Khwezi $15 per hour for 1 child

I have over two years of childcare experience as an au pair, as well as an additional six months of experience as a nanny. I genuinely love working with children and enjoy creating a safe, caring, positive, and fun environment where they can learn and grow. My childcare duties have included preparing meals and snacks, helping children get ready for the day, keeping their rooms and play areas organized, doing children’s laundry, planning fun and educational activities, reading with them, helping with homework, supervising playtime, and following their daily routines. I am patient, responsible, attentive, and always make sure the children’s safety and well-being come first. Outside of childcare, I enjoy reading and have a strong interest in makeup and beauty. I’m creative and enjoy expressing myself through makeup. Recently, I have also started enjoying working out and staying active, which has become a new hobby of mine.

Katie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Katie, and I’m a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) with an MSW from Columbia University. I’m based in Chicago, pursuing a career in pediatric medical social work, while looking for part-time and full-time childcare opportunities in the meantime! I have years of experience working with children in schools, hospitals, and clinical settings, including extensive experience supporting children with developmental disabilities and complex needs. Through my social work training and hands-on experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of child development and bring a warm, patient, creative, and compassionate approach to working with kids. I’m comfortable caring for children with a wide range of personalities, abilities, and needs, and I’m passionate about creating environments where children feel safe, supported, and able to have fun. I’m also experienced with pet care and household help. I’m reliable, attentive, responsible, and genuinely love working with children. I’d love to chat and learn more about what your family is looking for!

Ashley $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have over 10 years of childcare experience in clinical, school, and play-based settings. As a former Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), I have a special passion for working with children with special needs and hope to become a BCBA or open my own clinic one day. I love creating fun, engaging experiences through arts and crafts, baking, theme days, and outdoor adventures while encouraging less screen time. My biggest priority as a nanny is making sure every child feels safe, loved, and supported. I strive to create an environment where children feel comfortable being themselves, making mistakes, and learning as they grow. ❤️

Valentina $23 per hour for 1 child

I am a responsible, patient, and dedicated caregiver with several years of experience working with children of different ages and needs. I have worked full-time in a daycare with newborns, toddlers, and Pre-K children, supporting their development through play, routines, and learning activities. I also have experience caring for children with special needs, including epilepsy, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness. In addition to my childcare experience, I worked as a full-time caregiver for seniors, where I learned the importance of empathy, responsibility, and creating a positive daily routine. These experiences have helped me develop strong organizational skills and the ability to handle different situations with care and patience. I am bilingual (Spanish and English), and I love sharing this skill with children by teaching them simple words, songs, and phrases in another language if parents are interested. I truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel supported in a fun and safe environment. Families describe me as reliable, communicative, and creative—I enjoy planning activities such as outdoor play, arts and crafts, music, and educational games. My goal as a caregiver is to provide a safe, loving, and engaging space for children, while also supporting families by being flexible, trustworthy, and attentive to their needs.

Britanya $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! Hi! My name is Britney, and I’m 25 years old. I graduated from Columbia College Chicago with a Bachelor's degree in Illustration. I would describe myself as optimistic, creative, kind, and a little silly. My long-term goals are to pursue a variety of artistic career opportunities and someday become a mother myself. I enjoy working with children because I love being a positive role model and helping them learn, grow, and feel supported. I began babysitting for friends and family, which led me to work at a daycare as a Teacher's Assistant and Floater. These experiences helped me develop strong leadership, communication, and patience skills. In my free time, I enjoy drawing, playing video games, and spending time with friends and family. One thing families should know about me is that I highly value respect, honesty, and open communication. I strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for every child I work with.

"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)."
