Erin $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Erin. I am a child care worker based in Chicago and I am looking for a new family to nanny (full-time or part-time). I have around 10 years of experience in child care, and working with kids is one of my greatest passions! I currently work at a daycare, but I am looking to get back in to nannying/babysitting. I am also a dance teacher on the weekends! I am very flexible and and looking to start as soon as possible! Outside of child care, I am an artist, so I love to do activities involving dancing, singing, instruments, and art projects. I also love to incorporate outdoor activities and nature in to my care as much as possible!

Isabella $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Isabella, I am located in Chicago and I am sophomore in college! I love being a babysitter!! I have grown up with such a large family, so babysitting comes naturally! I have had experience of babysitting since I was 15 years old. I have watched 3-10-year-olds! I have worked and volunteered at summer camps and cared for 4, 5, 6 and 7-year-olds! I have a dog at home, so my love for dogs is so strong! I also have nannied for a 3 and 6-year-old boys and loved it! I would help with simple chores around the home like laundry and cleaning up after the boys, as well as organization from their pantry to clothes in their closets, as well as running errands like quick grocery runs! We would take walks to the park and have so much fun exploring. Whether I am assisting with light housekeeping or helping with carpooling, I strive to be a dependable partner in your daily routine. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted part of your family's life and watching your children thrive.

Jenna $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have nanny experience caring for children ages 1 and 3, and I’m comfortable with toddlers and preschool-age kids. I help with daily routines like meals, naps, and bedtime, along with light meal prep and keeping play areas tidy. I enjoy outdoor and nature play, arts and crafts, reading, and imaginative play, and I prefer to keep screen time minimal. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and good with keeping a consistent routine.

"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)."
