Kim $25 per hour for 1 child
Hey there! I am a single mom with one daughter who is 7-years-old. I am a former foster mom in the Chicago area and now that my girl is in school all day I am looking to fill my time. I have cared for children of all ages and we have both a cat and dog so I am good with animals too! I believe in strong boundaries, little screen time and being silly and having fun. Enjoy your time out and know your little ones are safe and giggling
Sarah $20 per hour for 1 child
I am a 22-year-old Boston University graduate who majored in psychology. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I have been working with children since my first job at the age of 13. In high school, I was a camp counselor for 3 and 4-year-olds. During that time, I babysat for many families I met while working at summer camp. Once I went to college, I worked in a child development lab where I worked with school-age children. I am CPR-certified. I have been surrounded by pets my whole life and feel very comfortable taking care of any pets whether they be cats, dogs, hamsters, etc.

I'm a fun, outgoing, and caring individual looking for part-time, flexible hours! I have a lot of experience with babies, toddlers, and elementary-age kids. When I'm not babysitting, I'm an actor around Chicago and teach theatre to kids ages 1-14, as a visiting teaching artist in preschools, elementary schools, and in special ed cluster classrooms. I have years of experience working with kids on the autism spectrum and pride myself on seeing all kids as whole, autonomous people. I love pets, arts and crafts, reading, and singing and dancing!
