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. Babysitters and nannies have the option to complete regular background checks, and you can easily request a recent background check if they don’t have one or it is not recent.

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’m recently back to Utah from living in Texas. While I was there in Texas I worked for 4 different families, all with variously different needs for care and routines. I’ve been babysitting for as long as I can remember. Around the age of 12 years old I remember watching some neighbors kids who I would make sure were fed and cleaned up and in bed. Then afterwards cleaning up the house once they were asleep. I enjoy seeing children’s face light up when learning something new and the pure imagination they have learning to understand this world. I’d love to have a family I can grow with and get to know well. I’m caring, great active listener, have worked with kids with special needs, I enjoy planning and sharing age appropriate activities, and overall really would just love to have some awesome kids to work with.

Hello! My name is Roxanne. I am a seasoned nanny/caregiver with over 20 years of experience. I have also worked with children/adults with disabilities for most of this time as I was a respite caregiver with California Respite Care and the San Bernardino Regional Center. I have extensive experience supervising infants to teens, and multiple children. I moved to Utah from California a year and a half ago and absolutely LOVE it here. I had to say goodbye to the family I worked with for the last 6 years (2 awesome little monkeys I adore). Mama Bear is a doctor, so I worked her atypical schedule (every other week from 2-8, some holidays, some over-nighters, etc.). My "duties" included light housekeeping, meal/snack prep, school drop off/pick up, karate lessons, gymnastic practices, dentist appointments, having LOTS of fun, and loving on the kiddos as if they were my own family. I have been told I am a big kid at heart so its easy for me to "GET DOWN IN IT" with them. In my spare time I enjoy crafting, reading, watching movies, being out in nature, and spending time with my family. I have been married to my hubby/best friend for 26 years. I always wanted a tribe of kids, but it just wasn't in our cards. My good Lord has blessed us with lots of nieces/nephews and 5 wonderful godchildren we have had the privilege of helping to raise. I have a reliable vehicle (SUV to keep your precious cargo as safe as possible) with excellent insurance coverage. As you can see, I have done the extensive background checks to help assure you I am a safe place for your family. In this crazy world I KNOW how scary it is to leave your little ones in the hands of a "stranger". I am completely confident upon our meeting, you will know they are in good hands.
