for us at the last minute, and I am so glad we found her! Caroline was communicative and on-time. She started connecting with my daughter right away and was immediately willing to engage with my daughter on her terms. She kept my very energetic child engaged for hours with minimal screen time, which is essentially miraculous. I will absolutely be hiring her again!”

“Geveve helped our family as our planned babysitter was sick--she accepted the job last minute and promptly arrived about an hour after booking. She jumped right in as a pro engaging with our 3 and 7 year old, they had a great evening together! Geveve was communicative and I would definitely book her for babysitting again!”

Hello! My name is Natalia, and working with children has always been my true passion. I hold a Master’s degree in Education and have over 17 years of experience helping children learn and grow. For the past four years, I’ve been a Preschool Teacher at a private school in Chicago, where I work with young learners ages 2–4. I’m 43 years old and a proud mom of three (ages 22, 20, and 9). My colleagues and families describe me as warm, dedicated, and reliable. In my free time, I also work as a babysitter, which I truly enjoy — spending time with little ones always brings me joy and positive energy. 💛

"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
