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 there! My name is Jadyn, and I’m a full-time Certified Clinical Medical Assistant with over 5 years of experience in healthcare. I’m also certified in CPR, BLS, phlebotomy (CPT), and non-violent crisis intervention—so safety and preparedness are always top priorities for me. I am also a college student working toward getting my degree in Nursing. Before entering the medical field, I gained hands-on babysitting experience in high school caring for two wonderful girls—a toddler and a young child. That early experience sparked my love for working with children. Although I do not have direct care-taking experience with special needs children, I believe my experiences working in healthcare have well-prepared me to do so. I’m dependable, communicative, and lead an active, healthy lifestyle. Whether it’s engaging in creative play, helping with routines, or ensuring a safe and nurturing environment, I bring a calm, confident presence to every family I work with. I’d love to support your family with compassionate, reliable care!

Hi there! 👋 I’m a working professional and mom, returning to babysitting to make a little extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy. I have over 6 years of experience as a professional nanny and sitter, and I’m now also a mom to the love of my life—my 19-month-old daughter, Kiah. Depending on the arrangement, Kiah may be with me during care, but not always. She’s sweet, social, and loves playing with other kids—especially those close in age! We’re a fun, travel-loving family with a dog (Bentley) and a cat (Prince), so I’m very comfortable around pets. I can watch children under 5 in your home or mine (I’m located near a great park!) and am open to caring for up to 2–3 children at a time. I’m also happy to assist with pickups and drop-offs depending on timing and location. I’m available weekdays after 3:30 PM and some weekends. This idea actually came to me while looking for help myself—so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit!
