Kaela $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Rudy. I’m a 27 year old trans queer educator & social worker. I moved to Chicago about 3 years ago to earn my masters in social work. Despite having many loved ones on the east coast, I stuck around after falling in love with this city. I currently live in the Irving Park neighborhood and I have a big ole Subaru outback! I work full time as a sexual violence prevention educator at a nonprofit. I’m available on weekday evenings with enough notice, and most weekends. I’ve worked with kids on and off my whole life, as I grew up with a mom who is a theater teacher and I would help her with her after school programs. I also have 25 first cousins, so there’s always kiddos around. Experience: Nanny to a 4 and 7 year old set of siblings during the pandemic years of 2020 & 2021. Sitter to a 7 week old through his 1st birthday. Sitter to middle schoolers. There are no reviews on my profile yet, as I just signed up for UrbanSitter this week, so I’m happy to provide references. I am a responsible, communicative, enthusiastic and earnest person. I look forward to speaking with you, and answering any questions you may have for me!
Maya $19 per hour for 1 child
Hello! I am Maya! I am currently a sophomore at NEIU (Northeastern Illinois University). Currently I am offering child and animal care. I work at the Child Care Center at my college ! I work with 1-5 years olds. I’m a very caring and loving person. I have experience taking care of many children. I also used to be a lifeguard so I am trained in CPR and first aid! I love to cook and bake many things. I have one dog named Felix. I love to explore around Chicago and go on new adventures. I love doing art crafts as well. I used to be in the art program in my high school. I’m a very goal oriented girl!

I grew up taking care of my little cousins and dogs! I used to work in a nursing home as a wait staff. I am going into nursing for pediatrics. I now own a little black cat named Jasper. I enjoy doing art, reading, and playing outside with kids!
Nadiia $19 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Nadiia and I am a mom of a 5-year-old boy. I have real experience taking care of children every day as a parent, and I understand how important it is to keep kids safe, happy, and busy. In the past, I also helped take care of my grandmother, so I am very patient and responsible. I love animals, so pets are never a problem. I am looking for part-time morning jobs where I can help families with babysitting, light play, meals, or just making sure your child feels comfortable and cared for. Parents describe me as kind, caring, and reliable. I would be happy to meet your family!
Lily $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Lily and I have been babysitting for over 12 years! I love hanging out with kids whether that includes arts & crafts or playing soccer. I have worked as a overnight camp counselor for middle school aged children, where I developed emotional support skills. I have also been a regular babysitter for babies, toddlers, and more. I aim to provide a fun and comforting experience for the kids while also making sure the parents come home to a clean house:)
