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.

I love working with children! I’m currently working towards my associates in early childhood education at YSU. I have two young sister ones 5 and the other is 7. I have worked with children in different settings since I was 15. I teach swim lessons to children ages 5 and up in the summer. I have taught swim lessons at the JCC of Youngstown ranging from babies to adults. I currently work at Lynne’s little daycare and preschool in Hubbard, oh. I mostly work with the infants and toddlers, but occasionally I get to work with the older children! I coach the East Palestine Marching Band colorguard. I love working with children and watching them grow and know that I took part in their development. I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED. I am BCI and FBI background checked. I am also certified in Child Abuse recognition and Communicable disease.

Hi! I’m a junior in college majoring in Primary Education (K–5) with a duel major focused on intervention and special education. I’ve always loved working with children and started babysitting for family friends at age 14. Since then, I’ve continued to build experience both through babysitting and hands-on work in my education program. This spring, I had the opportunity to work in a kindergarten classroom through my college placement, and I absolutely fell in love with that age group! In addition to my experience with a variety of school-age children, I have also cared for infants and am comfortable working with a wide range of ages. I have reliable transportation and currently work as a server, but I have consistent morning availability and can be flexible with advance notice. I would describe myself as organized, dependable, and detail-oriented—I genuinely enjoy keeping spaces clean, structured, and running smoothly. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children to learn and grow!

Hello! My name is KelCee Duris and I am a 19 year old incoming college freshman. I am studying journalism at YSU! I have classes 5 days a week but they all end by 1:00 so I will be free evenings 7 days a week. I am very responsible and patient when it comes to caring for kids from growing up as one of the oldest cousins in my family. I am not yet CPR certified but I have started training! I would love to be a regular in the evenings after my schooling!

Hi, I am an upbeat, fun, and energetic person who loves hanging out with the kiddos. I have 4 years of experience as a nanny for two young boys with autism. This experience has taught me the importance of routines, continual patience, and helped me to find creative ways to motivate students. As a caregiver, I am always ready for an adventure, liking going to the park or making an exciting craft!
