I have been in child care in many different capacities for ten years and have experience with children of all ages. Having been a household manager, nanny, and even an au pair I have seen a little bit of everything. Currently I live on the north side of Chicago but I have my own car and am more than comfortable traveling. I have an undergraduate degree from Southern Illinois as well as a background in linguistics. Currently I am a career nanny but I also attend law school in a blended program. I am Red Cross first aid, CPR, and lifeguard certified as well.
“Mackenzie was such a great sitter! She helped us out in a last minute pinch and my 11 and 8 year old loved her! ”
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."
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
