Juliebeth $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi families, hola familias! My name is Juliebeth and I am currently enrolled at Loyola University pursuing a B.S in Psychology. I am bilingual, fluent in Spanish and English. I have always had a passion for working with children. Ever since I can remember, I would care for my siblings and babysit younger cousins. I am a former Montessori teacher for a Toddler Spanish Immersion classroom and worked with about 12 children a day, ages 2-3. I was also an assistant in a 3-6 year old Montessori Spanish classroom. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am COVID vaccinated and can provide proof of this. My hobbies besides babysitting include cooking, working out and watching movies. I love baseball games, traveling and spending time with my family. I have a vehicle of my own, transportation is not an issue. I am a very safe driver and have insurance/driver’s license, if needed to travel with children. I am also available to help with homework and light housework! I love to find activities to do in the city and I am always looking around. Please do not hesitate to reach out, I will get back to you as soon as possible. I cannot wait to meet you and your little ones!

Elianny $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a caring, responsible, and patient caregiver with both professional experience and real-life parenting experience. I am the mother of a 3-year-old child, so I understand firsthand the love, attention, and responsibility that caring for a baby or young child requires. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from my home country, and I currently work providing behavioral therapy to children with autism, which has strengthened my skills in emotional regulation, structure, patience, and child development. I truly enjoy working with children and focus on creating a safe, calm, and structured environment where they feel loved, understood, and supported. I am very attentive to routines, safety, and each child’s individual needs. I can help with: Daily childcare routines Meal preparation Light household tasks related to the child Educational and developmental activities I value clear and honest communication with parents and treat every child as if they were my own. My primary language is Spanish, and I can understand and communicate in English. I am reliable, nurturing, and flexible with my schedule.

Chere $26 per hour for 1 child

Hello—I’m a dependable, thoughtful caregiver with a calm, grounded presence and strong attention to detail. I bring a professional mindset to every home I work in, along with a genuine appreciation for creating environments where people (and pets) feel comfortable, supported, and well cared for. For child care, I have experience with children ages 5–12 and enjoy engaging them in reading, writing, arts and crafts, and both indoor and outdoor play. I also provide homework support, including tutoring in reading, writing, and elementary French. I’m an excellent cook and am happy to prepare nutritious, thoughtfully planned meals. I am particularly attentive to children with neurodiverse needs and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and following established routines. I’m comfortable working within specific structures or care plans to support each child’s comfort, focus, and overall well-being. For senior care, I offer warm, respectful companionship along with practical support such as meal preparation, light organization, and medication reminders. I’ve seen firsthand how meaningful it is for families to have someone they trust to step in, and I take that responsibility seriously, providing both ease for the family and genuine connection for the individual. For pet care, I have extensive experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and medical needs. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playing, and administering medications, including injections and subcutaneous fluids. I’m at ease with large breeds and high-energy animals and have no concerns about shedding. I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels; however, I am not a behavioral trainer. For the safety and well-being of both your pet and me, I do expect a baseline of manageable behavior and clear communication around any known triggers or routines. I’m always happy to follow established guidance to ensure a smooth and positive experience. Above all, I am reliable, discreet, and attentive. I understand the importance of trust when inviting someone into your home, and I aim to provide not just support but a sense of calm confidence that everything is being handled with care.

Michele $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Michele, and I'm in the Chicago area for babysitting. I help with housekeeping, meal prep, school activities, outdoor fun, homework, newborn care, and more. I've worked with kids who have ADHD, autism, and Gestalt Language. I've got my CPR certification and background check done, and I'm happy to be seen if you'd like. I've also had some experience caring for children through Kiddie Corp, nannying, and tutoring reading. I love spending time with kids doing things like playing outside, learning new things, acting out stories, puzzles, crafts, and adventure walks. Most of all, I enjoy helping kids develop their minds in a safe and supportive space. The most important thing is making sure the child feels loved and safe, and that the family feels supported. I'd really enjoy building positive relationships with families in a caring environment. I am new to this app. But have been working for Care for 4 years :)

Maria $16 per hour for 1 child

My personal experience as a caregiver starts with helping my older sister with my nephew’s care while I was in my 20’s, then raising my own three daughters, who are now decent young ladies. I understand the amount of work required to raise children specially when in nowdays society requires mothers to help support the household, which is why I am interested in lending a helping hand and while enjoying doing what I know the most of, caring for children. However, caregiving for children is not my only area of expertice, I as well have some experience with seniors, since between 2[removed] I had to take care of a family member that required full time care due to inability of taking care of basic needs from brushing teeth, meal preping for specific nutritional needs, maintaining all areas and utensils clean to avoid infections, feeding through feeding tube and some other activities. Because of this, I have completed some hours of training to work as a Senior Care Giver.

"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."
