I am a certified educator and teach PreK-8th grade Writing with CPS during the academic year. I have a master's degree in education, and am happy to provide tutoring services while I babysit.
Hello my name is Shannon or Shan. During the school year I am a program manager for before and after school programs at a CPS grade school. I work with all ages from Pre K to seventh grade in the program. I have many years experience babysitting for infants and toddlers. My schedule is currently very open for the summer so I have a lot of flexibility. I love all animals, I myself have two cats, and also have several years experience pet sitting, mainly dogs and cats.
Hello! My name is Audrey and I am a licensed OT currently working in schools. I am looking for additional hours outside of work and to save some money. I’d love to help out you and your family! I have worked with children since I was a teenager, babysitting kids in the neighborhood and helping raise my younger brother with autism spectrum disorder. In high school, I nannied for two families for years. Their children ranged from 2-10 years old. Since living in Chicago (2020) I’ve worked with two families very closely to help their 5 month old babies in those early developmental stages. I am confident in working with children of all ages and abilities. As a school based OT, I work with students ages 2-22 years old. I enjoy providing experiences outside, crafting, art projects, sensory play, imaginary play, going for walks, and more. I am confident in my abilities and have a lot to offer to your family. I am vaccinated and boosted. I also have a car. I usually get home around 5 pm on week days, my weekends are usually free. Please contact me if you have any further questions. Have a great day!!! ~ Audrey
“We love Audrey! She is so attentive and patient with our 11-month-old and has been taking care of him for a few months now. We highly recommend booking with her if she is available!”
Hi! I’m Tiana, a dependable and caring babysitter who brings a fun, calm energy to childcare. I love keeping kids engaged through creative activities like arts and crafts, reading, and imaginative play, while always prioritizing safety and structure. I’m patient, attentive, and great at following routines like homework time, meals, and bedtime. I have experience working with children ages 4-10 due to mentorship programs. I also come from a large family, having six siblings, so I am capable of watching numerous children at once. Outside of caretaking, I am currently a college student getting a BFA. I also have work experience in public event management, catering to a wide age range. I aim to make every event accessible and inclusive to all.
Hello! I’m Michelle, and I recently moved from New York City to Chicago. I bring over 3 years of experience as an Emergency Room nurse, where I gained valuable skills in patient care, safety, and attention to detail. Before becoming a nurse, I spent many years tutoring and babysitting children of all ages, starting at the age of 13. In addition to babysitting, I am happy to help with household chores, cooking, and cleaning. I can also provide care for seniors, using my medical background to offer an extra layer of support and safety. While I don’t have a driver’s license, I am reliable, responsible, and always ensure a high standard of care. I look forward to helping your family with both child care and household needs!

"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."
