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.

Raised three great kids and volunteered a lot when I was in the military at shelters with children and went to Medical Assistant school and was CPR certified. Now work as a nanny of school aged children and helped my niece with her children until they went off to school. Completed 18 years in the military and medically retired. Wage negotiable I paid for 3 at daycare at one time in my life so I understand how that is with multiple children. I have access to military bases. I love children of all ages. I can prepare meals and also help with homework. I am pretty flexible. My kids are all on their own. I love children of all ages.

Hi my name is Ana, I grew up in Mexico from a large extended family with 7 brothers, 3 sisters and my parents. I went to the University in Sonora Mexico for my Bachelor's degree in social worker, and I worked for 5 years at elementary school with special needs children. I move to USA, and I stared to go to the college for ESL and Child development education. My first job here in USA was a nanny live out with a great family for 3 years, and later I work at USA Army base at Child development center as a program assistant for about 5 years working with children from infant, toddlers, preschool, school age, special needs, and cadets programs. Since this time I have 17 years working as a teacher and 6 years as a nanny of experience. I want to be a nanny, because I enjoy what I do working with children. My goal as a nanny is to assist the family any way possible. I offer to the children love, fun, respect, and safe enviroment with a family atmosphere. I wish to work for a family that needs a nanny that is hard working, easy going, fun, creative, confident, mature responsible, experienced, respectful, and very flexible. Thank you Ana

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy caring for children and helping them grow in a safe, fun, and loving environment. I’m a big-hearted person with a loving attitude. My most recent job was as a caregiver, where I provided daily support, companionship, and assistance with routines. I also have personal experience caring for my younger siblings, aged 5 and 6, since they were newborns, boy and girl which I love with my whole heart. Helping, teaching, and spending quality time with children has always felt natural and rewarding to me. I love baking, listening to good music, making people smile, staying positive, and encouraging others to be their best selves. I’m passionate about motivation, love going to the gym, and strive to be the best version of myself every day. I am bilingual, trained in CPR and First Aid, and have strong skills in communication, patience, and problem-solving. I’m reliable, nurturing, and able to handle challenges calmly while keeping children safe, happy, and engaged.
