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 am 20 years old. I come from a huge family so I have always been around kids and taken care of kids of all ages up to 8 years old. I am good at finding activities to do with them as well as keeping them on schedule if they are on one. The responsibilities I’ve had in the past are putting the kids down for naps, snack time/ lunch. I also like cooking so that would not be a problem.

Hello dear families! I'm looking for opportunities to help your family on an occasional basis. I'm available for date nights and weekends. I work FT during the week and have my own transportation. I've been an Au-pair for three wonderful families with kids in between 2 and 11 years old, pets always being a big and important part of the families as well. After my last au pair experience I worked as a FT Nanny for an amazing family and their 14 months old little lady, following a season working in a high school as a Distance Learning Assistant in the Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools district in NC. I have a diverse background and have used au-pairing and 'nannying' as a great tool to explore different places, and immerse myself deeper in the US culture. I'm a native Spanish speaker, originally from Venezuela and a Materials Engineer by profession. My whole path ended up taking me into working in different areas like tourism, winemaking, childcare, among others. I'm currently based in NOVA and do volunteer at a doggies and kitties shelter in the area. I'm more than happy to answer any questions you may have, listen to your needs, so we can work together towards fulfilling then and hopefully become part of your amazing journey! Thank you, Rebeca

As a former stay-at-home mom of 3 adult children, 2 sons and 1 daughter, I have had on-the-job training with all age groups from newborns to college graduates! My children attended an independent, private school where I was an active volunteer throughout and a substitute teacher in the lower and middle schools for 7 years. People who know me consider me to be a warm, loving, honest, trustworthy and responsible individual. I am a mature woman who is college educated, health conscious, physically fit, neat and clean and a non-smoker. I have recent full-time newborn care experience and hope to be placed as a Nanny, for your little one(s), in your child-proofed home. As they grow, I will give them lots of TLC and interact with them in age appropriate activities. I also know how to cook, clean, do laundry and iron - and I am good! - so I can help you with all of that, as well!! Further, I’m Red Cross Certified in Adult & Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED. I look forward to hearing from you real soon! NOTE: My home-base is Conneaut Lake, PA.
