Paul 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Darien, 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!! :)

Breanna $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Breanna. I currently work in childcare and have over 3 years of experience caring for children from infancy through school age. I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, play, and feel safe while their parents are away. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with everything from meals and bedtime routines to crafts, outdoor play, and keeping kids engaged throughout the day. My goal is always to create a fun, caring, and dependable environment where children feel happy and parents have peace of mind.

Booked by 1 family in Darien, 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.
