Liberty $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Liberty. I am a 21 year old special needs pre - k teacher looking for a side job. I am in school to become a pediatric nurse. I love fun activities, helping out, making the kids day better. I can cook, clean, and complete any tasks needed. I was a daycare assistant in my grandmas daycare since I was 13. So my whole life is pretty much involved with kids. I have my own car, so I don’t mind taking the kids out for mini brain breaks, ice cream, dinner and etc activities. I’m all in for kid fun as I always play with my pre k class at recess.. lol. I hope I can be a great fit for your family.

Booked by 6 families in Park Ridge, IL

Hello! My name is Chloe and I've been working in childcare since I was practically a child myself! Nothing brings me more joy and fulfillment than caring for children, and watching them learn, play and grow. Outside of childcare, I am very passionate about art, theater and travel, and I incorporate these passions into my education and care. I love doing both structured and free form art activities with children, and I believe art, dance and music are fundamental to a child's development. I also have lived abroad in both Costa Rica and Guatemala, and enjoy speaking/teaching Spanish to the children I care for, while also opening them up to cultures from around the world. If you are looking for a nanny who is energetic, warm, creative, and will love your child like their own, then we might be a great fit!

Alexandra $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I am the ideal 21- year-old babysitter if you're searching for someone who is responsible, courteous, gregarious, professional, and bilingual. Born & raised in the city of Chicago I’ve always enjoyed being outdoors. I know my way around the whole city, with that being hopefully I can take your kid and or kiddos to a museum or park, etc! I was the only female student on my campus to graduate with a biliteracy seal on her diploma. I hold both national and international certifications. I also graduated with honors. I presided over a club in middle school and the drill flag team (majorette with a flag) in high school. I enjoy baking and cooking, and I don't mind doing so for an additional fee. With me, I hope to be able to help your children feel secure and at ease not only with them but the parent(s) as well.

"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."
