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.

Hi there! My name is Amanda and I am currently looking for a part-time or full-time nanny position. I have 5+ years experience as a nanny in NYC and I am first aid/CPR certified for infants, children and adults. I began working for a professional couple on the UWS when the baby was just 3 weeks old until 3 years old. I was in charge of keeping her fed, nap time, baths, tummy time, reading her books, diaper changes, laundry and eventually potty training, story-time, play ground visits and getting her to pre school. I have recently relocated back home (Worcester area) and would like to get myself situated with the right family!
