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. Babysitters and nannies have the option to complete regular background checks, and you can easily request a recent background check if they don’t have one or it is not recent. Families can also request to see professional references! Our dedicated team also champions safety across our platform every day. Child care providers go through an identity verification process Berbix when registering an account. Some additional safety measures include Family Watchdog screening, babysitter and nanny reviews, and secure messaging.

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.

Q: How does a child care provider interact with my child?

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.

Myka is great with our toddler. She plays with him, calms him when he's upset, and he listens to her very well. We have really enjoyed working with her.

Hello! My name is Adelyne Buchholz, or Addy for short! I am 24 years old and in school for Medical Coding. It's been so fun but I'd love to add some extra fun into my life by babysitting or nannying your kids! I come from a large family so I am familiar with kids of all ages, besides that I've worked at a summer camp in 2022 and 2023, and I've been working in daycare off and on this past school year! I am a cheerful, responsible, and highly attentive person (so if your child likes to talk, I would most definitely love to listen!) Something super important to me when with kids and, honestly, anyone, is that they feel valued, seen, and important to me. My goal would be to leave at the end of the day with their needs are met, the silly (and not so silly) questions answered to the best of my ability, and that they had the most fun possible. **I am happy to run a background check through SitterCity, however I have had background checks done with the state of Wisconsin as a Caregiver that can provide more certainty I believe**
