Hi my name is Sooniti, I am a 28 year old single mom of 1. I am offering childcare, senior care and house keeping services. I have a 12 year old who is going on 30 lol. I have personal experience working with children. Children love being around me vice versa because I'm fun and they feel safe. I use to be a caregiver for a Company called Comfort Keepers. I use to care for older adults that have Dementia/Alzheimer's. I currently work for doctor's office Oak Street Health to assist older adults with getting healthcare services. I babysit my nieces, nephew, cousins etc. I make sure I do what is ask from parents to for their children. I am patient, creative/playful and responsible.

Takiya Chicago
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m Takiya, a current undergraduate student to become a physician assistant or physical therapist. Currently, I work at Shirley Ryan Ability lab as a rehabilitation technician for inpatient, so I help take care of patients of all ages. Additionally, I’m the oldest of 4 siblings (youngest is 3) and the oldest grandchild on both my mom and dad side. Therefore, I’ve been paid by family members often to babysit and I’ve also been referred to by my family members to help their peers! I enjoy cooking, tutoring, and creating a safe and fun environment for kids of all ages. I can also help with household responsibilities such as cleaning, running errands (I have a working car and have a license) laundry, etc.

Niles
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Arlington Heights, IL

Hi! I’m a graduate from Loyola University and am pursuing my Masters in Education. I’m offering child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve been working with children from the ages of 3 months to 13 years old for 6+ years now and have enjoyed every minute of it! I have years of experience in the school/classroom setting as well as babysitting for all different age levels. Working in these positions is a very fulfilling and rewards experience that taught me patience, creativity, and responsibility. Whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or simply offering a listening ear, each interaction I’ve had contributes to the love I have for my job and building that safe and nurturing environment!

Brianna has a sweet and nurturing nature that is immediately clear the second she walked in the door. Prior to the job, she was very communicative and responsive. She was professional and genuinely has a passion for spending time with kids.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
