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.

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!

Hello! :) My name is Charity, and I love kids. I've been raised around babies and small children my whole life as well as have 3 siblings. I've babysat for at least 2 families on a fairly regular basis, as well as babysat lots of other kiddos! I'm a junior in college studying Elementary Education and can't wait one day to have my own little ones. I treat every kid as I would my own. I'd love to find a family who could use help especially during the summer or whenever I'm available. I'm not certified, however I did have some first aid training in high-school, and can definitely get references if you have any questions. :)
