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.

I’m a senior in Highschool and have a strong passion for taking care of children. I’ve had in school CPR training as well as experience with childcare in a child development course. I take online college courses through Kent State University, so I leave school at 10:45 in the morning. My schedule makes me very flexible. I recently got my license, so I am currently not completely comfortable driving with children but as time goes on and I gain experience I will be. I am skilled at cooking, cleaning, laundry, tutoring etc. My family is full of children and over the years I have gained experience with taking care of them. I am very punctual and sociable, and am susceptible to instruction and rules. If you are interested please send me a message/ request a meeting! (either in person or call!).
