Hi, UrbanSitter families! 👋 I’m a lifelong Chicago-area resident, mom of three, and a trusted, experienced caregiver who truly loves working with kids of all ages. I’m a non-smoker, fully COVID-vaccinated and boosted, and I prioritize safety and reliability in everything I do. Caring for children has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been a paid babysitter since my teens, am the oldest of six siblings, and spent 10 years as a Girl Scout leader—planning activities, leading overnight camping trips, and even international travel! While a GS leader, I maintained annual infant/child CPR and First Aid certification for a decade. Families describe me as punctual, dependable, calm, and creative. I love doing crafts, imaginative play, and reading. I’m always happy to help with meals and leave your space clean and organized after our time together. I have extensive experience with infants, toddlers, school-age children, and multiple siblings. I was state-registered as a respite caregiver for children with special needs for several years, and currently provide ongoing mentorship and care for a teen on the autism spectrum. Availability: I’m looking to support families during evenings and weekends. I have a standing commitment with another family on Sunday mornings but am available weeknights and most weekend days and evenings.

I've been babysitting my whole life and really enjoy spending time with children. They are genuine, inventive and energetic and a welcome change from the adults I spend most of my time with! I'd love to meet to see if I would be a good fit for you. I began babysitting when I was 12 and haven't stopped since. My youngest sister was born when I was 14 so I have day-to-day experience caring for a young child in my own family. I babysat my way through college, for individual families and for a few churches in a daycare setting. During the summer I worked day camp for school age children and also did respite work with handicapped children. After college I worked full time in the infant and toddler rooms of an Athletic center in Denver for a year - also privately babysitting for several of those families.
