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.

Hello my name is Bella, I am 20 years old and I am a sophomore at the University of Loyola Chicago. I love and adore kids, I have been working with them since I was 13 years old from nannying to camps. I have experience with all ages, but I have the most in ages 6-12 as I used to nanny a family for a few years who had kids between those ages. My major is social work and so working with kids is something that I am grateful and excited to do for my career and passion. As well as having experience with kids I have experience with pets as well as I have some of my own, have watched other people, and worked at a doggy daycare. I also have experience with household chores.

"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)."
