Hi! My name is Yazzy and I’m currently a regent graduate from Columbia College Chicago. I am offering childcare services & pet services. I love being a babysitter and I’ve worked as a nursery worker until recently so I have several experiences with newborns, infants, and toddlers since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included crafts, tutoring, and meal prep. I also work as a photography assistant and can take your family portraits! I have four dogs of my own and I’m very comfortable around all pets & will treat your fur-babies as one of my own.

"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."
