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.

Michelle helped me remotely take care of my senior father with Parkinson's in Florida while I lived in California. He was in an Assisted Living Facility and she checked in on him weekly, spending time with him, and keeping me updated on his level of care. She was such a blessing during a stressful time when he was in and out of the hospital. She kept me updated about his care and concerns she had at the facility (like him getting his meds on time) and he was always so happy to have her visit. She was very sweet, communicative, and caring and I'd be happy to recommend her to other families looking for some additional care.
