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.

Q: How do nannies interact with my child?

Nannies on Sittercity love providing enriching experiences for your children, and sharing their passions with them. They're happy to participate in outdoor activities like sports, or indoor activities like music, baking, tutoring help, and art. Wherever your child's interests lie, nannies on Sittercity can engage them in a nurturing way.

Hi! I’m Rylee, and I’ve always loved working with kids, and childcare has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. I come from a big family with five younger siblings, including a toddler who just turned three, so I’ve grown up helping with little ones every day. From ages 12–16, I regularly babysat for friends, families in my community, and at church events, which helped me build patience, responsibility, and strong communication skills. I later worked at my local YMCA daycare, where I gained hands-on experience with groups of children, daily routines, and fun, age-appropriate activities. When I turned 18, I also worked as a live-in nanny for a year. I know basic baby sign language and enjoy using it to help babies communicate their needs before they can talk. I’m reliable, calm, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, positive environment for children of all ages. I also was CPR certified but it expired

Hi, my name is Tresha, and most people call me “Ash.” I am a caring and dependable mother of two wonderful boys, ages 8 and 9, who were born in the same year. I have extensive experience caring for children from infants through 8 years old, including bathing, changing, feeding, entertaining, and keeping them safe and comfortable. I am very attentive, patient, and responsible, and I always give my best when caring for children. As a mother, I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and comfortable leaving their children in someone else’s care. I also have experience providing care and companionship for adults. In addition to childcare and adult care, I have a background in housekeeping and laundry, including keeping the home clean, organized, and comfortable. I am comfortable helping with everyday household tasks and making sure everything is well taken care of. I am originally from the Philippines and have lived in the United States for almost 11 years, where I have built my own family. I take pride in being trustworthy, hardworking, compassionate, attentive, and dedicated to providing the best care possible.
