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. Wherever your child's interests lie, child care providers on Sittercity can engage them in a nurturing way.

Hello! My name is AnnaClaire Lackney and I’m a school Speech-Language Pathologist serving grades PK-3rd. I’m originally from Cincinnati, OH but have recently relocated to Medina, OH. I’m looking to build relationships with families locally to provide quality childcare during my summer break, after-school, or weekends during the school year. I’ve always enjoyed working with the pediatric population and have been babysitting since 5th grade. I have provided childcare services while working at Barre 3's play lounge. I also was a nanny for multiple families for 10+ years! I’m excited to get to know you and your family!

I have 2 nieces and a nephew that I adore. Being around children gives you a fresh perspective that is needed within adult minds. I used to work at a daycare for about a year with kids ranging from month old babies to middle school children. I volunteered for the zoo and helped with the zoo camp. I also was able to teach a couple lessons to second graders. I used to tutor high school students and help them out with their homework. I also used to babysit and value outside time to play.

Hi, my name is Nicole, and I'm an experienced babysitter available to help you and your kids. I started babysitting around the age of 13 and by 16 had a regular after school babysitting job for a family I am still close with today. In past summers I was a summer camp counselor where I was able to work with kids of ages 5-16 of all different backgrounds. I also have experience in long term full time positions. I enjoy reading, writing, and art. Most importantly I love kids! I'm currently taking classes online to get my degree which gives me open availability and a flexible schedule. I have reliable references upon request. I am in Cleveland and have my own transportation so that is not a problem.

Hi there! I’m a 32 year old mom to two amazing little boys (ages 4 and 5), so I definitely understand the beautiful chaos of childhood! I have years of hands-on experience with babies, toddlers, and older kids too. I truly love building genuine connections with each child I care for. I’m basically a professional diaper changer, snack chef, and nose-wiper with expert-level skills in being silly, patient, and fun! I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I also keep anti-choking devices at home for extra peace of mind. I have a playground in my backyard with rubber playground safety surfacing too! When I’m not chasing my boys around, I’m working toward my degree in Human Resources (graduating next June!). I take pride in creating a safe, happy, and loving environment where kids can laugh, learn, and feel cared for, just like family.
