Booked by 2 families in Skokie, IL

Hi! I’m a graduate from Loyola University and am pursuing my Masters in Education. I’m offering child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve been working with children from the ages of 3 months to 13 years old for 6+ years now and have enjoyed every minute of it! I have years of experience in the school/classroom setting as well as babysitting for all different age levels. Working in these positions is a very fulfilling and rewards experience that taught me patience, creativity, and responsibility. Whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or simply offering a listening ear, each interaction I’ve had contributes to the love I have for my job and building that safe and nurturing environment!

“Brianna has a sweet and nurturing nature that is immediately clear the second she walked in the door. Prior to the job, she was very communicative and responsive. She was professional and genuinely has a passion for spending time with kids. ”

Rosanne $22 per hour for 1 child

I am a highly experienced, well/educated (Masters degree), kind, patient, warm, and fun caregiver. I have worked with families with children ranging in age from 2 months to middle school age. I have completed pediatric first aid and CPR training. The parents for whom I have recently worked include a clinical psychologist/professor at Northwestern, a nursing instructor at Loyola, and a neonatologist in residency at Northwestern. I’m happy to provide references. I genuinely love spending my time with children of all ages. Whenever the weather allows, I take kids out for long nature walks. I also enjoy encouraging kids to express themselves artistically. I love baking with kids. My absolute favorite caregiving activity is reading bedtime stories and singing I’m happy to provide a resume and references upon request. I live in Skokie and we have a three year old rescue lab/hound mix named Korra. I love dogs and I am comfortable with all kinds of pets. I’m very happy to help out with laundry, dishes, and picking up around the house whenever the kids are napping. While the kids are awake, I keep my focus on ensuring that they are safe, fed, and having fun. I do not spend time on my phone while caregiving, other than to check in with parents or provide updates. Thanks for your consideration. Rosanne

"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."
