Aralena $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Aralena and I am a full time graduate student who just moved to the state of Illinois. I recently graduated in May 2026 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Microbiology from Louisiana State University. I may be new to UrbanSitter but I have many years of experience working with kids and I love to do it! I have worked in daycares, party centers, and have lead children closely within a church setting. I have experience working with all ages ranging from infants to 12 years old. I have years of experience with meal times, sleeping, changing clothes, changing diapers, and play time. I have worked with children with disabilities (physical and mental) and have experience working with pets, specifically cats. I have my own cat! I love music (I can play 8 instruments!), reading, and cooking. I would love to help your family with anything needed!

Growing up my grandma owned a daycare and I would help her take care of kids and plan arts and crafts time for them. I also have recent experience over the past 2 summers of working at a stay away camp looking over multiple different age groups of kids over the age of 6 full time. After my first summer I was promoted to leader of my cabin group and have learned to keep things together, better my communication, and still keep kids happy! Pets wise, I have 3 cats and a dog so I know how to manage!

Hi! I have been working with kids for 15 years. I love playing music and games with the children I work with. I also like to bake and cook teaching the kids valuable skills as well. In the past five years I have babysat children ranging from 6 months old to 12 years old. I nannied and did e-learning/school during the pandemic with a first grader and fifth grader with a range of responsibilities from preparing meals to helping complete classwork to planning activities for the day. I am currently going back to school to be a special education teacher.

“Aileen really helped us out; had a different sitter cancel an hour before and Aileen stepped in quick! Kids had a great time, Aileen was so helpful, and I would definitely have her sit again!!”

Hi! My name is Yazzy and I’m currently a regent graduate from Columbia College Chicago. I am offering childcare services & pet services. I love being a babysitter and I’ve worked as a nursery worker until recently so I have several experiences with newborns, infants, and toddlers since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included crafts, tutoring, and meal prep. I also work as a photography assistant and can take your family portraits! I have four dogs of my own and I’m very comfortable around all pets & will treat your fur-babies as one of my own.
