I have a Master’s degree in Teaching and a strong background in childcare, with hands-on experience caring for children from infancy through early childhood. I was a nanny for one family, caring for their child from birth to age 3, and I have also cared for multiple children in a family setting from birth through toddler years. In addition, I have experience as a substitute teacher working with students in grades K–8. I have also raised three boys of my own and taken care off all three of my grandchildren from infancy through age 3. I currently Nanny for a wonderful family from 3-6, and I'm looking to fill my open days/times. I am patient, calm, and dependable, with a strong focus on safety, consistency, and age-appropriate development. I build trusting relationships with both children and parents and strive to create a nurturing, structured environment where children feel secure and can thrive.

Hi - My name is Krystle and I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a nanny and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, attending extracurricular activities, crafts and homework help. Currently I care for 3 children (Newborn, 1 & 3 years old) full-time. I’m full-time with my current family until mid-late April. My availability will be limited until then. I can provide references from previous families and current family. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs. I look forward to working with your family! ✔️ Vaccinated ✔️ CPR Certified ✔️ Drivers License & Insurance ✔️ Newborn Experience ✔️ School-Age Experience ✔️ Kosher Kitchen Experience

Krystle was a super attentive and caring nanny for my 3 yr old! My daughter loved her, our schedules no longer aligned however, I highly recommend her!

Since the age of 14, I've been passionate about childcare, starting with training at my local library. I stayed active throughout my four years of high school by doing gymnastics. In high school I also took 2 full years of Early Childhood Studies including a preschool class where we did lesson planning and taught preschoolers all subjects.By 15, I began working at a restaurant in arlington heights, where I stayed for a bit over three years. During this time, I also took small courses in childcare and realized my true calling was to become a nanny. I’m bilingual and enjoy teaching the little ones a bit! In my free time I like to read on my mini kindle ipad.I also gained experience in retail and Athleta and am now in my first year of college, majoring in psychology.

$17 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Frank (but I go by Frankie). I am a college student offering babysitting services. I really enjoy working with grade school kids. I am currently working at an after-school program where I work with over sixty kids. I like to make a safe and positive environment where kids can have a fun time. I can help them with homework, plan some fun activities to do, take them to a local park, or watch a movie. I'm a-ok with pets (mostly dogs and cats). As of right now, I am not CPR certified, but I'm trying to get my certificate. I'm in my second year of college, so I don't have a degree (yet). Also, I have a drivers license, but I don't have a car. I have reliable transportation to and from homes, but I am not available for child transportation and will not drive family vehicles. However, I can walk them if schools/activities are in walking distance. That's about it. Feel free to reach out whenever you need a babysitter. Leave a review and give some feedback and hopefully we can work with each in the future. Thank you so much for reading. Take care! :)

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
