Nydia Chicago
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, My name is Nydia. I'm a transplant from California and attended SFSU to become a teacher. I've worked with Jumpstart in Hunters Point, SF and focused on helping elementary students catch up on their literacy proficiency. I later worked with the YMCA's after school programs. I moved to Chicago in 2011 and worked at Urban Child Academy as an assistant as well as part of the Spanish Immersion program (I am bilingual in Spanish). I began the Day Of The Dead ofrenda there and also helped young minds feel comfortable being in a school setting before they ventured off to kindergarten. Although I am no longer in education, I valued my time in all of the vast settings and learned that each child is different and caring for them is never a one size fits all task. I volunteer at One Tail At a Time and in the past with Alive Rescue. I had the privilege of adopting a sweet street pup I named Walter and had him for 8 years before he passed of old age last September. I hope to be a relief to a family a few days a week and offer my help. I live in Logan Square but do have a car and have lived in Chicago for 15 Winters so I definitely feel comfortable and confident in any neighborhood. I work in hospitality during the evening but with advance notice can also be available for date nights. Thank you for reading my blurb and hope to be of help to a family !

"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
