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! My name is Lorraine. I care for a couple of children here in my Cortland home. I provide a warm, loving, and home-like setting where children are able to remain with one caregiver for years, which can help develop a sense of trust and security. I have been providing in-home child care for twenty years. Whether you are changing childcare providers or starting childcare for the first time, I understand how hard it can be for both the parents and children involved. Finding childcare that meets your needs and at the same time finding a provider that you feel you can entrust with your child can be very nerve racking. I feel it is very important for the parents and the provider to have a very open and friendly relationship to best meet the needs of the children. A few of my favorite activities to do with children are reading stories and doing arts and crafts. I take pride in how satisfied I have been able to keep the families that have chosen me as their childcare provider. I really do love the children that we welcome into our home and would be honored to care for your child also. Thank you for considering my home for your child's enjoyment and development! I hope to hear from you soon!
