Hello! My name is Mary. I'm 24 years old and currently studying psychology at NIU. I have cared for many children ages newborn-12+. I am able to cook for and feed them, take them to necessary places, help with homework, change diapers, bathe, and put to bed. I absolutely love kids and really connect with them. I enjoy doing fun activities such as crafts, playing outside, watching movies, going to the pool, etc. I am okay with pets and have my own car for any needs of transportation.

I am a caring, patient, and responsible caregiver who truly enjoys supporting families. I work especially well with children and dogs, and I always focus on creating a safe, positive, and supportive environment. I enjoy engaging kids in fun and meaningful activities, helping with routines, and being someone they feel comfortable with. I am also great with pets, especially dogs, and can help with walking, feeding, and playtime while making sure they are safe and happy. In addition, I am respectful and patient with seniors and happy to provide companionship and help with light daily tasks. Families can rely on me to be dependable, trustworthy, and attentive to everyone’s needs. I am currently studying Biochemical Engineering and am back in the U.S. for winter break, and I am committed to providing reliable, helpful, and caring support during this time.

Kyleigh $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kyleigh, and I’m a graduate student at North Central College pursuing my Master’s in Occupational Therapy. I have always loved working with children and hope to become a pediatric occupational therapist after graduation. I have experience working with children in a variety of settings. I currently work as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) at an ABA clinic, where I work one-on-one with children with autism and support them as they develop communication, social, behavioral, and daily living skills. I absolutely love being able to build relationships with the children I work with and watch their growth and progress! I also previously worked as a Rehabilitation Technician at a rehab hospital, where I gained valuable experience working alongside healthcare professionals and developed skills in patient care, safety, communication, and assisting with daily activities. Because I’m currently in graduate school, I’m looking for babysitting opportunities that allow me to balance my school schedule while continuing to do what I love—working with children! I’m responsible, patient, caring, and comfortable working with children of different ages and needs. I am First Aid, CPR, AED, and BLS certified for both adults and children, and I take safety and providing a comfortable environment for children very seriously. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide your children with safe, caring, and engaging care!

"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."
