Booked by 125 families in Deerfield, IL

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!

Very nurturing and we were so comfortable to have her look after our newborn.

Wheeling
$15 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Deerfield, IL

I am a sweet and reliable baby sitter with Pediatric First Aid, CPR, and AED certification. Currently studying at Wright College. Also, I am bilingual (Spanish and English ) I have experience with children as a volunteer at a church daycare in Mexico as teen. I also have 2 younger siblings now 11 and 15 who I helped take care of as babies. Additionally, I have worked for 3 families in Chicago. I am willing to do small chores around the house as well.

Monica was kind, responsible, prompt and capable. She was great with our baby and our dog, and was comfortable with the direction I gave her. She helped my 16.5 month old, get more comfortable with using a spoon, and he seemed more talkative following her stay. She was great at active play with my son, and even took him to the park. Will definitely be using her again.

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kayla, and I'm currently a union electrical apprentice that works full time and goes to school. I grew up and currently live in Libertyville with my fiancé and 3 cats. In my free time I love to ski and ride my motorcycle. I'm currently a part time nanny and am looking for other part time nanny work and or occasional babysitting gigs. **Fun babysitting is my specialty** I'm not a "turn the TV on and play on my phone" sitter. If your kids are playing a game or running around, I'm doing it with them, not just watching. I love spending time with kids and I can't wait to meet yours! :)

Coming from a family with 6 children, and me bring the second oldest I’m already familiar with lots of children around me. Also I am a mother myself now and that also makes me love being around children too. I used to work as a babysitter for some lovely families. Now I have a part time office job, very flexible and u could use some extra work.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
