Booked by 1 family in Cicero, IL

Hi! My name is Sarah Elizabeth, and I am a recent Masters graduate looking for child-care opportunities until I start my full-time accounting job in October. I will be available starting August 10th. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. However, I will not have a car once I move to the city. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands.

Ajia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ajia, and I’ve spent over three years working directly with children as both a Teacher’s Assistant and an Instructor with After School Matters. Those experiences gave me the chance to work with kids of different ages, personalities, and learning styles — from helping younger students with reading and crafts to guiding older kids through creative projects and team-based activities. As a Teacher’s Assistant, I learned how to create structured, positive, and engaging classroom environments. I helped manage lessons, supported students one-on-one, and assisted with classroom organization and supervision. It taught me how to balance patience with leadership, and how to make sure every child feels included and understood. In my role as an After School Matters Instructor, I took on more responsibility by designing and leading activities that encouraged creativity, teamwork, and self-expression. I developed lesson plans, managed group dynamics, and ensured a safe space for every student to learn and have fun. I loved seeing how kids gained confidence and developed new skills over time. What I enjoy most about working with kids is how rewarding it is to watch them grow — whether it’s mastering a new skill, expressing themselves more freely, or simply feeling comfortable and happy in their environment. I bring that same care and enthusiasm into babysitting. I’m attentive, reliable, and safety-conscious, but I also know how to make things fun and engaging through games, crafts, and conversations. I’m also certified in maintaining safe supervision practices and understand the importance of good communication with both children and parents. I always aim to create a nurturing, trustworthy environment where parents feel confident and kids feel supported. Overall, my background has prepared me to not just “watch” kids, but to connect with them, support their growth, and keep them safe and happy at the same time. Babysitting, for me, isn’t just a job — it’s an opportunity to make a positive impact in a child’s day and help parents feel at ease knowing their kids are in good hands

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
