Bilingual (English/Spanish) UChicago grad with years of babysitting experience, from 3-month-old infants to toddlers age 5. Responsible, warm, and organized. Currently pursuing pre-med studies at Northwestern.
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 Blessed and I am a current first grade teacher assistant as well as a masters student at Loyola University. I got my undergraduate degrees in Art History and Community Education and adore children. I love being a teacher and have been watching toddlers and kids since I was 15 years old. I am also CPR Certified as well.
Hii my names Isabella ! I’m a 20 year old currently studying Biology with a focus on Genetics. I’m in my final year and excited to be just one year away from earning my bachelor’s degree. I’ve always been passionate about science and the way it helps us understand life on a deeper level, especially in the field of genetics. I’ve also always had a natural connection with kids I love spending time with them, learning from their curiosity, and helping them grow. Growing up, my family worked in household roles like housekeeping and house management, and they often took me along. So from a young age, I got to see what it means to be responsible, organized, and attentive to others’ needs. That experience really shaped the way I carry myself today. Outside of school and work, I love being outdoors, trying new foods, and finding little adventures around the city. Whether it’s going to a street market, spending time with family, or just relaxing with a good movie, I like to stay balanced and appreciate the small things in life.
My name is Susie. I am the mother of two teenage daughters and currently work as a substitute teacher at a Jk-12 grade private school and I teach children and adults painting and drawing at an art school. I am offering child care for children of all ages. I love caring for children and have been doing so in some capacity for the past 19 years. 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!

"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
