Hi, I'm Melanie! I'm 24 years old and currently studying Psychology. I have over four years of experience as a babysitter and nanny, working with children of all ages-from infants to preteens. I believe my psychology major allows me to better understand children's emotional, cognitive, and developmental needs. This knowledge helps me create a nurturing environment where kids can thrive and learn in a way that's developmentally appropriate for their age. I am patient, creative, and imaginative. I enjoy using these qualities to create fun and engaging activities. I love playing outdoor sports, physical games, board games, puzzles, and educational activities that promote learning. Craft-making is also one of my favorites! Additionally, I speak both English and Spanish, have my own car, and can provide references. I look forward to meeting your family and supporting your children's growth and development in any way I can!

Hi, my name is Tewa. I am going into my sophomore year of college I have worked in childcare for 4 years now. I work with children all ages, infants to teenagers. I can help kids with homework, drive them to activites, cook them meals and prepare them for bed if needed. I can also care for pets. I do not have any experience with caring for other dogs other than my own. However I do care for my dogs frequently. I am able to walk dogs, play with them and feed them. Whatever is needed.
“Tewa has been babysitting for our family since the fall of '22. She is a fantastic babysitter and I would highly recommend her to anyone. First, she is always punctual. My kids adore when she babysits to the point that when I say, Tewa is coming over they get excited instead of sad that I am leaving. This is exactly what you want from a babysitter! She plays with my children, ages 5 and 9. She plays full-hearted with them. She jumps on the trampoline. She chases them. They have this made-up mermaid game they play together. She is 100% involved and active with them. She takes them to the park. This is obviously my favorite thing about her bc it makes the time for my kiddos a fun experience. She keeps my house clean which is always so awesome. I do not have to worry about coming home and cleaning the dishes from dinner. She has my children clean up after themselves. She follows my instructions through all of it including bed time. My kids love her laid back attitude. She has fun w/them. I am also comfortable with her driving them to/from activities. I highly recommend her to anyone in the area! Of course, she asked me to write this review and I am so sad that she might not be available the next time I need her! LOL. She is fabulous! Take the chance- worth it!”
Hi! I’m Jacqueline , a dedicated caregiver and current DePaul University student living in Chicago. Originally from California, I bring over five years of hands-on experience in babysitting , with a special focus on infants and children. I also have a rover account were I watch dogs with 5 stars! My passion for working with kids is matched by my outgoing nature and remarkable patience, which truly set me apart as a caregiver. I’m committed to creating a nurturing and engaging environment for every child I care for, and my CPR certification from an in-person babysitting course underscores my dedication to their safety and well-being.
Hi! My name is Paige Genevieve and I am currently 23 and I graduated from Columbia College Chicago last year with a BFA in Musical Theatre. I love music, movies, and really all things artsy- paintings, poems, fashion, etc. I’m currently a server in west loop on weekends, and looking to free those weekends up for traveling to see family for the summer. I have over a decade of experience nannying for children ages 0-15. I have experience with children with learning disabilities and special needs. Infants, toddlers, pre-teens, multiple children- all very familiar to me. I can provide meal prep, household chores, love getting kiddos outdoors when weather permits, various enrichment activity, flexible learning/playing styles and I love animals so pets are no problem! I have a great passion for working with children and making families feel at ease and have peace of mind with their childcare. I am here to make your life easier! I had an amazing sitter growing up and try to emulate her always. I was also a Birthday Party Princess, so I’m big fans of Disney families! •• I am looking for a part-time- potential for full time- daily schedule. Preferred times: between 9:00-12:00 start, and 4:00-5:00 pm end time. Flexible of course, but my preference••

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
