Amani $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Amani, and I’m a dedicated and experienced childcare professional with over 13 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages from infants to school-aged children. I’m known for creating a safe, nurturing, and structured environment where children can thrive. I truly enjoy being a positive, consistent presence in a child’s life while supporting their emotional, social, and developmental growth. My approach combines patience, clear boundaries, and engaging activities that keep children learning while having fun. I have strong experience with daily routines, meal prep, school pick-ups/drop-offs, homework help, and planning age-appropriate activities. I also bring a unique touch to my care by incorporating creativity, organization, and thoughtful details into each day whether that’s preparing fun meals, planning outings, or creating calm and structured transitions. Families would describe me as reliable, detail-oriented, and a strong communicator. I take pride in being someone parents can trust and children feel comfortable with. I’m currently seeking a new opportunity where I can continue to provide high-quality care and become a valued extension of your family.

Julia $20 per hour for 1 child

I love children and pets. I really enjoy babysitting and entertaining kids. I know how to follow a strict schedule for younger children if required or create a fun plan for an exciting babysitting session. I am comfortable cooking, cleaning, feeding, and changing children, including changing diapers. I am also open to helping your children with homework or instruments. I have a drivers license and my own car, so I am able to travel to wherever you live. I have been taught to perform CPR and Heimlich on all ages including infants (was recertified this summer). I also took a safe sitters course through Suburban Hospital. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your children. If you would like to contact my references and/or previous families I would love to share their information with you.

"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)."
