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.

Q: How does a child care provider interact with my child?

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 nanny looking for extra part-time work to help make ends meet. If you’re looking for after school care or a date night sitter, I’d love to help! I’m interactive, gentle but structured. I can prepare meals, do light housecleaning, read, color, play games, help with homework, whatever would be needed.

I have a love for kids. I taught Sunday school for 15 years of all ages and I realized that kids are my favorite people. I learn more from them than from anyone else. They are such a blast to be around. I have babysat for one family consistently for 2 years now. They have three daughters but I’m looking to branch out to something more full time.

I am a school psychologist with 13 years of teaching experience (elementary special education). I am employed full-time but looking to supplement my income. As far as experience, I grew up babysitting family, neighbors and friends of neighbors. This was pretty regular from 5th grade through high school. I was a nanny for over a year (ages 3 months through 20 months) 20 years ago.
