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 have been caring for children since the age of 12. Though I have been professionally caring for kids for the last 10 years as a private nanny. I have experience with kids between the ages of 2 months and 6 years old. I love being of service and adore caring for others. I am currently in school studying early childhood education and find so much joy applying that knowledge to my job as a caretaker. While I do dedicate an allocated amount of time on schooling, I am available to work full time and have easily found balance in that.
