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!

Jada Chicago
$27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Jada — a nurturing, organized career nanny with over eight years of experience in childcare. I truly enjoy working with children and am dedicated to supporting their growth—physically, emotionally, and mentally—while working in close partnership with their parents. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, and have a clean driving record. With an upbeat, creative spirit, I love staying active, learning new things, and encouraging kids to express themselves—especially through arts and crafts, one of my favorite activities. I strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where children can thrive. I also assist with meal prep (breakfast and lunch), prepping bottles (both formula and breastmilk), setting healthy daily routines (including naps and bedtime), and keeping things tidy while the kids rest—acting as a reliable extra set of hands for parents. My goal is to be a positive, dependable, and loving presence in a child’s life. I’d love the opportunity to connect and learn more about how I can support your family. Warmly, Jada

"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
