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.

Child care providers on Sittercity love providing enriching experiences for your children, and sharing their passions with them.

Working with children has always been my passion, and I love helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and supportive environment. I currently work full-time as a Lead Preschool Teacher and have experience working with children of all ages, including toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children. In addition to my professional experience, I come from a large family with children ranging in age from 1 to 20 years old, which has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for and interacting with children at every stage of development. I have also worked as a babysitter and in an after-school program at an elementary school, further expanding my experience with different age groups and needs. I am currently pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education and am passionate about continuing to learn and grow as an educator and caregiver. I strive to create engaging, nurturing, and educational experiences for children through play, crafts, outdoor activities, games, and hands-on learning opportunities. I am comfortable following household routines and expectations and am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, transportation, and other family needs. My goal is to provide dependable, caring support while building positive relationships with both children and parents. I look forward to the opportunity to become a trusted and valued part of your family’s support system.

I am a mature, responsible, reliable and easy-going person with excellent childcare and interpersonal skills. I love caring for children and supporting the family's daily needs. I have been a nanny for several different families over the years, and I held my most recent position from newborn to 4 years old. I enjoy helping families as much as I can, and I prefer to be an active part of the family. I am always open to doing light housework, pet care and running errands in addition to nanny duties. I have three wonderful children, and 6 grandchildren. I enjoy reading, traveling, and spending time with my family. Due my recent move from Michigan to Colorado, I am seeking further nanny work, and the opportunity to continue doing what I love.

I’m a patient, respectful, and caring person that loves working with kids and helping out. While in school, I had the opportunity to be a teachers aid for kinders and 3rd graders. I will be a certified EMT soon for the state of Ohio, which means I am CPR & BLS certified. I have experience babysitting my nephews (newborn-9yr) and I can manage with all kinds of personalities, ex. chill & high-strung (kids that have severe ADHD/ADD/anger issues). Im available weekday mornings and I create a fun, supportive, and safe environment while gaining further experience for my career!
