Booked by 9 families in Kenilworth, IL

Hello, my name is Pia and am currently in school for ultrasound tech. I am offering child care and household services. I have 4 years of experience as a daycare assistant watching over infants, toddlers, and kids (pre-k to 6th grade). I have also been babysitting different families ever since I was 16 years old. I enjoy my responsibilities of taking the kids to the park or the library, driving to/from school, tutoring, making art and crafts, or sing and dance to some music. I also offer light housekeeping services such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, and occasional grocery shopping. If you would like to add more housekeeping services, just let me know-- I will be flexible!

Hello! My name is Natalia, and working with children has always been my true passion. I hold a Master’s degree in Education and have over 17 years of experience helping children learn and grow. For the past four years, I’ve been a Preschool Teacher at a private school in Chicago, where I work with young learners ages 2–4. I’m 43 years old and a proud mom of three (ages 22, 20, and 9). My colleagues and families describe me as warm, dedicated, and reliable. In my free time, I also work as a babysitter, which I truly enjoy — spending time with little ones always brings me joy and positive energy. 💛

“Natalia was punctual and extremely patient with our son. She asked a lot of questions and followed our instructions. Would hire again!”

Booked by 1 family in Kenilworth, IL

Hi, my name is Suzanne! I’m energetic, creative, and patient, with a big heart for kids and the joy they bring. I love making children feel safe, included, and excited to learn and play. For the past three summers I’ve worked as a counselor at a stay-away summer camp where I lived with and cared for kids ages 8–15 for six weeks at a time. Beyond camp and taking care of older kids, I have a lot of experience caring for and babysitting toddlers 13 months and up and love how curious and playful that age is. I bring both structure and fun to every setting whether that means planning crafts, organizing games, or helping with homework. If your kids love video games I can hop into Roblox or Minecraft with them 😆 but I also enjoy screen-free activities like board games, card games, and creative projects. Along with child care I’m terrific at keeping a clean organized home, and I love pets just as much as kids. Growing up with ADHD shaped how I connect with children. I know how important it is to feel accepted and understood, and I make it my mission to ensure every child feels confident and happy being themselves. I also attended a boarding high school for art and creative writing, where I lived year-round. Since I was away from home and living in a dorm, I never needed a license, and now that I live in Chicago I rely on public transportation instead of driving. Sadly I won’t be able to provide transportation for your children.

“The kids had a great time with Suzanne! She was great at playing with the 1yo, 5yo, and 7yo.”

"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."
