Hinda $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Hinda, and I offer childcare services for newborns, infants, toddlers, and young children, as well as senior care and assistance with running errands. I am a caring, patient, and reliable caregiver with hands-on experience supporting families in both everyday and high-needs situations. I have worked with children of different ages and have strong experience with newborn and infant care. I am also a parent myself and spent several months closely involved in hospital care alongside doctors, nurses, and specialists, which gave me a deep understanding of infant safety, routines, and medical awareness. My responsibilities have included feeding, diapering, sleep routines, playtime, developmental activities, and maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. I am CPR and First Aid trained and always prioritize children’s well-being and comfort. I also provide attentive care for seniors and can assist with errands, appointments, and daily tasks as needed. I am comfortable following family routines, communicating clearly with parents, and providing dependable care. I take pride in being calm, attentive, and supportive, and I truly enjoy helping children and seniors feel safe, happy, and cared for. I look forward to working with families who value trust, communication, and compassionate care.

Hello!! I’m Christy and I’m 18 years old, I graduated from yorkville high school and currently in community college. I am offering child care and pet care!

I would love to share my skills, if needed, including tennis, cooking/baking, crafting, and reading! I’m able to help with chores and other activities/ tasks with kids or pets.

Laila $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents and families! I am currently working at a daycare/preschool but am looking to nanny! I have about 3 years of experience, mostly with infants but I have also spent a good amount of time in a toddler and preschool classrooms. Although I may not have a lot of experience with older children, I would love to learn and gain more experience! As well as being an assistant infant teacher, I do love to babysit in my free time, this also includes doing household tasks such as meal prepping, cleaning, and running errands. As I mentioned, I may not be as qualified as others, but I would love to be your nanny/caregiver because I know that I can and will learn about your child(ren), helping them to grow as they help me grow.

Hello! I'm De'ja, a Chicago-based caregiver with 7 years of experience caring for infants through elementary-aged children. I strive to create a safe, fun, and dependable environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable while parents have peace of mind. I have experience with Montessori and Reggio Emilia approaches, incorporating art, loose parts, and imaginative play into daily activities. I enjoy creating engaging, play-based learning experiences that support academic and social development. I've also worked in programs that emphasize nature-based play, including outdoor exploration and community adventures, which is something I truly enjoy. I hold an Associate's degree in Art with coursework in Early Childhood Education, and I'm currently pursuing my BA in an asynchronous online program for Psychology with a focus on child development. I enjoy staying active, art, STEM, books, and games!

Hi, I'm Irene! I’m looking to babysit for more experience in the childcare field! I have worked mostly with children with special needs and was training to be an ABA therapist. Love to work with all children! I love all animals and I’m very well acquainted with most pet care (exotic as well). I’ve been babysitting unofficially for about 9 years so I wanted to give it a more professional try!

"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."
