Hi there! My name is Alexa and I am based in North Center! I have about 15 years of experience working with kids and hope to get back into working with local families and babysitting again. I used to work with kids all the time but slowed down when I had a full-time job. I still have a full-time job however my schedule allows me afternoons free and I thought I would see if I can fill any afterschool/date night babysitting needs! I have worked with kids of all ages (newborn to preteens who just need overseeing to make sure the house doesn't burn down!) and was also a camp counselor for many summers in highschool and college. During college, I worked at Lakeshore Sport and Fitness as a daycare staff member and also ran their preschool transitions program as their lead team member. I ended up becoming a regular sitter for many families from Lakeshore (hence the lack of Urban Sitter activity!) I am open to regular date night sitting, after school sitting, overnights, weekend afternoons etc. I have worked with all age ranges and am comfortable with any and all. I drive but do not have my own car. In addition to sitting I am happy to help with light house work, and also any family events (kids birthdays set up, craft plans, coordinating, etc!) Please feel free to send me a message, and I am happy to provide references! Thank you!
“Alexa was punctual, quick to respond to messages or questions, and had a positive attitude. Alexa followed my instructions and seemed to enjoy playing with my 5mo son. ”

Hello there! I'm Camila, a 27 year-old passionate about childcare and babysitting. With over 6 years of experience working with babies and toddlers here in America, I've developed a deep love for spending time with little ones and nurturing their development. In addition to childcare, I'm also happy to lend a hand with cooking, cleaning, or any other household chores that need to be taken care of. Being pet-friendly, I'm comfortable around dogs and cats. If you're in need of a responsible and caring childcare provider who will treat your little ones—and furry friends—with love and attention, I'd love to chat further. Let's create a safe and happy environment for your family together! Looking forward to hearing from you soon! Best, Camila
Hi! My name is Dria and I am a college student studying in downtown Chicago at Roosevelt University. I am living in an apartment in Pilsen, and am available to work anywhere accessible by CTA! I am CPR and First Aid certified! I have 6 siblings, 3 of them being younger than me (2, 6, and 10 years younger!) so I have a lot of experience with kids of all ages. I have done a lot of summertime babysitting for family, friends, and more. I also worked as a Camp Counselor at a children’s summer camp! I can cook, clean, and of course ensure that your children are in a safe, comfortable, and fun environment!
Hello! My name is Bifei and I also go by Aviva. I am currently a graduate student. I offer child care, senior care, and household services. I have little experience with pets; but I LOVE animals and I am willing to learn! I used to work as an assistant teacher at the Goddard School; both in the West Loop location in Chicago and the Maplewood location in New Jersey. I have worked with children in a wide range of age groups. My responsibilities included teaching early education curriculums, managing outdoor play, arts & crafts, and cleaning.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
