$23 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Riverdale, IL

With 7 years of hands-on childcare experience and as a mom to a wonderful 4-year-old, I bring both professional knowledge and heartfelt understanding to every family I work with. I’m highly creative and artistic, and I love planning age-appropriate games, crafts, and activities that encourage learning, imagination, and confidence. I’ve supported many families with multiple children, so I’m comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and needs with patience and positivity. My personality is quirky, bubbly, and warm, which helps me quickly build strong connections with children while creating a safe, joyful environment. I believe in nurturing trust while setting healthy boundaries in a caring and compassionate way, helping children feel secure, respected, and supported as they grow.

“Manages temperaments and maintains energy, kindness and patience with 2 kids (ages 20 months and 5 months- not easy). Punctual, present & warm, her experience speaks for itself.”

Hi, my name is Mayra! I am currently offering childcare and housekeeping.I have started a degree in education and hope to finish soon! I began baby sitting for family members at 12 years old. At 18, I began working with school ages 5 and up in Sunday school. Eventually, I applied at a daycare at 19 and started in the infant room. Equipped with crucial knowledge and CPR classes, I am comfortable working with any age group. Crafts and fun activities are usually my favorite things to do with children. Household responsibilities I can handle include: cleaning, organizing, cooking, and running errands.

Hello! My name is Kassandra. I’m 23 years old and live in Evergreen Park, Illinois. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant and currently working toward my associate degree at Moraine Valley. Caring for others has always been a passion of mine, especially when it comes to children. I have hands-on childcare experience from working as a class leader at a daycare in Brookfield, where I cared for infants and toddlers from newborn to 2 years old. In addition, my background as a CNA has given me strong patient-care skills, including safety awareness, responsibility, and compassion. I truly love working with kids and believe they are the future, which is why I care for every child with patience, kindness, and love. I am also a big animal lover and feel comfortable around pets. Friends and families describe me as dependable, trustworthy, and attentive, so you can feel confident knowing your children are in caring and capable hands.

"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."

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)."
