Booked by 6 families in Oak Lawn, IL

Caring and reliable childcare provider with over 2 years of experience supporting children across different ages and personalities. I create a warm, structured environment where kids feel safe, engaged, and excited to learn. With a background in teaching and activity planning, I love organizing creative play, outdoor time, and educational moments that support each child’s development. I’m patient, proactive, and attentive to routines, safety, and emotional well-being—making sure both children and parents feel confident and at ease.

“Marifer was amazing! We hired her to keep an eye on our 3-year-old so that we could focus on packing our stuff for our upcoming move, and she did far far more than just keep an eye on her! It was a very hot day, so Ava constantly wanted to go to the playground, and then back home once she felt hot. Marifer humored her every single time, and they ended up going to the playground and back 5 times in the same day!! Ava had an amazing day, and now all she’s doing is asking when Marifer is coming back. 😊”

"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."
