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.

While I only have 1 year of professional experience, I've been entrusted with caring for family members for most of my life (the main ones being my siblings and cousins). I have plenty of interests that make it easy for me to connect with any personality! Gaming, baking (you'll love my cookies), Disney movies, dinosaurs, animals, music, you name it. I love being able to connect with everyone, despite their age. I'm patient, a great communicator, and have a love for caring for others. It's in my blood. I'm skilled in meal preparation, time management and cleaning. I also have my own car and can run errands, take the kids to parks, etc! Feel free to contact me for references or to set up a call!
