Trusted, Caring & Dependable Childcare for Children of All Ages. Finding someone you can truly trust with your children is important. I provide attentive, nurturing care for children of all ages, with a strong focus on their safety, comfort, and individual needs. I currently babysit occasionally and have years of hands-on experience caring for children. As a mother of two adult daughters, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a positive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I’m respectful of each family’s routines and parenting preferences. I also have excellent references, reliable transportation, and flexible availability with advance notice. My goal is simple: to give parents peace of mind while their children are in my care. I’d be happy to connect and learn more about your childcare needs.

Diaw is great, very helpful taking care of infants and toddlers!

Hi there! I’m a 27-year-old with extensive experience caring for children ages 6 weeks to 16 years. My background includes babysitting, working as a camp counselor (both day and overnight), and serving in an early childhood education center. I also have significant experience working with kids with disabilities. I’m dedicated, compassionate, and ready to provide a safe and engaging environment for your little ones.

Molly helped us out majorly when a babysitter cancelled and we ended last minute coverage. She was great with the kids and I will definitely be hiring her again!

Hi, UrbanSitter families! 👋 I’m a lifelong Chicago-area resident, mom of three, and a trusted, experienced caregiver who truly loves working with kids of all ages. I’m a non-smoker, fully COVID-vaccinated and boosted, and I prioritize safety and reliability in everything I do. Caring for children has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been a paid babysitter since my teens, am the oldest of six siblings, and spent 10 years as a Girl Scout leader—planning activities, leading overnight camping trips, and even international travel! While a GS leader, I maintained annual infant/child CPR and First Aid certification for a decade. Families describe me as punctual, dependable, calm, and creative. I love doing crafts, imaginative play, and reading. I’m always happy to help with meals and leave your space clean and organized after our time together. I have extensive experience with infants, toddlers, school-age children, and multiple siblings. I was state-registered as a respite caregiver for children with special needs for several years, and currently provide ongoing mentorship and care for a teen on the autism spectrum. Availability: I’m looking to support families during evenings and weekends. I have a standing commitment with another family on Sunday mornings but am available weeknights and most weekend days and evenings. A little more about me: I’m an art enthusiast, knitter, runner, and problem-solver. I’m happy to share access to my (privacy-protected) social media accounts so you can get to know me better, and I always welcome a call or Zoom chat before booking to be sure we’re a great fit. Booking details: • Mon–Thurs: 2.5-hour minimum • Fri–Sun: 4-hour minimum • Cancellations: – Less than 12 hours’ notice: 50% of booking – Less than 4 hours’ notice: 100% of booking I’d love to get to know your family and be a caring, dependable part of your village 💛
