$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Smithton, IL

I come from a big family in the US so I've spent a lot of time around my nieces and nephews helping to wrangle, watch, and love on them. I have a naturally calm and playful spirit, I pick up on the energy and mood of the child and also adults so I can adjust to their needs. I'm strong and active so I can handle a lot and I value effective communication so we can understand one another and make sure we'll all on the same page. I love entertaining kids with various activities--mind, body, and spirit!

“We highly recommend Madi for any family looking for a caring, dependable, and energetic caregiver. She cared for our three children (5yr old son who has an IEP, as well as our 8 and 9yr old daughters) and consistently met each of their unique needs. She brought incredible energy, keeping the children engaged with fun, creative, and age-appropriate activities while maintaining a structured, supportive environment. She was especially attentive to our son's individual needs, demonstrating patience, understanding, and a willingness to work with the strategies that helped him thrive. Her calm, encouraging approach made a meaningful difference in his daily routine. She also built wonderful relationships with our daughters, balancing their different personalities and interests while ensuring everyone felt included, supported, and cared for. She was reliable, professional, communicative, and always ready to make the day both productive and enjoyable. We recommend without hesitation!!”

"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."

"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)."
