Yareli $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Yareli, and I am 21 years old, currently attending Morton College. I’ve been working as an assistant at a Montessori school for about 3 years, primarily with children aged 3-6, though I also have knowledge and some experience with younger children. My background in Montessori education has helped me develop a deep understanding of child development and how to engage with children in a peaceful and nurturing way. In addition to my work at the school, I have experience babysitting and enjoy creating fun, educational activities that keep children engaged. I love to read, paint, and write, and I bring a calm, peaceful, yet engaging energy that helps children feel comfortable and inspired. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your little ones!

Alexandra $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I am the ideal 21- year-old babysitter if you're searching for someone who is responsible, courteous, gregarious, professional, and bilingual. Born & raised in the city of Chicago I’ve always enjoyed being outdoors. I know my way around the whole city, with that being hopefully I can take your kid and or kiddos to a museum or park, etc! I was the only female student on my campus to graduate with a biliteracy seal on her diploma. I hold both national and international certifications. I also graduated with honors. I presided over a club in middle school and the drill flag team (majorette with a flag) in high school. I enjoy baking and cooking, and I don't mind doing so for an additional fee. With me, I hope to be able to help your children feel secure and at ease not only with them but the parent(s) as well.

"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."
