Hello! I’m an outgoing childcare expert who taught global policy to middle school and high school students for six years. In this role, I received ongoing training in childhood education and development. Currently I am working on writing and publishing a memoir. I’m a graduate of Northwestern University, where I majored in Economics and Political Science, and last year I completed my masters in Political Sociology at the London School of Economics and Political Science. I come from a large family, and I enjoy working with children. My childcare experience includes infants through high school age. I have also tutored extensively on many levels, including grade school math, high school English, and college economics. For fun I like to cook and play Ultimate Frisbee. Thank you for your consideration, and I hope to meet some of you soon. :)

Hi! My name is Julia and I’m a college grad from DePaul. I have my bachelors in psychology with a concentration in human development, and currently work full time as a nanny to a 2 year old girl and two elementary aged boys. I love working with all ages of kids, and am hoping to find parents looking for a regular date night sitter on the weekends when I am not nannying. I have my own car for transportation, and am comfortable working with pets. Aside from my current nannying job, I have been working with children for the last 8 years throughout high school and college. I am CPR certified and feel comfortable caring for children over 6 months of age. I enjoy getting creative and having fun with the kids I sit for, and am also very comfortable at handling bed times and getting kiddos to sleep. I’m happy to set up a phone call or zoom meeting to chat further if you are interested :)

“Julia was a joy to have with our children and handled them with care and professionalism. A great combo of responsibility & fun!”

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!

I am an ECE major and infant nanny with a passion for the littles! I found an introduction into this path working as a babysitter for my infant and toddler aged nephews and cousins in highschool. While in school to obtain my bachelor’s, I have worked in clinics, in home, and middle school doing ABA therapy, and as a lead teacher in a preschool. I love spending time at the beach, enjoying nature, or watching movies and cuddling with my two cats. I am comfortable feeding, changing, preparing meals for children, helping with academicsㅤ, light household work for children such as laundry, and assisting to care for pets in the home.

“Summer was wonderful! We would love to have her over again.”
