Booked by 11 families in Evanston, IL

I am an ECE major and infant nanny with a passion for the littles! I found an introduction into this path working as a babysitter for my infant and toddler aged nephews and cousins in highschool. While in school to obtain my bachelor’s, I have worked in clinics, in home, middle school, and as a lead teacher in a preschool! I love spending time at the beach, enjoying nature, or watching movies and cuddling with my two cats! I am comfortable feeding, changing, preparing meals, helping with academicsㅤ, light household work, and pets in the home!

“Summer was wonderful! We would love to have her over again.”

Hello family My name is Geveve I’m 35 years old and I have 11 years experience working with children I love working with children and have enjoyed long-term relationships with several families. I believe each child is special and I work to bring out the best in each of them. I have experience with babies as young as 3 days old, toddlers, school age kids and teenagers. Busy families with multiple kids is my speciality. I have a lot of patience and work well under pressure. Parents describe me as responsible, reliable and easy to work with. Kids say I'm fun and creative. I keep kids engaged with activities both indoors and out, my philosophy is I believe children learn best through music art craft socializing. I have a clean driving record and am CPR and AED certified. Thanks for taking the time to learn a little bit about me. I look forward to hearing from you.

“Geveve helped our family as our planned babysitter was sick--she accepted the job last minute and promptly arrived about an hour after booking. She jumped right in as a pro engaging with our 3 and 7 year old, they had a great evening together! Geveve was communicative and I would definitely book her for babysitting again!”

Hi, My name is Irina. I an a 2nd year nursing student. I bring toys, coloring books and balloons so that children don't get bored and have something new to wonder about and play with. It also helps with separation anxiety. I take my time to talk to them and explain questions they might have, or matters regarding discipline. I am familiar with being cautious when it comes to allergies. I have my driver's license and I am CPR certified. I am looking for occasional babysitting jobs. Thank you so much and I am looking forward to working for your family.

Booked by 18 families in Evanston, IL

My name is Greta, and I am a 26-year-old DePaul Graduate with a degree in Early Childhood Education and Bilingual Education. I have been babysitting since the age of 11. I have worked at an after-school program in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for four years. Here is where I gained experience with k4 students, teaching and playing while helping bridge the gap despite social inequalities. I also worked as a full time POD teacher during the pandemic. I student taught in CPS and made many meaningful connections with my preschool and second grade students. I am now in my fourth year of being a full time preschool educator. In Chicago, I have loved meeting new families and applying my knowledge and hands on experiences from my student teaching at Depaul and CPS experience. Coming from a background of teachers, and being raised in this field, working with children has always been a perfect fit for me. Reading books, going for walks, building forts and using your imagination are experiences that help shape kids into intelligent and compassionate adults. The smallest adventures make the best memories. I understand how busy parents are in providing a happy and well-functioning household, I am someone who is trustworthy when it comes to taking care of your children when you are away. I want the best for them, in regards to their safety and wellbeing as well as making sure they have fun. I live in uptown, So if you want your kids to be in good hands, I am just a walk or a bus ride away :)). I am flexible and can adapt to your family’s needs! I look forward to hearing from you 💜

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
