“Rhea is our favorite babysitter! She is so good with kids and has alot of experience since she has kids of her own. We’re so thankful that we found Rhea. My kid likes her a lot and has been asking when Rhea will come over again. ”

Hello I am a college student located near Loyola University Chicago but I have my car as reliable transportation. I’d love to work for your family for a date night or a last minute need. I have 2 summers experience working with large groups of children (ranging between 3mo-12yrs) at Lifetime fitness’s Kids Academy. I also have 2 years experience doing occasional babysitting for families specifically through this app. I have my infant, child, and adult CPR certification along with my first aid certification. I am very creative, so I would love to create fun and engaging activities for your child(ren). Or to just go along with any plans or schedule you have.
Hi... My name is Beth and I have lived in Chicago for over 30 years. I graduated from Columbia College and my professional career centered around Marketing and Advertising. I worked for 2 years as an After School Nanny, picking up from Lincoln Park and driving home to Evanston, then staying with the amazing young person until the parents finished work. The Family then arranged for a Live-In Au Pair, but we keep in touch and they are an excellent reference. That family gave my information to a neighbor and I have been working with them for the past Three Years, driving 2 children home from school. They travel overseas during the Summer and will be leaving the country after Memorial Day. Next school year their children will attend a school much closer to home so I am seeking a new opportunity to work with a new Family. I have my own reliable SUV and a clean driving (and No criminal) record. I get along great with kids and they seem to like me too. I will prioritize your rules, follow your preferred snack and meal choices and mix homework or chores with encouragement and fun. Aside from many years of "Babysitting", I was a Certified Lifeguard, a Summer Camp Counselor and an Arts & Crafts Teacher at Sunday School. I also am a Trained Driver, having worked as a Chauffeur for almost 2 years. I'm a musician and like singing - music is a wonderful language. I'm also a Dog Mama and have no problem with dogs, feeding and walking. Ask me about Weekends and Special Events.
“We were so lucky to have Beth work for us for almost two years as our after-school care giver. She picked our child up from school, drove them the 30+ minutes home, and kept our child entertained. She also took them to some local after school activities. Beth is really warm and fun. Our kiddo loved her and she will now always be part of our village! She was very reliable and communicative. She was able to speak directly with us regarding issues that came up, but things were mostly smooth. She brings a lot of heart to her work and any family would be lucky to work with her!”
As a nanny with six years of experience, I am confident in my ability to provide excellent care for your children and contribute to your household in a variety of ways. I would love to find a family that needs requiring Friday evening sittings. I would love to help a family unwind from a chaotic week and enter the weekend with well rested children and a clean home. After spending some time playing with the kids and feeding them dinner I will assist your children with their bedtime routine. After the children are asleep I will spend the remaining hours cleaning and tidying the home. I feel it is important for a home to be clean so the family can function as smooth as possible. My passion for seeing children grow into caring, creative, and fun individuals is what drives me to be a nanny. I have been fortunate enough to work with children of varying ages, from infants to pre-teens, throughout my career. In my previous roles, I have always strived to create a sate and nurturing environment for the children in my care, while also encouraging their growth and development through play and educational activities.
“Jackie was great!”

"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
