$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Emily, and I am currently a senior in high school, play volleyball. I have been caring for children since I was 15 years old and truly enjoy working with kids. I am responsible, patient, caring, and dependable. I can help with homework, prepare simple meals, play games, do arts and crafts, and keep children safe and entertained. I am bilingual in Spanish and English and would be happy to help children practice Spanish as well. I currently work in housekeeping, so I also have experience with cleaning, organizing, and maintaining a tidy home. I have my own vehicle and can provide transportation for children or adults to appointments, school, activities, or other places when needed. I am comfortable helping families with different needs and always respect their routines and household rules. I look forward to finding a family I can build a trusting and positive relationship with!

“Emily has worked for me in the past and she is very responsible, caring, and reliable. She is great with children, very patient, and always makes sure they are safe and comfortable. She is trustworthy, respectful, and takes her responsibilities seriously. I would definitely recommend her to any family looking for a dependable babysitter.”

Aysha 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Aysha. I’m an undergraduate at DePaul University pursing a psychology degree, but outside of that and I’ve been working in childcare for 3-4 years. Since high school (2019) I’ve been tutoring children ages 12-18 from everything from algebra to trigonometry and even some language classes. Directly after graduating from highschool I’ve worked as an assistant teacher for It Takes a Village Family of schools where I was an assistant teacher/after school mentor for 3rd and fourth graders. Here’s where I recovered most of my early childhood learning credits as well as where I became CPR/First Aid Certified and received certificates for working with older youth. Due to commuting times however, I decided to work in more part-time daycare positions. That were more college schedule friendly. For around a year now I’ve been working in daycare facilities through an app called Tandem. Working with smaller children comes more naturally to be (being an eldest of 5) and toddler-aged children and I follow of routine/pattern which I find works well with my natural abilities. Through tandem I also took classes in preventing sudden infant death and shaken baby syndrome. By working with Tandem I am also required to be consistently up to date with my TDAP, COVID, and Flu vaccines. Outside of childcare I would call myself very math/science inclined. Currently I’m a statistics tutor at DePaul but I’m also a French minor and would love to share my love of language/culture with your child. But I’m also a big fan of arts/crafts, including painting/drawing, so whatever your kid is into, I’m sure we can find common ground in some way. My plan after college is to become a child psychologist so this is all really in my field of interest! Overall I consider myself a very dynamic caregiver with a lot of experience and ambition and potential to improve. And if chosen, I would love to be an addition to your family’s dynamic or even just help to lighten your load on a date night. Please ask me for my reference list or inquire more, I’m always happy to share!

“Aysha is great to work with. She is very punctual, responsive in her communication. She keeps our daughter very engaged with reading, painting and other forms of art (which she's very good at!). We would highly recommend her. ”

Kiana 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Cicero, IL

I am a nursing student with a background in the medical field as a CNA and have worked as a professional in a hospital setting. I am bubbly, hardworking, reliable and flexible. I would also be willing to help with any household chores, pets, etc.

“Kiana was wonderful. My little one is an average active toddler, yet Kiana was so gentle and patient with him. She read him read books and participated in other activities including meal time. When I came home from work, the house was clean just as I had left it. Which was a shocker because I know with toddlers it seems like you clean up one thing, but they’re into something else😩. But Because the house was clean I was able to really sit and breathe for a second as he napped. Leaving work to do house work is tiresome, so thank you so much Kiana for everything. ”

"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)."
