Hi, I’m Serena! I’ve been the designated babysitter for my little cousins for as long as I can remember. As the youngest of three with two older brothers, I’ve always enjoyed being around children and caring for others. I’m also a nurse with experience working with all age groups, from newborns to adults. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and calm under pressure, with a strong understanding of safety and care. I love keeping kids engaged through play, activities, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m excited to bring my experience and caring personality to every family I work with!

Booked by 1 family in Techny, IL
With over a decade of professional experience in child care; lifeguard, swim instructor, children's birthday entertainer, substitute teacher, and daycare worker/pre-k teacher, I have just about every child imaginable. I've also been babysitting since I was 12, for my parents, cousins, friends, and the occasional co-worker who needed a night off. I've seen all ages, 6m-17y. I like to think I connect with children so well because I truly am just a big kid at heart. But I also know when play time is over and to be firm, but fair. I have training in basic first aid, CPR, basic diabetic care, certified in anaphylactic safety, certified in allergy safety, certified in food handling and safety.
“Hailey is great! She checked in beforehand for any specific directions and showed up at our home a little early, ready to engage with the kids. She is kind and personable, the kids really enjoyed her being here, and we will see her again! ”

"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."
