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. Babysitters and nannies have the option to complete regular background checks, and you can easily request a recent background check if they don’t have one or it is not recent.

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.

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy being around kids and creating a safe, fun space for them. I like helping families feel supported and knowing that parents can relax and trust me. Watching kids learn, laugh, and grow always brightens my day. I’ve been babysitting since I was younger for different families and have about two years of steady experience with one family. Through my time caring for kids, I’ve also learned a lot about Montessori-style care and positive guidance—helping children build independence, emotional awareness, and kindness in everyday moments. I’m CPR, first aid, and AED certified, and know how to respond safely if something unexpected happens. I’m familiar with using positive guidance to encourage growth and good behavior. I’m organized, caring, and dependable, and I love finding creative ways to keep kids engaged—whether that’s crafts, outdoor play, or helping with schoolwork.

I'm passionate about helping little ones grow and develop, which led me to become a childcare provider. I've been caring for children for 5 years and have experience with children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I'm comfortable caring for up to 5 children at a time and am happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I'm a patient, calm, and friendly individual who loves playing with children. We can enjoy outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games together. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and always follow the parents' preferred method of communication. Whether it's through verbal communication at pickup or regular updates via text or phone call, I'm committed to keeping parents informed about their child's day and any issues that arise.

I am an auntie, an educator, and a caretaker! I am an aunt to 17 —yes, 17 —nieces and nephews ranging from 1-year-old to 17 years old. I've been an aunt since I was 10, so I've always been around little ones and I love it! I love watching them succeed, share in their joy, and help carry the burden of sorrows. Plus, getting to watch little people grow into who they'll be as adults is just an awesome experience. During the school year, I am a special education paraprofessional who works with kiddos on the autism spectrum along with other learning disabilities. I am CPI, CPR, and First Aid certified.
