I am a caring, responsible, and patient caregiver with both professional experience and real-life parenting experience. I am the mother of a 3-year-old child, so I understand firsthand the love, attention, and responsibility that caring for a baby or young child requires. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from my home country, and I currently work providing behavioral therapy to children with autism, which has strengthened my skills in emotional regulation, structure, patience, and child development. I truly enjoy working with children and focus on creating a safe, calm, and structured environment where they feel loved, understood, and supported. I am very attentive to routines, safety, and each child’s individual needs. I can help with: Daily childcare routines Meal preparation Light household tasks related to the child Educational and developmental activities I value clear and honest communication with parents and treat every child as if they were my own. My primary language is Spanish, and I can understand and communicate in English. I am reliable, nurturing, and flexible with my schedule.

Booked by 10 families in Lockport, IL

HELLO ✨ Before I blab about myself, I’d like to first extend a warm welcome and hug of encouragement! Raising little people can be ROUGH and we’re all doing the best we can, which is why I’m so passionate about “The Village” ! It takes a community to raise decent human beings. That’s where I come in as a helping hand. My experience dates back to over a decade. I’ve worked with kids ranging between preemie infants to transitioning young adults, including disabled & special need individuals💛💙🥰 I’m looking for a full time long term family to grow with as a nanny or full/part time babysitting. I’m usually flexible, and always easy going. Reliable, alert, and safe.

“Chanyelle was wonderful and very caring. She was calm, patient, and attentive while watching over my sleeping kids. She made sure they were safe and comfortable throughout the night and kept the house peaceful and organized. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my children were in such good hands. I truly appreciate her kindness, professionalism, and reliability, and i would gladly recommend her to other families.”

"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."
