We seek a caring and engaging babysitter for our fun and active 3-year-old son starting in early August (ideally starting August 4, 2025, but can be flexible for the right fit). We are looking for support with daycare pick-up 3-4 days per week until mom & dad are done with work (hours approx 430pm-7pm; 10-12 hrs per week total with additional babysitting opportunities). The babysitter will pick-up from daycare in Lincoln Park, walk or take CTA bus home, engage and play with our son, provide a snack and sometimes prepare simple meals. Experience with preschool-aged children is important. The ideal candidate is responsible, patient, and has excellent communication skills. A background check and 2 references required.
