I am recently retired from a lengthy career in advertising sales. I currently have two part-time jobs and am looking to pet sit on the side for extra cash. I am frienly and outgoing and most people and animals like me. Regarding pets they must be friendly with me and other pets. I will need to visit a few days prior to see if your pet responds to me. I had to turn down a petsitting job because the dog did not take a liking to me and nipped at my calf muscle twice. I do have references. I do need to schedule petsitting gigs around my part-time jobs and I am available for overnight stays depending on my schedule. I am mature and you do not have to worrry about me inviting guests into your home. That will never happen with me.

Hello! My name is Julia and I am so excited to help you care for your little ones. I specialize in newborns and I am currently a registered nurse in the NICU. I have experience as a nurse in Labor & Delivery, specializing in postpartum care for mom and baby. I can help with many of your postpartum needs for you and your newborn. I am certified in CPR and Neonatal Resuscitation, and I am trained in developmentally appropriate care for infants. I am looking for part time hours on my off days with families with a newborn who are immediately postpartum, on parental leave, or getting ready to return to work after maternity/parental leave. I can also help families with a stay-at-home parent to watch baby while they run errands or need a self-care day. I can help with feedings, diaper changes, sleep schedules, laundry, cleaning bottles/pump parts, and bathing baby. I support breastfeeding and am comfortable bringing baby to mom for feedings. I have 5 years of total experience as a nanny with children of all ages, from 3mos - 10yrs. I have been a occasional babysitter, mother's helper, and summer nanny. I am great with kids of all ages! *While I am a registered nurse, I cannot offer medical care for you or your family members. I CAN offer an unmatched sense of security and safety for you, your baby, and your other children.

Hi, I'm T! I have worked in early childhood for three years and I adore working with children. I have a full time job as a assistant teacher at a daycare and I am enrolled in university to become the best teacher ever! I am CPR and first aid certified, and a mandated reporter. I have worked with children from all backgrounds. I have learned basic Spanish and will enjoy creating fun experiences with your family.

Hi there! My name is Jessica and I am a high school teacher within Chicago Public Schools. I majored in history education and went on to earn my Master's in Instructional Design, along with an additional certification in special education. I have a wealth of experience working with young people in many capacities, including teaching, tutoring, babysitting, nannying, and coaching varsity volleyball. I am truly passionate about helping children and teens learn, grow, and have fun! Because of my background, I am highly skilled in helping kids manage their behavior and emotions in a positive way that includes them in the process. A little more about me: I am originally from Ohio and have been living and teaching here in Chicago for the past seven years. When I'm not in the classroom or babysitting, my hobbies include hiking, rock climbing, reading, and spending quality time with my dog, Peanut! I look forward to meeting your family!
