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. They're happy to participate in outdoor activities like sports, or indoor activities like music, baking, tutoring help, and art.

I’m a senior in Highschool and have a strong passion for taking care of children. I’ve had in school CPR training as well as experience with childcare in a child development course. I take online college courses through Kent State University, so I leave school at 10:45 in the morning. My schedule makes me very flexible. I recently got my license, so I am currently not completely comfortable driving with children but as time goes on and I gain experience I will be. I am skilled at cooking, cleaning, laundry, tutoring etc. My family is full of children and over the years I have gained experience with taking care of them. I am very punctual and sociable, and am susceptible to instruction and rules. If you are interested please send me a message/ request a meeting! (either in person or call!).
