Q: What’s the difference between a babysitter and a nanny?

Babysitters and nannies share the same primary responsibility of providing safe and enriching care for your child, but there are a few differences between them. Babysitters are typically hired for occasional work on an irregular schedule. If you’re looking for last-minute care for date night, or the occasional few hours after school, a babysitter is a great option. Nannies, on the other hand, 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. 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 babysitters interact with my child?

Babysitters 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, babysitters on Sittercity are prepared to engage them in a nurturing way.

Ms. Jay has been with us since February 2019, and we hope to have her for a very long time. She has been the best nanny we have ever had. She is dependable, punctual, and very caring for our children. We have two children, 6 months and almost 4 years old. My older daughter asks for her when I am here. She loves her dearly. In the time that she has been with us, she has started to teach our children Spanish. My daughter knows a few words and her numbers in Spanish. She also goes over my daughters preschool workbooks to help her with writing and words. Not only does she care for our children, but she is always helping around the house. When I come home from work, it is way less stress. She works with us part time.

I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping kids grow, explore, and have fun in a safe, supportive environment. I’ve been caring for children of all backgrounds and differences for over 15 years. I love supporting each child’s growth, learning, and happiness, whether it’s through schoolwork, activities, or just being there to listen and guide them.Certified in CPR & First Aid and cleared with a Level 2 background check. I create safe, fun, and enriching experiences for kids of all backgrounds and abilities, including those with behavioral or developmental challenges.

Felicia is truly a gem! She has a natural gift for caring for children of all ages — from energetic toddlers to independent pre-teens. What impressed me most is how she manages multiple kids at once while still giving each child her full attention. She’s creative with activities, calm under pressure, and always makes sure the kids feel safe, happy, and heard. As a parent, I love that I can leave the house knowing everything will be handled with care and confidence. My kids light up when they know Felicia is coming over — that says it all! If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and genuinely invested in your children’s well-being, Felicia is the sitter you want. She’s one of a kind!

I have also been a TA for a middle school class as well. I have my CPR certification for all ages and this includes water related rescuing as well. I clean efficiently and every kid that i’ve watched has loved the food that i’ve cooked. I’m a well liked and well respected sitter and would love to help you!

I am currently a CNA working with the elderly and I truly love caring for people and I’ve had little experience professionally babysitting but I have 4 younger siblings that I love being around, caring for and spending time with. I had an active CPR certification but I have not renewed as it was not needed at my facility but I will gladly renew if needed.
