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! I'm Aniston, an energetic babysitter with 2 years of experience caring for children ages 5-12. My absolute favorite part about babysitting is getting creative with the kids. I love keeping the kids engaged, active, and away from screens. I'm also highly organized and always make sure we clean up the glitter and paint together when we're done! When I'm not babysitting, I focus heavily on my own education. I am highly involved in school and rank in the top 20 of my class. Parents appreciate that I bring that same work ethic and focus to caregiving. I love acting as a positive role model, whether I'm helping with after-school homework, prepping healthy snacks, or managing bedtime routines. I'm comfortable driving the kids around and have references available upon request!
