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 21 years old and have had 8 years experience in babysitting and I love being around kids. I have a car and can drive the kids around as well. I am CPR + First Aid certified, I normally work with kids 2-12 years old but also have experience with infants. I am God centered and would love to be in a home where I can tell kids about Christ and share my love of God. I am a very creative person as well. I love to sew, crochet, bake, and paint. If your children show an interest I would enjoy teaching them crafts and getting them creative. I love a clean home and home cooked meals so I can get chores done while kids nap/ play and can cook meals and bake for them. I am very passionate about leading kids to be responsible, kind, and loving. I believe this is possible only in Gods love, which is why I think a Christian home would be a great fit. I would love to read them books and play board games and overall spend time with them. I can also help get homework done. I would love to get to know your family better and please reach out if you think I’d be a good fit in your home.
