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.

Q: How does a child care provider interact with my child?

Child care providers on Sittercity love providing enriching experiences for your children, and sharing their passions with them. They're happy to participate in outdoor activities like sports, or indoor activities like music, baking, tutoring help, and art.

Hello! My name is Madeline Stacy, but I go by Maddie. I have been a paid babysitter since I was 15 years old and have always loved working with kids. I love it so much that I got a degree in Theatre Education. This means I am qualified to teach K-12 theatre. I have experience working with children ages 0-18, though I have always enjoyed working with the younger children and students. I believe this experience helps me in my childcare services because I have learned conflict-resolution, task management, time management, as well as budgeting skills as a result. I am open to being a nanny as well.

Along with my experience, I am CPR/First Aid/AED certified as well as a newborn care specialist. I have my degree in pharmaceutical science. I have reliable transportation and I'm a non-smoker. I have experience with every age from newborn up to 13 years old, preemie, twins, multiples and special needs. If you have any questions or are interested please feel free to let me know!
