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 am a current college student studying Education. I have a night time job but I am looking for a daytime job as well and since I loved babysitting while growing up from age eleven, I thought being a nanny would be fun and rewarding. I love children and have many years of experience with children of all ages. I try to have as much fun with the children as I can while maintaining a tidy environment. I have made very close connections to the families I have babysat for and expect to make more of these same connections.
