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.

Child care providers on Sittercity love providing enriching experiences for your children, and sharing their passions with them.

Hi! I’m Tailor, I’m 21, and I have worked with kids my whole life! I am the oldest of 5 little sisters, so I have watched them since they were babies. I have babysat for friends and family, and have volunteered at a local church’s nursery to watch kids of all ages. I love working with kids, and have worked with multiple kids at once, along with pets. I played sports all of high school so I can be active, but I also love to read, write, do art, and watch TV so I can easily relate to children who aren’t as active too! I can cook and clean if needed, and I am very good at not leaving messes behind. I have worked with pets as well, so I’m comfortable with pets being in the house! I am very accommodating to the children’s needs, the parents requests, and I respect the home and people!

I've been babysitting since I was about 16 for various families in my neighborhood and my church! I have experience babysitting for families with anywhere from 1-4 kids, primarily elementary-school aged. I am a senior psychology major at the college of Wooster, so given this background plus my years of experience babysitting, I consider myself a kind and capable babysitter. I love getting to play with kids, whether it's outdoors playing catch or board games on a rainy day! One of my favorite parts about babysitting is the fun conversations I get to have with kids and learn about how they view the world!
