Maria $16 per hour for 1 child

My personal experience as a caregiver starts with helping my older sister with my nephew’s care while I was in my 20’s, then raising my own three daughters, who are now decent young ladies. I understand the amount of work required to raise children specially when in nowdays society requires mothers to help support the household, which is why I am interested in lending a helping hand and while enjoying doing what I know the most of, caring for children. However, caregiving for children is not my only area of expertice, I as well have some experience with seniors, since between 2[removed] I had to take care of a family member that required full time care due to inability of taking care of basic needs from brushing teeth, meal preping for specific nutritional needs, maintaining all areas and utensils clean to avoid infections, feeding through feeding tube and some other activities. Because of this, I have completed some hours of training to work as a Senior Care Giver.

Monique $18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Oak Park, IL

Hi - My name is Asia, but I go by Monique. I am a caring, dependable, and fun caregiver with years of hands-on childcare experience. I have been watching children since I was 9 years old and truly enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and feel supported. From ages 13-15, I cared for twins from birth until they were 3 years old, along with their younger brother from birth until age 2. This gave me strong experience with infants, toddlers, routines, and caring for multiple children at once. I always make it my priority to keep children happy, safe, and engaged while also making sure they complete what they need to do, whether that is meals, naps, homework, chores, or daily routines. I know how to make everyday tasks fun while still keeping structure. I can also cook, clean, and keep the home tidy and organized. I respect every parent’s wishes and routines, and I work hard to create a trustworthy environment where families feel comfortable and confident leaving their children in my care.

"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)."
