Q: How do families hire trustworthy child care providers in {{city}}, {{state}}?

Families find trustworthy child care providers on Sittercity who are passionate about providing safe and enriching care for their children. Many providers report they are First Aid and CPR certified to provide the best care for your family.

Q: What’s the difference between a nanny and a babysitter?

Nannies and babysitters share the same primary responsibility of providing safe and enriching care for your child, but there are a few differences between them. Nannies are more commonly associated with regular work, whether full or part-time, offering daily or consistent care to a particular family. There are also several different types of nannies, including au pairs, house managers, doulas, live-in, and overnight nannies. Babysitters, on the other hand, are typically hired for irregular or occasional work, either full or part-time. If you’re looking for last-minute care for date night, or the occasional few hours after school, a babysitter is a great best option. Identifying the type and frequency of child care you’ll need is the best way to decide whether a babysitter or nanny is a better fit for your family.

Child care providers on Sittercity love providing enriching experiences for your children, and sharing their passions with them.

Hey everyone! I have been babysitting and nannying for as long as I can remember, I love kids. I have worked with newborns up to 14 years old, so I am very comfortable with all ages. I graduated from Florida State University in December with my Master of Science in Criminology. I have taught swimming and diving lessons so I am comfortable with kids doing all outdoor activities. Depending on the child’s age I like to read books, go outside, and play enriching games. I am a very interactive babysitter! I am vaccinated and I attend church regularly, so if that is something you are looking for, I offer that! I also have reliable transportation and a clean driving record! I can't wait to meet you and your little ones!
