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.

I love watching children, love to share their experiences and bond with them. I enjoy their discoveries and I love to read stories and make up ones too! They learn from watching us and from us helping them to explore their world! I will say my favorite thing is art and using things around the home to create!

Hi! I’m Jenna, and I’ve been babysitting and nannying for about 8 years. I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy connecting with kids and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. I have experience working with children of all ages, from infants to elementary-aged kids, through both long-term nannying and regular babysitting. I’ve also spent years caring for and leading children through my church, which has helped me develop strong skills in patience, communication, and managing multiple children at once. I’m CPR and AED certified for infants and children, and safety is always my top priority. I love doing crafts, creative activities, and age-appropriate cooking and baking with kids. I’m dependable, attentive, and always strive to support both children and their families in a positive, encouraging way.

I absolutely love children. I think they are precious and God’s perfect gift. I love playing with small children and seeing them laugh. I used to watch my baby cousin who is now almost six years old. He has Down syndrome. When he came home from the hospital he instantly became my baby. I learned how to feed him through his g-tube, change his diapers, give him medication, give him baths, make his bottles when he was an infant, put him to sleep, etc. I am good at learning things fast. With my baby cousin I had to learn how to be gentle, especially when holding him around his stomach, and I had to learn how to take care of a special needs child. I have also watched other children on some instances.
