Solyenitzi $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Sol, and I’m a reliable, patient, and caring nanny/babysitter with experience working with children through babysitting and daycare settings. I’m CNA and CPR certified, have my own reliable transportation, and love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for kids. I enjoy helping with playtime, routines, meals, bedtime, and making both children and parents feel comfortable and supported!
Frank $17 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Frank (but I go by Frankie). I am a college student offering babysitting services. I really enjoy working with grade school kids. I am currently working at an after-school program where I work with over sixty kids. I like to make a safe and positive environment where kids can have a fun time. I can help them with homework, plan some fun activities to do, take them to a local park, or watch a movie. I'm a-ok with pets (mostly dogs and cats). As of right now, I am not CPR certified, but I'm trying to get my certificate. I'm in my second year of college, so I don't have a degree (yet). Also, I have a drivers license, but I don't have a car. I have reliable transportation to and from homes, but I am not available for child transportation and will not drive family vehicles. However, I can walk them if schools/activities are in walking distance. That's about it. Feel free to reach out whenever you need a babysitter. Leave a review and give some feedback and hopefully we can work with each in the future. Thank you so much for reading. Take care! :)

Booked by 1 family in Plato Center, IL
Hi, I'm Brooklyn! I am a junior at the University of Kentucky studying Clinical Leadership and Management, and I am back in the Chicago suburbs for the summer. Those who know me would describe me as responsible, friendly, and hard working. I love working with kids because I enjoy watching them learn and grow, and providing a nurturing space for them to do so. I am fulfilled by helping others, and when I see that a child is happy, it makes me happy. I am also an animal lover and am more than willing to help out with your furry friends! I'm looking for a job that offers flexible hours and a comfortable environment. In addition to caring for children and pets, I am also willing to help with minor household duties and provide transportation. I have had experience with children of all ages since I was about 13, but growing up as an older sister, I have had the opportunity to care for children nearly my whole life and find it incredibly rewarding. I look forward to helping your family in any way that I can!
“Brooklyn is great with our daughter. We’ve loved having her watch our daughter. She is warm, dependable, and completely engaged—our daughter looks forward to every visit. Brooklyn is great with routines, playtime, and communication, and we always feel at ease knowing she’s in good hands. Highly recommend!”

"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."
