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’m an extroverted and social sitter! As someone who comes from a larger family, babysitting was a must. In high school I used to volunteer to teach younger girls how to dance. This had sparked the love for working with kids! Though with no “actual” experience I felt this seemed like a good part-time gig. That being said I’d be happy to connect with kids and have fun with any personality.

I’m moving back to the Appleton area after spending a year in Madison! I like spending time at the park, bike rides, and attempting to draw. I started babysitting when I was 11 or 12, so it’s been a while. I’ll have a part time job at Athleta and am looking for something else to go along with that! While in Madison I was an assistant manager at Banana Republic.

I love being a sitter because it's super rewarding to watch them learn and grow while you're helping them out. Plus, every day is different and you get to be creative with activities and games. I've had the chance to babysit for two different families before, which has been an incredible experience. With both families, I looked after their daughters both around 6-7 years old after school, creating fun art projects and outdoor games to keep them entertained. Also, I'm CPR certified and staff at Greenville Middle School until 2 PM every day, so I'm constantly around kids and know how to handle different situations.
