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.

I've been caring for kids for over 30 years, my own and for others. I'm a CNA as well, and an experienced caregiver. When people hire me, they can trust that their children will not just be cared for, but cared about. Children need more than just someone to watch them. They need someone that will engage with them, listen to them, and make sure they feel safe and cared about.

I absolutely LOVE working with children!!! I used to work at a daycare full-time, and I worked for a wonderful family last year for almost 6 months watching there 2 boys 3 days a week minimum until they moved to a different city. Otherwise, I would still be working for them, because the family really liked me and still does, and the boys both loved me, especially the 3 year old, seeing as he still talks about me almost a year later. I have a letter of recommendation, in which, the wife wrote for me. I have experience working with infants, as well as potty training. The mom of the two boys would speak well of me potty training her oldest son, seeing as the other boy was almost a year old when my time with them ended. Therefore, he was still in diapers when I left, but she would love it if I were able to be there to potty train him too, when he is old enough. I would love to be a part of your family, if it's a good fit for all of us, because I want your family to have the proper caretaker working with your child/children that best fits their needs, seeing as that is what I would be there for. I also enjoy cooking and cleaning, and cleaning up before I leave is a non-negotiable, because I like my work area to be clean, as well as neat and tidy, especially when the job is complete for the day. I want you to come home to a clean environment as well.

I just graduated at UW Oshkosh, my major is elementary education so finding a family to help out would be perfect to add to my experiences. I just moved to Janesville so it is a new area where I would love to get to know other people. I grew up with younger siblings and a big family so I grew up babysitting. I have been babysitting other families for about 3 years. I have worked in a 5th grade classroom and a kindergarten classroom, I have also tutored 3rd graders in literacy. i did my student teaching in. 2nd grade classroom, which was over 40 hours a week with children. I have a CPR certificate, as well. I am also good with animals. I can also provide my transcript, reference letters, and my resume.

My mom used to do in home daycare, and I would help her and that started when I was 11. When I was older I would go to their houses and watch the kids. I have pets, so pets are not a problem. I have a reliable car. I would love it if you would consider me for babysitting. I love children.
