Hi there, my name is Courtney and I am currently 34 years old. I have my Master’s of Public Health and Bachelors in Communication. I have been babysitting for over 10 years for children of all ages, and have even worked in a pre-school. I believe in having a fun, educational time with the children I babysit while following all of the parent's rules. I am also an animal lover, so if you have any pets I would be happy to tend to them while watching your children! I look forward to getting to know you, and your kids!
“Courtney was great. Very attentive and a positive demeanor”
Hi everyone! I’m Jenny! I’m a Chicago-based professional who genuinely loves spending time with kids and creating a fun, safe, and caring environment for them. My love for childcare started when I was 15, when I began volunteering at a local daycare. Since then, I’ve continued to babysit occasionally for families in my community, and I especially love coming up with fun activities like arts and crafts, trips to the park, reading, and creative play. I’m also a very proud aunt to my niece and nephews, who have given me plenty of experience keeping up with little ones! I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and have a deep appreciation for different cultures and backgrounds. I recently graduated from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and now work professionally in the legal field, so I’m responsible, organized, and dependable. I’m available on weekends and most weekday evenings after 6:00 PM. I’d love to connect with families in the area and learn more about how I can help! I’m also happy to provide references upon request.
“Excellent sitter! Thoughtful, patient and very good with our 4 year old. We’ve hired her multiple times now ”
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!
