Hello my name is Yancy. I recently graduated from SIUC with a BA in psychology. I have taken courses in child development. I have also worked at a daycare. I was a lead teacher to a classroom or about 15-20 students ranging from the ages of 3-5. But I also have experience working with infants and other ages. I am CPR certified.

Hello, My name is Dorah and I am a senior at Saint Mary's College with a Physics major and a Philosophy minor. I would love to help out in any way that I can and I love children; that is why I am on UrbanSitter. I am a daughter of 5 hailing from a southern suburb of Chicago. I have taken care of my younger sister in her younger years and I take care of my grandfather whenever I am home. I am very experienced in taking care of children of all ages and have a good bit of my experience sitting a 3 and 7 year old in the south bend area with past experience sitting as young as 2 years old. I also have experience sitting a 9 year old non-verbal girl with autism. Please let mw know if you have anymore questions and I would love to talk!

Hi! My name is Rita and I am a dedicated and highly experienced nanny with over 22 years of hands on childcare experience. Caring for children has truly become a lifelong passion of mine. I am a proud mom of two daughters, 20 and 21 so I understand the importance of creating a safe, loving and structured environment where children can grow and thrive. Over the past 13 years, I have worked with families long term, typically staying for 3+ years which has allowed me to build trusting relationships with both children and parents. My background includes everything from infant care to supporting school aged children with routines, activities and emotional development. I also love incorporating learning into everyday activities and have experience teaching Spanish to children in a fun and engaging way. I especially enjoy planning arts and crafts and other child enrichment activities that encourage creativity and development. I’m known for being reliable, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy creating engaging, nurturing experiences for the kids I care for. I treat every child like family. I would love the opportunity to support your family! I have references available upon request!

Greetings! My name is Daniela — I’m 28 years old and have been nannying for over 7 years now. I’ve worked with families in both short- and long-term roles, and I take my responsibilities seriously. I believe caring for children requires not just reliability and patience, but also genuine care and respect for both the kids and their families. I love engaging little ones in activities that support their development — from puzzles and reading to homework help and play that encourages curiosity. A couple fun facts about me: I’m a big country music lover and a proud Cubs fan.
