"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

$20 per hour for 1 child
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Crest Hill, IL
I was a bilingual / ESL teacher for 10 years and have plenty of experience working with children from ages 5 and older. I love the spontaneity and unpredictability of working with kids. I have a dog of my own and plenty of experience with animals, as I also have been a volunteer at PAWS no kill animal shelter.
“Paul noted that he recently joined Urbansitter and our booking was his first sitting job via Urbansitter. He showed up on time, was friendly and jumped right into playing/watching our son Miles who really enjoyed spending the time with Paul. Paul is attentive, punctual, fun, flexible and friendly, definitely would hire again!! :)”
Jada $23 per hour for 1 child
Hi families! I’m Jada! I’m currently a nanny in Plainfield and looking to connect with families who need occasional babysitting, date-night care, or just some extra help here and there! (Not seeking recurring jobs.) I have 8 years of professional childcare experience working with children from newborns through school age, including several years as a lead teacher. I also have my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Studies and am CPR/First Aid certified. I’d describe myself as bubbly, patient, dependable, and very hands on. I love getting the kids out of the house, going on walks, reading, doing crafts, playing outside, and finding fun things to do based on their age and interests. I’m definitely more of a play based caregiver and prefer keeping kids engaged rather than relying on screens. Yes I dress up in costumes and play the board games with every kid I care for! About me: I enjoy reading, getting coffee, doing crafts, and spending time outdoors. I’d love to connect with some local families who are looking for a reliable sitter they can reach out to whenever they need an extra set of hands!

Booked by 1 family in Crest Hill, IL
Hi! My name is Amanda and I am looking for fun, sweet, loving families to babysit on the weekends! I am currently a full time nanny but looking to pick up extra hours on the weekend :) I have my degree in early childhood education as well as many years providing care for children ages 2 months to 12 years! My passion is and will always be caring for children and I cannot wait to have my own children to love on some day! I can’t wait to connect and to tell you more about me as well as learn about you and your family!!
“Amanda did an amazing job. She was in charge of our little one at our wedding. She made sure our daughter was fed, clean and having a great time. Our daughter was able to keep her routine on this day all because of Amanda. Our daughter had an instant connection with her and it really showed. I could not have booked a better nanny for our special day. All night everyone kept coming up to me letting me know how great Amanda was. We cannot thank her enough for her patience and professionalism.”
Abigail $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable medical student who has grown up helping care for younger siblings and family members. I’ve always enjoyed spending time with children and creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for them. I’m comfortable with children from toddlers through teens and can help with playtime, homework, meals, routines, and keeping kids engaged. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and take following parents’ instructions and routines seriously. I’m currently looking for part-time, occasional, and date-night babysitting opportunities and would love the opportunity to support your family!

Hello!! My name is Iyonna, I am a 19 year old college student home for the summer! I play volleyball in college and have my own lash business that’s going on to 4 years!
