Makela $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Makela, but most people call me Kela. I am currently completing my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education, and caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. I grew up in a childcare setting—my mother has owned and operated a home daycare in Chicago for over 20 years—so nurturing and supporting children has been part of my world from a young age. I have experience working with infants, toddlers, and school-age children, and I currently work as a mentor and youth advocate supporting teens and families. I love caregiving because it allows me to build meaningful relationships, support development, and create safe spaces where children feel seen, valued, and encouraged to learn through play. I’m patient, dependable, and creative. Outside of caregiving, I’m also a seamstress and fashion designer, which means I love bringing creativity, crafts, and imagination into daily activities. If chosen to work with your family, you can expect a caring, attentive, and engaged caregiver who truly enjoys helping children grow.

Meg $20 per hour for 1 child

I have been a childcare professional for 15+ years for all kinds of children from infants to families of five. My love for taking care of others and lightening their load motivates my work. I consider myself a sunny and generous person and it is my goal to make a profound positive impact on the lives of the families I care for. I aim to become an intuitive helper whose main goal is to provide a safe and loving environment for children to learn and develop. I care deeply about aiding children in their development physically, mentally, and emotionally through communication, nutritious eating, and enriching activities and play. It would be my pleasure to help out with any kind of childcare you are in need of!

Jennifer $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring, responsible, and patient childcare professional with 8 years of experience working with children. I have 6 years of experience caring for toddlers and 2 years of experience working with infants, which has helped me develop a strong understanding of children’s needs, routines, and development. Although I’m new to working as a private nanny, I’m excited to bring my childcare experience into a more personal setting where I can build a strong connection with the children and family I work with. I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and fun environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. I’m dependable, organized, and willing to be flexible with a family’s routine. I’m also comfortable around pets and happy to help with reasonable household tasks such as tidying up after the children, doing their laundry, preparing simple meals, and keeping their areas organized. I’m looking forward to finding a family where I can be a trustworthy and supportive part of their everyday lives.

"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)."
