Booked by 67 families in Winfield, IL

I am the oldest of six children and was more of a parent than a sister to all of them. The two youngest kids are 15 and 13 years younger than I am. I love children and have always enjoyed being around them. I am a trained Chef and can cook or help prepare meals if needed. I am also a Chef Instructor and Assistant Food Stylist. At this time I am interested in occasional babysitting to supplement my freelance income. Being able to hang out with kids would be a fun and fulfilling way to do that.

My name is Rida, nice to meet you 😊 Families would describe me as trustworthy, communicative, flexible, and kind. I’m am CPR certified, a non smoker, and have over 9 years of experience. I’m 28 years old and a Chicago native! I grew up in Rogers park and now live in the North suburbs! I currently work full time downtown on a hybrid schedule. I have availability on weekends (morning and/or night). I do have my own car and work with families across the city and select suburbs! I graduated from Depaul University in 2020 in political science. I also have an Illinois Teacher’s substitute license. I have been on Urbansitter since 2017 as I started off doing date nights while in undergrad. I had multiple part time families before COVID, as well as some families during that eventually moved out of Chicago. I have families where i have done overnights for while parents are away, as well as pet/house sitting. I have experience with hotel sitting for weddings or while parents may be from out of town! I am comfortable working with 4-5 kiddos at a time- as I have experience working with different ages at once! On the day of the booking, I will make sure to update you on the kid(s) to ensure that they are in good hands :) I come from a big family that are all located in the Chicagoland area. My mom is a teacher in the city so, I get many of my great skills from her! I also help raised my little sister, who is now 18 years old :) Looking forward to meeting you! I am always open to a quick phone call or a working session to get to know your family and to see if it’s a good fit!

Rida watched our 2 boys (ages 11 months & 4 yrs) and she was amazing! Our oldest already asked when he can play with her again ❤️

Booked by 13 families in Winfield, IL

Hi! My name is Tatiana. I’m a lead daycare teacher at a Reggio Emilia inspired center with a strong passion for working with children. I love creating fun, hands-on moments through arts and crafts, and I always aim to make every day both safe and enjoyable. At the moment, my main goal is to work as much as I can to save up so I can return to school, while continuing to do what I love supporting children’s growth, creativity, and happiness. I would be excited to get to know your family and be a positive, reliable part of your child’s life.

We were in a pinch and Tatiana stepped up to help out! Much appreciated!
