Hi! I’m Michelle, a responsible and dependable college student who enjoys working with children. My childcare experience comes from helping care for my younger brother and babysitting for family friends, where I’ve learned the importance of creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I graduated as my high school’s valedictorian and am happy to help with homework and learning activities. I’m also involved with Northwestern University’s Supplies for Dreams, an organization that supports Chicago Public Schools through school supply drives, field trips, and one-on-one student mentorship. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or sticking to your family’s routine, I’ll make sure your children are well cared for and engaged.
I am a junior psychology student at UIC with a 4.0 GPA. I started babysitting when I was in 8th grade. I have worked as a lifeguard and swim instructor for four years and maintain a first aid and CPR certification from the Red Cross Association. I currently work as a behavioral technician with children who have Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Hi families! My name is Nohely, a first year student at DePaul University. I have worked as a childcare assistant with children aged 6 months - 12 years, although my experience with infants is limited. Additionally, I currently work as a youth caretaker/teacher at my local church, in which I care for children aged 10-14. I have owned both cats and dogs, and therefore have good basic knowledge in caring for animals (feeding schedules, walks, stimulation, etc). I am also able to provide household services like cooking, cleaning, deep cleaning, and other related services. I like to think I get along well with kids of all ages and am able to adapt to a child's needs, wants, and personalities. Hope to meet you all soon!
Hi, my name is Mia and I’m currently a freshman at Dominican University. I am offering child and pet care. I currently have no experience working with children but want to change that, as I hope to become a child psychologist in the future. I am willing to offer homework help and cleaning services around the house. I am a pet owner of 4 dogs myself, all different breeds, and offer dog sitting, walks, and regular play. I am more comfortable with small to medium dogs but am willing to care for larger dogs as well.
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
