Alexzandrea $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lyons, IL

Hello! My name is Alexzandrea, and I'm excited to offer my babysitting services to families in need. With 9 years of experience in the education field and 7 years of babysitting on and off, I bring a well-rounded background of skills to ensure your child is cared for and engaged in a safe, nurturing environment. I'm a proud breast cancer survivor, and this journey has made me even more passionate about life and making meaningful connections. Recently, I was laid off from my position at Chicago Public Schools, and I'm looking to dedicate my time to helping children in new ways. As a parent of a child with ADHD, I have a deep understanding of how to manage different behavioral needs and create personalized strategies for each child to thrive. I believe in fostering a positive, supportive, and fun environment, where kids feel heard and loved. I also have my own reliable car, so transportation is never an issue if you need me to pick up or drop off your child. I truly love working with children.

Hello! I'm Gina and I recently moved to Chicago from Boston to be with my partner. I'm enjoying learning my way around this beautiful city, and love working with kids of all ages as well as pets. I have nieces and nephews ranging from 2 to 18 and have always been very close with them. I also have experience nannying in Boston while I was in college. I'm extremely responsible and reliable, have a car, have flexible hours, and kids seem to love me :) I love pets as well and would be more than happy to take care of yours.

Nicole $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m an experienced and reliable caregiver with a strong background in both childcare and household support. I’ve spent years caring for children of all ages. Growing up my sister was 10 years younger than me, so I had many years babysitting/caring for her and her neighborhood friends. I also worked at a daycare program for 2 years. I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment, whether that’s helping with homework, planning activities, or keeping daily routines on track. I’m comfortable with pets as well (I have a husky of my own). Also, happy to help with light housework or whatever your family needs to feel supported!

Elisabeth $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Elisabeth. I am 31. I am passionate about being a caregiver and taking care of the home as well, because I thoroughly enjoy the process of being completely involved and supportive. My experience begins with six months of age up to 15 years of age. I have as well worked with a child who had severe autism and physical and intellectual disability. I’ve been a Nanny and house manager, and have primarily worked in Tulsa, Oklahoma; Phoenix, Arizona; Salt Lake City, Utah; and Los Angeles, California. I am new to Chicago and live in Rogers Park, so I’m happy to commute! I do not have a car at the moment. I am great with cooking as well as cleaning; and I am very patient, nurturing, supportive, and kind.

"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."
