Sophia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sophia, and I've been a resident of Chicago for a year now. I'm 28 years old and currently looking for a part-time or full-time nanny position. I have had experience with babysitting and nannying throughout high school, college, and beyond. I've cared for children of all ages—from infants to kids ages 2–9, and even preteens and teens (10–15 years old). As I don’t currently have a car in the city, I’m primarily seeking an in-home nanny position, ideally caring for an infant during standard work hours. I'm also comfortable with pets and happy to help with housekeeping tasks. I genuinely love cleaning and organizing! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to set up a call. I’d love to connect!

"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."
