Marsha J $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a former television journalist, field producer, and news team manager with national and regional experience in multiple cities at major news companies. I have earned a bachelor’s and master’s degree, so far. I was awarded an honorary doctorate for extensive community-focused digital media programming. . I left it all to form a youth-focused nonprofit in Chicago. After helping youth and young parents with their children, I recently decided I would try being a nanny/child caregiver when another nanny told me I would be great at it because of my nurturing personality, skills and love for children & youth. Babysitting was my first job. I grew up babysitting regularly for my neighbors, family friends, and even my teachers’ children. I also love cleaning homes and businesses. I am the daughter of an amazing mother who cleaned at a large hospital. I joined the staff to raise money for college. I know that having a busy family with children plus cleaning a home can be challenging. I love to utilize my large repertoire of skills and experiences to help others do better in life. I believe this Urban Sitter will be a good opportunity for me to grow as I help families and help to nurture and teach children while fulfilling a need for parents. Parents can breathe easy because their children will be safe, nurtured, and taught by me…a person who will genuinely do all I can to ensure their children are safe, nurtured, protected, and cared for by a sitter who takes her job seriously. I do speak Spanish at an intermediate level. I studied in Cuernavaca, Mexico. I understand as long as it is spoken at a slower speed. I love seeing precious children and teens grow and learn. Playing a role in this process brings me joy.

Booked by 1 family in Hickory Hills, IL

Hi my name Susan. I am offering child care services. I have experience working with newborns to 10 year olds. My first job (when I was 15) was taking care of 2 kids in my home. I enjoyed it so much I was sure I would have a career in child care. My senior year of high school I Nannied for 3 kids, all under the age of 10. A couple of years after I stopped nanny the kids, my nephew was born and I became his secondary care giver . All of my friends have children as well and I’ve gained experience through them as well. I currently work with a family of two boys ages 4 and 7. I have been working for them for 2.5 years. I currently create schedules, laundry, cleaning, and creative activities. My strengths are remaining calm and patient in high pressure and creative problem solving. I pride myself in becoming an addition to the family and helping them stay organized and on schedule. I am a strong believer in learning at a young age. I would offer learning a second language, learning numbers, colors, and shapes, as long as having intellectual conversations and developmental experiences to help your child be the smartest cookie! I am bilingual and know a little bit of sign language since my niece uses it as a form of communication. I am willing to teach kids Spanish. The current family and I took a CPR course at home but do not have a certificate to show for it.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
