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 do nannies interact with my child?

Nannies 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. Wherever your child's interests lie, nannies on Sittercity can engage them in a nurturing way.

Hello there! My names Monique and I absolutely love children. It has been something I've been passionate about ever since I was 14, yes that's pretty young but I've always enjoyed playing with my little cousins and teaching them new things. I was a helper in a preschool, I've done lots of volunteer work at day cares, and I help at a children retreat once a year. I've been watching kids for about 15 years now, from babysitting jobs to watching my own cousins. I do have some medical experience. Working with children and watching them grow is such a rewarding experience.

I love being a babysitter because I really enjoy working with kids and being someone families can trust. I’ve been babysitting for about 5 years and have experience with children of different ages, helping with things like meals, playtime, homework, and bedtime routines. I’m very responsible, have strong cleaning and organizing skills, and always make sure the home stays safe and tidy. I’m patient, dependable, and good at keeping kids engaged while also following routines and making sure parents feel comfortable leaving their children with me.
