Griselda $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm a dependable, patient, and caring mom of three girls with years of experience caring for children of all ages. I started babysitting, house sitting, and pet sitting as a preteen, and growing up in a large family taught me how to stay organized, multitask, and adapt to just about anything. I'm happy to help with school pick-ups and drop-offs, prepare simple meals, assist with light household tasks, and keep your child's daily routine running smoothly. Whether we're playing outside, reading books, or winding down for bedtime, my goal is to create a safe, fun, and comfortable environment where kids feel cared for and parents feel confident they're in good hands. I know every family is different, so I do my best to be reliable, communicative, and flexible while treating your home and children with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.

I’m 24 and currently pursuing my master’s in Elementary Education at DePaul. I’ve cared for kids from infants to grade schoolers, including summers babysitting my cousins while their pilot parents traveled. I’ve also worked in after-school programs and animal hospitals, so I’m equally great with pets! I’m CPR certified, active, and love keeping kids engaged through play, learning, and creativity. I’m happy to help with cooking, light cleaning, or homework—anything that keeps your home running smoothly.

"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."
