Hi, my name is Oskar! I’m 25 years old and looking for a consistent babysitting position with a great family. While I don’t have formal childcare job experience, I’ve grown up around lots of younger cousins and am very comfortable caring for kids in a hands-on, responsible way. I’m dependable, patient, and fun to be around, and I always prioritize safety and structure. I’m most comfortable with potty-trained children and enjoy keeping kids engaged with activities, games, and routines that make them feel secure and happy. I’m also very comfortable with pets. I regularly dog-sit for a friend, so furry family members are never a problem! I’m looking for something consistent where I can build trust with a family and become someone both parents and kids can rely on.
I'm Audrey, a BFA student here in Chicago! I'm mainly offering care and tutoring to kids 4+, as well as petsitting. I have a good few years of experience with keeping all different kinds of kids (and pets) happy, engaged, and entertained. I love teaching/tutoring too! I'm extremely proficient with language arts and good with math as well. As an acting major and someone who's done performing arts for years, I'm an expressive reader, a great pretend-player, and have a practically infinite amount of games always at the ready. whether your kid wants to run around wild, work on their reading, sit and paint together, or somewhere in between, I've got you covered! hope to see you soon! P.S, animals love me, and I love them :)
I have six years of childcare experience and would love to help with pet care, childcare, and house needs (errands, meal prep, etc.) I am organized, responsible, and have a medical background, so your kiddos will be in great hands! Also, my schedule is flexible.
Hello! My name is Si’edah. I came across your profile and wanted to introduce myself because I believe my background and experience align well with what you’re looking for. I am a Registered Nurse with a strong foundation in compassionate, person-centered care. Prior to nursing, I worked closely with adults with disabilities and individuals on the autism spectrum, supporting them through daily living activities, arts and crafts, creative projects, and engaging routines. I truly enjoy cooking and can follow new recipes with ease. I also love incorporating movement, gentle exercise, and meaningful activities into the day to keep things positive and engaging. I am nurturing, patient, and attentive, and I always strive to create a safe, comfortable, and encouraging environment for the people I work with. I have reliable transportation, I do not smoke, and I approach every role with professionalism and kindness. I would love the opportunity to connect and see if I may be a good fit for your 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."
Laura F., mom of two
