I am responsible, enthusiastic, creative, nurturing, empathetic, patient, highly attuned to the needs of an individual child, communicative and open to direction. Responsibilities in my past and current roles include caring for infants, implementing schedules and routines, organizing engaging activities and outings, setting up stimulating environments that inspire imaginative play, driving to/from school and lessons, facilitating nature play, assisting with schoolwork, teaching arts and crafts and managing social/emotional/ behavioral challenges with children. I am capable of meal planning , cooking, light cleaning, laundry, pet care, grocery shopping and running errands. I look forward to meeting with you and your family to learn more about your needs and share how I might help. Best!
Hello there 👋🏻 I'm Kimberly I’m studying Disability and Human Development at UIC. I offer child care, senior care, and household help. I’ve been caring for kids of all ages and seniors, including those with Alzheimer’s and dementia, for over 10 years. I enjoy creating a safe and fun environment for kids with crafts, games, and storytime. I’ve also helped with schoolwork through my internship at Chicago HOPES for Kids. In addition to babysitting, I can help with cooking, cleaning, and errands. I’m available for occasional babysitting, including last-minute needs!
My name is Jennah! I am very friendly and easygoing. I like to be stern when needed. I enjoy creating schedules for the day, but if there is one in place as well, I am ready to follow it! :) I love working with young children and joining them on exploring their creativity. I love to cook simple meals and incorporating new things for them to try. I can help with all homework up to high school level. I have worked with multiple kids before for several years. I have a car and can perform all household duties/functions if needed! I currently do not have my own cleaning supplies to bring, but I will in a few months. If I am working with pets that require walking, I have worked with large dogs and am good to handle them on walks.
Hi.My name is Stefany, I am 31 years old, currently residing in the northwest side of Chicago. I’m currently looking for few part time morning/evenings or overnight weekend stays. Whether it’s to step out and run to get errands done, dinner with a friend, a date night with your spouse, you name it. I’m here to help! I have experience with kids as long as I can remember. Babysitting was second nature to us. Migrating from Guatemala , my mother’s specialty was babysitting but primarily teaching . However struggles came in the way , the language barrier being one of them provided me with my first job at 8 years old as a translator . . I not only was “working” but it served me as it helped me practice my second language but most importantly I found much meaning and value in my mothers work...I loved going, I was able to make friends with their kids , build relationships and left inspired . Along the way, I was blessed with having nephews and nieces. Nine now! Growing up as a tight-knit family we’re always around to help each other out. Fast forward to my late teen years into young adulthood I started taking babysitting gigs as side jobs. I enjoy not only watching after kids but being able to not only be a teacher to them but most importantly learn from children themselves . They carry much gifts and help remind us about the meaning of what life really is about I hope to be able to share this with you and your family. Look forward to meeting and working with you!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
