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.

Hello, A little about myself; I've always loved babysitting when I was younger, I graduated from Newark Catholic and Child Care at C-Tech in 1997, then went on to Nanny school in College. Sullivan University in Louisville, Ky. Graduated in 1999. After graduation I worked as a nanny until I moved back to Ohio. Unfortunately I could not find a Nanny position locally and I decided to take another path in my job field in auto parts. I am a mother, to a 20-year-old son who's in college and I've decided to see if there is a family that needs a nanny again, so here I am! Please send me a message. 😊

My Junior & Senior years in high school I went to a Vocational School where I studied Early Childhood Education. I've worked in public child care settings off and on for 8 years. I went to The Ohio State University - Newark for 3 years where I also studied Early Childhood Education. I have cared for my niece and nephew off and on since they were born. I was a Nanny for a family with 5 children for about a year, including one child with special needs. I am CPR/First Aid certified. I have 25+ years of care experience for children of all ages. I have experience with multiples and newborn sleep training. I'm looking for a job that is reliable and a family that is very open with communication. If there is ever an issue I'd want everyone to be open with each other. One thing you should know about me is I am very dependable and always on time. (Mostly early!) I also have reliable transportation so that should never be an issue.
