Hi! I'm a DePaul University graduate with 10+ years of experience caring for children from infancy through the teen years as a nanny, babysitter, tutor, and violin teacher. I speak English, Spanish, Farsi, and Arabic, and have been a violinist for over 15 years. I have extensive experience with infants, toddlers, school-age children, and teens, including feeding, naps, developmental play, homework help, transportation, and bedtime routines. I'm also experienced caring for children and adults with special needs, including autism and developmental disabilities, and I strive to provide patient, individualized, and compassionate care. Beyond childcare, I have experience as a household manager and personal assistant, helping with meal prep, laundry, organization, errands, scheduling, light housekeeping, and keeping busy households running smoothly. I'm also comfortable caring for pets and can assist with feeding, walking, medications, and daily care. Families describe me as reliable, warm, organized, and proactive. I have my own reliable car, a clean driving record, am fully vaccinated (including COVID booster), and do not smoke. I'm available for occasional, part-time, full-time, long-term, short-term, overnight, and last-minute bookings. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and provide dependable, engaging, and attentive care for your children and home. ----- Booking Policies My time and budget is planned around the hours booked, so I ask that you honor payment for the entire booking, regardless if you come home early. I'm also generally flexible if you need me to stay later than scheduled as long as that is communicated to me. Cash or Zelle are my preferred payment methods. Tips are always appreciated but never expected. Thank you!

ONLY AVAILABLE FOR DATE NIGHTS & WEEKENDS! .......BUT ALSO......... Available for P/T mornings & early afternoon beginning this fall... Hey! I'm Jasmin and I'm currently a fulltime Nanny/Household Manager for a family with 3 kiddos. Set of twins aged 5 & their 8 yr old brother. I will be transitioning to PT this fall as they will all begin full day school programs. I began as Night Nurse right after twins birth being that I'm also a Full Spectrum Doula & LactationEducator. I have tons of energy to match their needs as well as accomplish household duties. My skills with Time Management coupled with my slight OCD make an outstanding combination for a busy family with small children who need structure and cleanliness. I am very versatile and adaptable. I have been with all ages and have many years of experience. I ensure that the children remain in a safe environment while learning at the same time. I am a very punctual and respectful individual. I am very good with organizing and implementing rules as well.

Jasmin was great! Kids loved her.

Hi! My name is Rita and I am a dedicated and highly experienced nanny with over 22 years of hands on childcare experience. Caring for children has truly become a lifelong passion of mine. I am a proud mom of two daughters, 20 and 21 so I understand the importance of creating a safe, loving and structured environment where children can grow and thrive. Over the past 13 years, I have worked with families long term, typically staying for 3+ years which has allowed me to build trusting relationships with both children and parents. My background includes everything from infant care to supporting school aged children with routines, activities and emotional development. I also love incorporating learning into everyday activities and have experience teaching Spanish to children in a fun and engaging way. I especially enjoy planning arts and crafts and other child enrichment activities that encourage creativity and development. I’m known for being reliable, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy creating engaging, nurturing experiences for the kids I care for. I treat every child like family. I would love the opportunity to support your family! I have references available upon request!

Rita is very friendly and good with kids. My 3.5 year old loved spending time with her. 10/10 wholeheartedly recommend!

"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)."
