Gabriela Chicago
$20 per hour for 1 child

As a dedicated and loving single mother of a 12-year-old boy, I have a deep understanding of children's needs and the importance of a nurturing environment. With over several years of experience caring for children, I have successfully managed the care of up to six kids simultaneously, ensuring their safety, well-being, and enjoyment. My day typically begins at 8AM, where I take pride in providing a structured routine, including drop-offs at daycare and school. I am passionate about creating a positive and engaging atmosphere for children, and my neighbors often sought my help for special occasions, highlighting my reliability and commitment. I enjoy cleaning and organizing, which not only keeps my space tidy but also helps me manage my time effectively. I am available for a background check and look forward to the opportunity to contribute to the happiness and development of your children. I am a caring nanny with experience in childcare and household management. I provide attentive care for children, maintain a clean home, and cook a variety of meals, specializing in American and Mexican cuisine. My goal is to create a nurturing environment where children can thrive.

Rani Chicago
$19 per hour for 1 child

I love children and am a child at heart myself. An artist, I paint, sing in a band, write, and have acted in independent films. I have primarily supported myself as a freelance graphic designer, and have been self-employed for many years, so I have vast experiences being able to handle multiple responsibilities, urgent needs from my clients (in this case, little munchkins), and be cool under pressure. I'm also a mom myself, though my own little munchkins are grown and on their own now (and taller than me!). I am very gentle, organized, and fun and have an empathetic nature. And because I otherwise work freelance, my schedule is flexible. I would so love to help care for kids near me, and would happily lead them in projects, too, or come up with creative ideas on how we could pass the time (aka--not on screens). I have led classes in drawing and painting for both kids and adults for years as well, and would have fun teaching or leading instruction in art-making or crafts (I'm also a crafter--crochet, sewing, weaving, air-dry clay, etc.) I have a cat and have also had dogs, so I'm very comfortable with pet care. Basically, if you have little people in your home--or furry friends, too--I'm here to help!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
