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! Im Krissy Wilgar! Im interested in your nanny position. I have been a nanny on and off for about 5 years now. When I was 16-18 years old (in high school), I was a nanny for a family with five kids. Two sets of twins and a baby. I have since picked up small jobs but am wanting more of a nanny position. After high school, I moved to Provo with my husband (now) while he plays football for BYU and attends school. During my time here I've been a Medical Assistant and Coordinator for a Residential Treatment Center in Heber. I was over 25-28 boys everyday. I took care of all their medical needs. Administering medications, calling in Rx, bringing them to appointments, worked one on one with the Psychiatrist while taking care of the boys and their records. I love babies, toddlers, teens, you name it! I have a big soft spot in my heart for kids. They are so pure. I hope we are able to meet :) Look forward to hearing from you Krissy

Hi! My name is Jen, and I recently moved to Missouri. Prior to relocating, I was a teacher for 22 years and a nanny while in college. I have mostly taught elementary and special education. I was a nanny while in college, and I have successfully raised two children of my own. I miss working with little ones, and I have no grandchildren yet, so I thought it would be awesome to work with a family with an infant. I can devote my entire attention to your child. I am trained in early child education and child development. I have a bachelor’s degree and two master’s degrees. I am fully aware of what babies and young children need to flourish and thrive. I’m kinda old school in that I believe in lots of singing and playing, going for walks and getting fresh air, and fully interacting with your child without a device or TV to distract us. I’m reliable, kind, compassionate, and I know how hard it is to have a little one and need to leave them with a new person. I have references, a reliable car, and lots of love to share!
