As a responsible, calm, and patient 24-year-old babysitter, I have 4 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from babies to teenagers. I'm fluent in American Sign Language, English, and Spanish, making me well-equipped to communicate with diverse families. I'm comfortable working with children who have special needs, including anxiety disorders, autism, deafness, food allergies, OCD, physical limitations, tics, visual impairments, asthma, ADHD, ODD, CD, and epilepsy. My skills include reading, language, crafting, music, and games, and I'm happy to assist with homework. I'm also comfortable with pets, cooking, chores, and have a reliable car and driver's license. With an Associate of Arts degree, I'm dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing environment for your children. I'd be excited to meet your family and discuss how I can contribute to your childcare needs. I look forward to working with you and your family!

Maria did a great job watching our 7 month old!

Booked by 3 families in Chicago Ridge, IL

Hi - My name is Nancy and I've been working with kids since I was 19 and love it. I started by helping my aunt, she used to babysit from home and I really enjoyed helping her. I have two big boys now, one of 19 years old and the other one of 14 years old. Over the last few years, I've worked on babysitting for date nights and on my days off. Primarily with infants and toddlers, but I love kids of all ages. If it's nice out, I like to take the kids outside, but if not, I like to play with them, reading, singing, and for older kids I like to do some crafting too.

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
