Evangeline $20 per hour for 1 child

I have worked with children for more than 8 years, from babysitting to volunteer programs to camp counseling. I bring joy, fun, structure, and attention to detail to my work with children, making the experience enjoyable and the adjustment smooth for kids and parents alike. My primary experience is with children ages 2-14, but I have occasionally worked with younger and older children, as well. Furthermore, I have more than 10 years of experience with pet sitting, becoming a reliable sitter and walker for families with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and other household animals. I provide more-than-minimum attention, care, and love, making sure that pets feel safe and cared for while owners are away.

Lucy $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Lucy, and I’m 24 years old! I have lots of experience in childcare, as I grew up in a big family and have been consistently babysitting and nannying since I was 12 years old. I like to provide a safe and nurturing environment while encouraging creativity and play. My most recent nanny experiences have been with children aged 0-3, but I’m comfortable with any age. I also have held jobs in elementary schools for the past 3 years as a sign language interpreter, so I am able to assist any communication frustrations with sign, if that’s something the family is interested in. I’m currently looking for full time work. I live in Logan Square, but I have a car so I’m able to travel further if need be. Please let me know if you have any questions! I’m excited for the opportunity to work with your family!

Eric $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Eric — a medical student with years of hands-on childcare experience in both family and hospital settings. I’ve cared for kids of all ages, from newborns to teens, and have been an uncle since 14. I spent five years at the University of Chicago Medical Center cuddling and comforting babies in the NICU and engaging children in the playroom, then volunteered at Lurie Children’s Hospital supporting pediatric cardiac patients. Now, I help coordinate Rush University’s Buddies & Cuddlers program, training and scheduling volunteers who comfort infants and children. I also mentor high school students through my nonprofit, Sneakers to Scrubs, helping them explore medical careers. I love helping kids feel safe, calm, and happy — whether feeding an infant, reading stories, or organizing activities. I’m CPR and First Aid trained, fully vaccinated, and bring a dependable, caring presence to every family I work with.

Courtney $13 per hour for 1 child

I am a mother of four. They are all grown up now, but I’ve had a lifetime of caring for children and children have remained my passion. Outside of my own, I come from a large family, and I have cared for kids of friends’ as well. I’m looking to care for a couple of children from my home in Westchester. I’m understanding and knowledgeable of the growth and fundamental stages of children from infant through school age. I look forward to connecting with you and building a thriving relationship that focuses on the concern and wellbeing of your family.

"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)."
