Find an emergency babysitter in Skokie, IL

Hi! My name is Jawariya, but you can call me J. I’m a 28-year-old marketing professional with 11 years of hands-on babysitting experience. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and have worked with families both regularly and on an as-needed basis for evenings, weekends, and special occasions. My background includes years of consistent babysitting, as well as early experience through high school and college. I’m confident in my ability to multitask, keep children engaged, and maintain a safe, nurturing environment. Fun fact- I was in nursing school for 3 years and made a career change to marketing during COVID! I’m reliable, flexible with scheduling, and happy to provide references upon request. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

I am a 31 year old working and living in chicago. I enjoy being around children; their creativity and curiosity inspire me! Being the oldest of four siblings I understand the concern parents have for quality child care. I can offer transportation to or from school and activities. I am also happy to help with homework and prepare a meal. I am also cpr certified. I look forward to meeting you and your children!

Hello! My name is Allison, but I also go by Alli. I received a bachelor's and master's degree in Environmental Science, but art is also a large part of my life and I love to encourage creativity along with a love of nature! I live on the northwest side of Chicago with my grumpy senior dog. I am more than happy to help you and your family with homework, cleaning/chores, or meals. I'm also an animal lover and comfortable helping with most pets. I currently work a full-time standard Mon-Fri job (working with trees!) and am looking to supplement my income with occasional jobs or a part time role if it fits. I have used the Urban Sitter app off and on for many years and even worked a full-time nanny position found here for 8 months while I was in transition after grad school, so I'm very familiar and experienced with the work/app. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!

Hi, my name is Kati! I have been working with kids and pets for 12 years. I am currently in the process of going back to graduate school for Occupational Therapy, hoping to work in the pediatric sector. I just finished a summer internship with a pediatric occupational therapy clinic where I learned about developmental milestones, sensory needs, and helping kids communicate, as well as a variety of other skills! I currently provide part-time after school care to three children, so I have a good amount of flexibility and availability for daytime coverage, and date nights. I have also provided after school nannying for a family in Cincinnati for two years and a one other family in Chicago for three years. I have provided childcare to dozens of other families across the city, including for school closures, childcare gaps, and date nights. I’ve worked in the childcare part of conferences and weddings multiple times. I was a camp counselor for a theatre camp for two years leading ages 5-18 through a variety of activities. I currently volunteer at Lurie Children’s Hospital’s Almost Home Kids. I am CPR certified for the fifth time.

My family also has 2 dogs so I am super comfortable with pets.
