Hi! I’m Yasmine - I’ve been a sitter for 5+ years. I am CPR certified, first aid trained and fully vaxxed. I am also bilingual in Spanish. I am looking for flexible part time work, date night/weekend opportunities and also tutor. Looking forward to meeting you!

“I have not used my Urbansitter account in years and I reactivated to post a last minute job that Yasmine responded to. She accepted a phone interview and was even able to quickly provide a reference for me within 24 hrs. We met her in person a few days later and she stayed with my kids (6 and 9), for about 8 hours. She punctual and immediately stepped in to help get their dinner ready while I got dressed to go to my event. I hung out for a bit but I could tell the kids seemed comfortable so I felt good about leaving them in Yasmine's care. I could tell she has experience with young kids. Very warm and and really takes the time to get to know them. They told me she can definitely babysit them again!”

I am 28 years old, and a registered nurse. I have been babysitting for about 10 years and my experience includes working several different families here on Urbansitter, in my neighborhood, as well as some family children. I went to the University of Iowa and studied health and human physiology and graduated nursing school in 2023. I worked as a day camp recreation leader for day for 7 years with the chicago park district, which allowed me to increase my experience working with children. I enjoy working with children and keeping them entertained through different activities, whether its arts and crafts or playing outside. I am also cpr certified and fully vaccinated. I prefer zelle,cash or Venmo but can be flexible. I look forward to working with your family!

Hi! My name is Ally and I'm a School Social Worker at an elementary school. I work primarily with students who are PreK-2nd grade. I am offering child care and pet care. I love spending time with kids and have been babysitting various ages since I was 15 years old. I enjoy doing anything (games, crafts, helping with homework, driving to activities, etc)! I am CPR certified and have taken many courses for my career related to social emotional skills and regulation. I have also watched both pets since I was 13 years old.

Booked by 16 families in Berwyn, IL

Hi! My name is Julia and I’m a college grad from DePaul. I have my bachelors in psychology with a concentration in human development, and currently work full time as a nanny to a 2 year old girl and two elementary aged boys. I love working with all ages of kids, and am hoping to find parents looking for a regular date night sitter on the weekends when I am not nannying. I have my own car for transportation, and am comfortable working with pets. Aside from my current nannying job, I have been working with children for the last 8 years throughout high school and college. I am CPR certified and feel comfortable caring for children over 6 months of age. I enjoy getting creative and having fun with the kids I sit for, and am also very comfortable at handling bed times and getting kiddos to sleep. I’m happy to set up a phone call or zoom meeting to chat further if you are interested :)

“Julia was a joy to have with our children and handled them with care and professionalism. A great combo of responsibility & fun!”
