Hello! My name is Jillian, I’m 24 years old with 6 years of experience as a babysitter and nanny. I love to get kids using their imaginations, playing outside, making crafts, reading books, and chitchatting. I do not like screens and prefer them to be off and away. I am very communicative, experienced, and reliable and would love to get to know you and your family!
I'm a loving, joyful, and energetic person with a strong drive and a true passion for childcare. I have experience with children of all ages, including three experiences caring for baby twins and one experience with older twins. I'm responsible, patient, and always attentive to the unique needs of each child. Whether it's playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I bring positivity and dedication to every moment. I also have a reliable car, which allows me to manage school runs, extracurricular activities, and family errands efficiently. I'm currently majoring in Nursing, which has strengthened my knowledge of child development, health, safety, and patient care. I'm fully committed to providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your children.
Hi families, My name is Briana and I now live in Oak Park, IL! I have two years of experience working with ages 0-5 years in a daycare setting, and am looking to work intimately with a family in a babysitter/nannying role! I love to clean, organize, wash/fold laundry (no, seriously) and bake! I am very hands on and love to serve in any way I can. I believe that in any work setting, we are there to make your life easier so I would love to help out with these things if needed :) What makes me a great caregiver is that I always desire to be excellent in anything I am given. So that means asking questions, taking initiative and jumping in, finding ways to help out with the children or around the house, etc. I believe a great worker is a worker that never gives up!
Hi my name is Lexi! I am currently a paraprofessional for preschoolers with autism! I am looking into becoming a teacher, I love children and animals! I love doing art, working on motor skills, speech, love being outside, love cooking and baking and am pretty active and just looking for occasional babysitting since i am working full time!
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."
Laura F., mom of two
