Litzy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Litzy and I have been a nanny/babysitter in the Chicago area for 7 years helping families which has helped me gain the experience that I obtain. I currently live in Chicago. I started babysitting when I was seventeen years old and started nannying in 2017. I have worked with children of all ages from newborns up to middle school ages and I've worked as a child care worker in Lombard working with infants and toddlers for three years. In my most previous job I gained experience with special needs children (ADHD & Autism). My favorite part of being a childcare worker is being able to explore new interests in children. I love nature and going to the park,libraries, zoo and museums. Previous employers could describe me as patient, punctual, and a self starter. I can provide a set schedule with your child's age group that consists of Reading,Writing,Math, Arts and crafts, and movement exercises. Aside from this I can help with homework,potty training, tummy time for babies, and introducing solids. I speak English and Spanish fluently. I am up to date with all vaccinations.I am CPR and First-Aid Certified, a non-smoker, and have a clean background and driving record if driving is needed.

Hi! I’m Journie! 💕 I’m a college student, athlete, and future teacher who loves staying active and spending time with kids. I played basketball at Morton College and have wrestled since sixth grade, including competing in freestyle wrestling at Fargo and receiving a wrestling scholarship. Outside of sports, I love being outdoors, exploring nature, reading, and singing. I’m also studying Early Childhood Education because I hope to become a teacher one day. I’ve been working with children for almost three years as a kids counselor at my local park district. I spent two years with the Mavericks program, working with K–3rd graders, and this year I work with Trailblazers, working with 3rd–6th graders. I help supervise kids, organize activities, play sports like basketball and soccer, and even help run sports programs at the park district. I’m energetic, patient, responsible, and love creating a safe and fun environment where kids can be themselves!

"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)."
