Jessica $25 per hour for 1 child

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!

Chloe $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have worked with children of all ages for over 10 years. My mother established her career in early childhood in the 90's and has successfully stayed in business for over 20 years. I have worked in the early childhood field since 2016. I have also worked in the legal field supporting lawyers who specialize in the safety and upbringing of children (GAL). I have cared for all age groups. I am also a university graduate. I teach and lead with love, and because of it, I still have beautiful relationships with all of the children who have been in my care, many now teenagers andyoung adults! My experience as a child care provider has included caring for children at hotels while their parents went out for a night on the town (and bringing something fun to help the transition be easier for parents and their children). I love kids because they are JUST awesome! Also, I am always up for negotiating when it comes to cost of childcare.

Paul $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Paul and I’m currently a sophomore at Miami University. I offer babysitting, pet care, and house care services. I've always enjoyed spending time with children, whether it's with cousins or other family members—and I'm great at making sure they’re entertained and safe! I'm happy to help with all kinds of activities, including games, reading, and bedtime routines. I also love animals and can provide care for any of your furry friends, including feeding, walks, and playtime. If you need help around the house—cleaning, organizing, or running errands—I’d be happy to assist. I’ll be heading back to school at the end of the summer, but I’m available to help whenever I can before then. Feel free to reach out if you think I’d be a good fit for your family!
