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.

Hi! I am currently searching for my next position, as my current family is moving. I have full availability starting in August/September! I am from Haddon Twp but now live in Blackwood/Gloucester Twp. I am a 32 year-old momma to an 8 year old girl. My ultimate goal is to earn my degree in nursing a focus in L&D or pediatrics. I've been sitting children since I was 10 years old. I've held various jobs from occasional sitting to long term nannying & mothers helper. I'm experienced with children from newborns to 12 years old, including many sets of multiples. I am the oldest of 6 children and many many cousins. Housekeeping, and food preparation are also not a problem! I believe in teaching children and allowing them to grow to be the absolute best they can be through activities, reading, and playing. I also know basic ASL to teach children, allowing them to better communicate when they have yet to learn how to speak. I was CPR certified, and I have absolutely no problem getting re certified or any additional certifications!

Hello, I'm Sheena! Here's a full biography about me: I'm looking forward to obtaining certs in English education and IT. Working and focusing on what I love doing enables me to continue to nurture children and develop skills to address children. My preference for right now, long term part-time and occasional help on the weekends. Although, if there’s an opportunity I will work full-time on the weekends. However, I love kids! They're the future and why I get up everyday to work and further my education . When I am not taking care of children. I tend to read, focus on my startups, and write poetry. My hobbies are writing, watching musicals, movies especially the Disney, DC and Marvel movies. I enjoy listening to music and going to exhibitions, hikes, drives, walks. Anything that captivates me. I'm a nice and talkative person who can easily get along with anyone if given the opportunity. I hope you give me a chance. Thanks to all the parents and families who took the time to read my bio and hopefully I can be your caregiver! Have a safe day!
