Hi Parents! I’m Sarah, a recent graduate from DePaul University. I have over 10 years of experience in Nannying and babysitting for children between the ages of 1 and 12. As a nanny, I prioritize the safety, creativity and education. I love coming up with new game concepts to play and introduce educational topics. Whether it's engaging in imaginative play, organizing educational activities, or assisting with homework, I strive to make each day meaningful and enjoyable for the children under my care. Some of my favorite activities to do are adventure walks, DIY days, baking and talent discovery! Most importantly, I am passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of children and helping them reach their full potential. I look forward to the opportunity to become a valued member of your family and to contribute to the happiness and well-being of your children. Please let me know if you have any questions about my work history or me. Thank you for your consideration, and stay safe. Best, Sarah
“Sarah was absolutely amazing. My son laughed the minute she came in! We would love to use her again! ”
I’m a patient, responsible, and upbeat babysitter with experience caring for children of all ages. As the oldest sister to my 9 year old brother, I’ve had hands on experience keeping kids happy, safe, and entertained. I also work at tutoring center, where I help students build academic skills and confidence, so I know how to keep things both fun and productive! Whether it’s helping with homework, reading stories, or playing games, I always aim to create a safe, positive environment. I’m CPR certified and very reliable, and I’d love the chance to support your family!
“My kids absolutely love spending time with Shantal! She takes great care of them and always plans fun activities to keep them engaged. My oldest is 12 and my youngest is 9, and they both look forward to the days she comes over. She has become an essential part of our family!”
Hello Everyone, my name is Melina, I am 30 years old. I have been married for 5 years and live in the Franklin Park area. I am a religious person, have strong moral values, and am very trustworthy. I have been caring for infants and toddlers for 5 years now. I have a strong love for children and their well being. I have worked at a Montessori school and assistant in a classroom.

Hello! My name is Aaliyah, and I’m a caring, dependable sitter with a genuine passion for working with children. I have experience creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment where kids can learn, grow, and feel confident being themselves. I love to cook (and bake homemade sweets), going on long walks, and doing arts and crafts. I’m currently in college studying to eventually become a pediatric nurse! I pride myself on being patient, attentive, and communicative with both children and parents, ensuring each family feels comfortable and supported. I own 3 cats, and all my life I grew up with animals from dogs to lizards, so I’m very comfortable with helping out and taking care of your pets too! Thank you for reading :))
Hi.My name is Stefany, I am 31 years old, currently residing in the northwest side of Chicago. I’m currently looking for few part time morning/evenings or overnight weekend stays. Whether it’s to step out and run to get errands done, dinner with a friend, a date night with your spouse, you name it. I’m here to help! I have experience with kids as long as I can remember. Babysitting was second nature to us. Migrating from Guatemala , my mother’s specialty was babysitting but primarily teaching . However struggles came in the way , the language barrier being one of them provided me with my first job at 8 years old as a translator . . I not only was “working” but it served me as it helped me practice my second language but most importantly I found much meaning and value in my mothers work...I loved going, I was able to make friends with their kids , build relationships and left inspired . Along the way, I was blessed with having nephews and nieces. Nine now! Growing up as a tight-knit family we’re always around to help each other out. Fast forward to my late teen years into young adulthood I started taking babysitting gigs as side jobs. I enjoy not only watching after kids but being able to not only be a teacher to them but most importantly learn from children themselves . They carry much gifts and help remind us about the meaning of what life really is about I hope to be able to share this with you and your family. Look forward to meeting and working with you!

"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."
