My husband and I are expecting a baby girl (our first) in Feb 2025. I am 34 and have had a rough go with my health. I had thyroid surgery in 2021 and endometriosis excision surgery in 2023. After giving birth I will have a hysterectomy.
We want to find a sitter who can be with us long term. I don't work now but it is possible that I'd go back sometime in 2026 or 2027.

Starting in March of 2025 I would like 10-15 hours of support each week on Mon and/or Wed and/or Fridays (1 to 3 days per week- I can be flexible with your availability). I would like the sitter to watch the baby, feed the baby, do laundry, and occasionally grocery shop.
We are off of the L(Graham Stop) a few blocks from Cooper Park. My husband works from home M-F.

I'm looking for someone who's knowledgable in early childhood development and who is very communicative and active with the child (think toys, books, small talk, stroller trips to the park, teaching vocabulary through interaction).
