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! I’m Khylie Remmenga. I’m 18 years old and currently a senior at Cardinal Newman High School. After graduation, I’ll be attending Oral Roberts University, where I’m excited to continue my volleyball career at the Division I level. I’ve been babysitting for a year, but caring for kids has been part of my life for much longer. As the oldest of three, I grew up helping with my younger siblings and learned early on how to be patient, responsible, and attentive. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children—whether we’re playing fun games, being creative, or relaxing with a good movie. I always aim to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment for the kids I watch. I’d love the chance to get to know your family and help make your life a little easier!

Hey Parents, My name is Enira. I have 5 years of childcare experience both Babysitting and Nannying. I also have experience with children with medical conditions and needs as well. I am more that willing to provide potty training, homework help, bathing, outdoor play, and indoor activities to reduce screen time. I set up activities that will help with independent problem solving, cognitive development, and fine motor skills. As well as cause and effect whether it’s with a science experiment or explaining why we don’t dump our paint into the carpet. In my free time I tend to enjoy reading books or learning to play the guitar. If I’ not outdoors hunting, working on my truck, or building something for the farm my boyfriend and I are building. During the week I work as a Nanny Monday- Thursday from 8am to 5pm.

Hello, my name is Kayla! I am a caring and down to earth person. I enjoy reading and being outside in my free time. I love being a babysitter because I enjoy helping others and being around children, making sure they are happy and taken care of. Every child in my care never fails to have a smile on their face and want to see me again. I have helped close family and friends countless of times take care of their children. Ages ranging from newborn to 16 years of age. Another kind of experience that I have is I have taken care of my little sister and raised her since she was a new born. She is practically like my own child who I love deeply. I am able to help potty train, change diapers, help with homework or projects. I am able to clean your home and do chores to make your lives easier, especially after a long day. I am also good with pets and pet care. I love and adore animals and even have a few of my own. I’m good at cooking and preparing meals for the child or teen. I can prep and prepare bottles for the littles one as well. I’m good at burping babies and helping relieve uncomfortable gas bubbles. Im good at helping children when they get sick and caring for them. I have experience with autistic and Down syndrome children as well. Every child is special and I love and accept every child for who they are regardless. I enjoy playing and spending time with them. Especially educational games for the little ones or bed time stories. I’m studying in college to become a behavioral/trauma therapist. I can understand and pay attention to emotions and know how to help. After all they are just children/teens trying to learn how to manage these big emotions they can’t quite fully understand. sometimes they just need compassion over discipline. Every child deserves to be listened to and able to express how they feel. In my care your children and teen will be safe, loved, and taken care of as if they were my own. I am open to meeting in person or on Zoom before hand to see if I am the perfect fit for you. You can also reach me at my cell (803)-809-5932. I hope to hear from you!

Hi! I am an Rn who is in between assignments and looking to do something I enjoy. I have been babysitting since age 12 and have experience babysitting my niece and nephew since they were born. I don't mind cleaning, making meals, pets or transportation. I am willing to try to help with homework too. Mostly, I love kids and getting to know each of their unique personalities. I would be grateful for the opportunity to work with you and your family!
