Booked by 7 families in Stone Park, IL

For the past 20 years I have been entrusted to nurture newborns, to help preschoolers learn their numbers and letters, to organize fun activities, educational outgoings and to help families balance the many demands in their lives. As a mother of four children myself, I have always been privileged to help young people grow and learn. I continue to find this kind of work to be my labor of love.

Kareena showed up early and jumped right in. She’s incredibly experienced and gave us tons of tips on things that have worked for her in the past. I can’t wait to have her come back! Our son loved her immediately.

Hi! I am a college student majoring in Accounting at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I have been a swim instructor for kids under the age of 12 for a year and I have tutored children how to play piano for 2-3 years. I am very social, patient and fun and have loved my teaching jobs and would like to move onto babysitting kids and taking care of pets as well! I love arts and crafts, games, fun activities, teaching, animals and walks! I am also a fluent Spanish speaker and an intermediate German speaker. My mom has been a full time nanny for 15 years and I have learned a lot on how to be an excellent babysitter!

Katie was wonderful with our twin 7 year old boys!

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!

Hi there, my name is Sam! I’ve been working with kids since I could remember and I’ve always loved it. I used to work at Disney World so if your kids love Disney we’ll definitely get along. With my experience in childcare and other relational jobs I’ve had I’ve learned to become very patient, kind, attentive, flexible, trustworthy, and creative. I can help with cooking, laundry, and other light household duties. In my free time I enjoy reading (especially about leadership, self-development, and communication), staying physically active, and finding new recipes to try. Thank you again for your consideration and I hope to hear from you soon!

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.
