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.

I am a nursing student at Salem Community College and would love to continue babysitting while still in school! I have been babysitting for close family’s in my neighborhood since I was in early high school! While it started out as just occasional jobs, it progressed into watching kids daily after school. I have experience helping young ones with homework, building legos or crafts, going on walks or other outdoor activities and potty training. A passion of mine is horse back riding, as I have had my own horses for around 8 years now! Growing up with horses, it teaches you responsibility over an animal, as you’re responsible for their wellbeing and safety, but also how to have fun outside and connect with nature.
