Yessica 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! New on this app so I have no reviews yet. Please give me the opportunity. I’ve always been very family oriented. Have been babysitting my 10 year old goddaughter since she was a new born as well as my nieces & nephew that are under the age of 5. I babysit my cousins & friends kids when I’m needed. I’ve always been good with children & love to play, color, read and interact with them. I’d like to become a permanent trustworthy sitter to where it’s comfortable for the kids and build that relationship!

“Yessica has watched my two children. She is caring, responsible, and reliable. The kids adore her, and we feel totally at ease knowing they are with her! Thank you for all you do!”

Hello, my name is Angelica. I was born and raised in Chicago. I am mother of 2 myself and love my daughters with all my being. I consider myself to be a very patient person. I think that’s something that’s important when it comes to being a caregiver and not only that, I enjoy being able to connect with kids and help them grow and succeed as they get older. I have a lot of experience when it comes to kids, it is something that I enjoy doing and I wouldn’t want it any other way.

Booked by 3 families in Western Springs, IL

Hi! I'm an experienced caregiver and a mom of three young children. My youngest just started full-day pre-k, so I am looking to add care giving hours. I enjoy playing and laughing with elementary-age kids. I have experience with newborns and infants, and currently care for a 4 month-old part-time. I enjoy creating playful, nurturing environments where kids can grow and express themselves. I'm reliable, compassionate, and available for daytime, evening, and overnight care to help your family feel supported.

“Patricia has been amazing to our little girl. She is on time, responds fast, asks plenty of questions to make sure she is following your routines. Plays and reads to our baby. She is a great caregiver. ❤️”

Kayla $27 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kayla and I have been in the ABA therapy field for past three years, working in clinic and in home, 1:1 with children on the spectrum. In clinic, I took on a curriculum coordinator position, created specialized courses and curriculums for students and staff designed for multiple age groups and abilities. I am currently in school working on become a pediatric speech therapist and finishing my BS within the next two years! I have had multiple families I would babysit for with children as young as 6 months. I have been involved in children’s ministry and leadership experience in youth ministry. I love laughing and finding joy in all of the small details! I enjoy being outdoors even if it’s for a small walk around the block! Hola!

Disfruto estar al aire libre, incluso si es para una pequeña caminata alrededor de la manzana!

Taryn $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Taryn, I’m 20 and I am very passionate about working with children (and I love pets!). I currently attend the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, and I’m hoping to find a family that is looking for a nanny/frequent sitter. I’m currently in Knoxville TN, but will be in Darien IL during the summer and other breaks. I’m a sophomore and I’m studying to become a pediatric occupational therapist. I have a deep understanding of child development and the importance of fostering a positive and nurturing environment for children. I am committed to providing high-quality care that promotes growth, development, and learning for all the children I work with. I also have a younger brother who has autism and intermittent explosive disorder. I have spent countless hours working with him, learning about his needs and how to provide the best possible care for him. I have developed the patience, empathy, and the skills that are necessary to provide excellent care for children with a wide range of unique needs. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old, and I worked at an after school daycare program at the Lagrange Highlands Elementary/Middle school with kindergarten-Middle schoolers for a year, before going to college. This past summer I was a full-time nanny for an 11 year old girl with some special needs, where I would drive her to her activities, ride bikes, swim, paint, bake desserts, make slime, and do other fun actives with. I also made her meals, walked their two dogs, and did various chores/maintenance cleaning each day. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident about leaving your children with a nanny/sitter, and I am more than happy to stop by to meet you and your kiddos before being hired. Thank you for considering me as your nanny. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and your 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)."
