I am 28 years old, and a registered nurse. I have been babysitting for about 10 years and my experience includes working several different families here on Urbansitter, in my neighborhood, as well as some family children. I went to the University of Iowa and studied health and human physiology and graduated nursing school in 2023. I worked as a day camp recreation leader for day for 7 years with the chicago park district, which allowed me to increase my experience working with children. I enjoy working with children and keeping them entertained through different activities, whether its arts and crafts or playing outside. I am also cpr certified and fully vaccinated. I prefer zelle,cash or Venmo but can be flexible. I look forward to working with your family!

Hello! I have experience caring for newborns up to pre-teens, and have babysat for many families of multiple children over the past 12 years. The more the merrier! I truly enjoy spending time with kids and making sure they are happy and comfortable while their parents are out. I'm very organized and responsible, and always clean up after any messes - including the kitchen after mealtimes. I enjoy the challenge of keeping kids happy and laughing, while also sticking to their routines. I have experience changing diapers, feeding children and infants, cooking, cleaning, and driving children to activities. I also worked as a lifeguard for 6 years, so I'm very comfortable and familiar with CPR, first aid, and water safety. I love being active, the outdoors, playing games, and encourage all forms of artistic creativity. I also love to read - especially to kids! In addition to child care, I'm a personal trainer and health coach. I have a bachelors degree in Human Physiology and took a college class on Child Psychology and Development.
