Kara $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kara and I'm currently a sophomore at UIC studying theatre. I am offering childcare, cat sitting, and household services. I've always loved babysitting and have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids since I was fourteen (I have a really big family with lots of younger cousins who I've helped out with all my life), as well as worked at a daycare where I took care of children ages infant to five years old. Due to my theatre background I regularly include make believe play in my interactions with children, using different voices and mannerisms while asking the children questions and helping to build their imaginative skills. On top of that I've also been certified by the Red Cross in infant and regular CPR. I can also work as a household assistant and can clean and run errands. As I have my own cat I am more than comfortable with cat sitting and have done so for multiple family friends.

Oskar $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Oskar! I’m 25 years old and looking for a consistent babysitting position with a great family. While I don’t have formal childcare job experience, I’ve grown up around lots of younger cousins and am very comfortable caring for kids in a hands-on, responsible way. I’m dependable, patient, and fun to be around, and I always prioritize safety and structure. I’m most comfortable with potty-trained children and enjoy keeping kids engaged with activities, games, and routines that make them feel secure and happy. I’m also very comfortable with pets. I regularly dog-sit for a friend, so furry family members are never a problem! I’m looking for something consistent where I can build trust with a family and become someone both parents and kids can rely on.
