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.

I’m a 19 year old college student looking for families to nanny/sit for! I’ve had about 2 years of experience working with children in many different settings. I worked in 2 schools as a 5th grade teacher’s aide and as a 3k-kindergarten after school care aide. I also worked for a summer at a daycare with 3-12 year olds while nannying for a family part time! This past year I attended CUW and worked at a goldfish swim school in the area while working part time for a few families during nights and weekends. I’m now home looking for summer and future opportunities to work with children either part or full time as I transferred to fully online for my major!
