City of Chicago and Sittercity, America’s first online resource for in-home care, today announced a new program to help Chicago’s most essential workforce – healthcare workers, first responders and the teams who support them – continue to work on behalf of the city amid COVID-19. A new, dedicated website – sittercity.com/chicagoresponds – will allow nurses and doctors, cafeteria workers and firefighters, and anyone else deemed an essential part of the infrastructure helping Chicago stay safe, to find reliable childcare to allow them to continue their crucial work.  The City of Chicago and Sittercity will provide three free months of Sittercity Premium and will connect those on the frontlines of fighting this crisis with volunteers to help care for their families during this time. Those interested in volunteering, and those in need of childcare, can register on sittercity.com/chicagoresponds.
