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.

The past 3 years I gained valuable experience providing regular childcare for multiple families, caring for children in ages ranging from 4 months to 11 years. I would usually watch 1-3 children at a time, occasionally overnight, facilitating fun, hands-on, and educational care. I am currently a student at BGSU Firelands pursuing my bachelor’s degree in social work. I also work as a lifeguard at Castaway Bay, however the season is wrapping up so I will have more time. Being a lifeguard I am First Aid and CPR certified with experience in dealing with emergency situations. I also have a passion for art and love experiencing the world through travel. I am looking for position that works well with my school schedule where I can learn and grow my skills. Above all I have a passion for working with children and am eager to find a role where I can positively engage with and support them.
