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.

Hello, My name is Corynne and I currently live in Alstead, NH. I am a trained nanny that has worked as a live-in nanny for almost 2 years. I am a 200 hour certified yoga teacher and a certified Reiki Master. I love teaching meditation to children and to anyone who is open to it. I am very patient, kind, and a diligent worker. In the past, I was a live-in nanny for almost 2 years caring for three children 7, 9, 11, a puppy and two cats. I am still in close contact with the family in CT. I was active daily in waking up the children, getting them dressed, preparing breakfast, and lunch with snacks for school. Drove, walked, and rode bikes to and from school. While children were at school, I would train and take care of puppy. I would also do loads of laundry, vacuum the house, prepare snacks and dinner. I would pack the boys soccer bags and the youngest ones gymnastic bag. After activities, I would drive them home to go over homework, finishing dinner and then getting them ready for bed. Whatever needed to be done, I always made sure it was done. If the dog needed to be taken to the vetinarians office, I would take him in between school time. I have always been an animal lover, just naturally great with both children and animals, which has been an asset throughout care taking. As well as caring for children, I will do house cleaning. I believe that keeping a clean environment relieves stress and clears the mind. I would also be willing to prepare any healthy organic meal for your family. I am vegan, but I do not mind cooking for others who are not. I became a caregiver because I am excellent with children and I love helping care for others. I give you my promise to care for your children and your home respectfully with love.
