Erica $25 per hour for 1 child

Fun loving, energetic, creative, responsible, and experienced care taker, looking for any occasional, part-time, or full-time opportunities that are a great fit! Took time off from my real estate career to spend time doing what I truly love and am passionate about - taking care of kids and helping them grow! Sports fanatic, who loves dancing, singing, art projects, traveling, cooking, baking and animals! For the last 5 years I’ve been a Nanny & House Manager for 3 different families, working with children ranging from newborn to 12 years old! Most recently, I just finished a 2 year long position working for a family with 3 children, who are currently 1 years old, 4 years old and 6 years old. I was with them since the oldest two were 2 and 4, and have been caring for the 1 year old since she was born! Very flexible schedule, live in Logan Square, have a car and absolutely willing to use it! Open to discussing any opportunities or answering questions, feel free to reach out!

Tania $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I'm Tania. I recently moved to Chicago in July, and I'm 20 years old and bilingual. I adore animals—my roommate has a cat, and I just welcomed a new kitten into my apartment. Back home, I have a large dog named Riley who I miss everyday. I love meeting and connecting with new furballs, and I would love to work with your little ones and fur babies. I consider myself outgoing, kind, and passionate about what I do. As a college student, I bring a fun and active energy to my interactions. I enjoy arts and crafts, cooking, and baking, and I’d love to share these activities with the kids! Baking together can be such a fun way to bond and create something delicious. Although I’m new to babysitting professionally, I have experience caring for my niece and nephew back home. I started looking after my nephew when he was just one year old, which taught me a lot about patience and creativity in keeping little ones engaged. I’m excited to apply that experience in my babysitting role here, ensuring a positive and memorable experience for your little ones. I'm excited to create a nurturing and fun environment where kids can thrive, whether through play, learning, or simply having a good time together.

Diamond Ngoctran $30 per hour for 1 child

I pride myself on being a dedicated caregiver who treats every family like my own. I specialize in early childhood care (0-5 years), where I take the initiative to handle meal prep and cleaning to ensure the home runs smoothly. My life experience is extensive; for over 15 years, I have been a primary caregiver for my brother with Down syndrome, which has taught me patience and advocacy. My background also includes caring for elderly family members, where I learned that respect is the highest priority. I am hardworking, reliable, and ready to support your family's needs.

"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)."
