Someone to sit with mum on Tuesdays this weekend

Chicago, Illinois · MidwestPosted 21 Jul 2026 by Renee T.

What's needed

I'm a single parent working shifts and time is tight. Everything needed is already here, so it's really just the time and a spare pair of hands. I can cover the cost of any materials, I just can't do the job myself. Thank you for reading — it means a lot that people look out for each other round here. I'm based in Chicago, Illinois.

How helping works

  1. 1. Send a message. Say what you could do and when you're free — there's no obligation on either side.
  2. 2. Agree the details. Renee T. picks who to reply to and you sort out timing between you.
  3. 3. Lend a hand. Once it's sorted, the listing is closed so nobody else offers unnecessarily.

Helping is always free and voluntary. If anything feels wrong, report the listing and our moderators will look into it.
