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. They're happy to participate in outdoor activities like sports, or indoor activities like music, baking, tutoring help, and art.

Hello my name is Josh. I have been caring for kids since I about 13. I'd describe my personality as energetic, fun, kindhearted, caring, nurturing, creative, and open-minded when solving problems. I have cared for children of all ages from infancy to teenagers. I have recently cared for children from ages 1 to 8 years old in my recent positions. I can cook, clean, do laundry, do bedtime routines, potty train, and do anything that is needed or asked of me. I'm a pretty active person, I like to be outside playing sports and games, taking walks, or just being active and moving. I like to read, write stories, and read to kids. I'm pretty creative so I like to draw, paint, do crafts, and create things. I also like to be imaginative when playing games or doing activities with kids. I also volunteer at my church as an activity teacher so I have years of experience in creating fun hands on activities for kids in just about any situation. I have a degree in early childhood and elementary education. I am a former teacher who is taking a break from the classroom. I got my degree because I love to teach and see kids learn and grow through hands-on activities and learning through doing things. I am able to use my educator skills to teach kids at your home or prepare them for school, if desired. If you're interested please let me know and we can schedule a meeting. Thank you and have a wonderful day.

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.

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.
