Lucy Chicago
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Lucy, and I’m 24 years old! I have lots of experience in childcare, as I grew up in a big family and have been consistently babysitting and nannying since I was 12 years old. I like to provide a safe and nurturing environment while encouraging creativity and play. My most recent nanny experiences have been with children aged 0-3, but I’m comfortable with any age. I also have held jobs in elementary schools for the past 3 years as a sign language interpreter, so I am able to assist any communication frustrations with sign, if that’s something the family is interested in. I’m currently looking for full time work. I live in Logan Square, but I have a car so I’m able to travel further if need be. Please let me know if you have any questions! I’m excited for the opportunity to work with your family!

Michele Chicago
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Michele, and I'm in the Chicago area for babysitting. I help with housekeeping, meal prep, school activities, outdoor fun, homework, newborn care, and more. I've worked with kids who have ADHD, autism, and Gestalt Language. I've got my CPR certification and background check done, and I'm happy to be seen if you'd like. I've also had some experience caring for children through Kiddie Corp, nannying, and tutoring reading. I love spending time with kids doing things like playing outside, learning new things, acting out stories, puzzles, crafts, and adventure walks. Most of all, I enjoy helping kids develop their minds in a safe and supportive space. The most important thing is making sure the child feels loved and safe, and that the family feels supported. I'd really enjoy building positive relationships with families in a caring environment. I am new to this app. But have been working for Care for 4 years :)

"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
