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.

Caring for children has been a consistent part of both my life and career. I began my caregiving career in San Diego County before relocating to Yuma while working on the Army base. After spending time in Coronado following a promotion, I have since returned to Yuma and look forward to serving families in this community again. I genuinely enjoy working with children of all ages and abilities, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone's child very seriously. My goal is always to provide a safe, dependable, patient, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident. I bring over 8 years of hands-on experience working with children and families throughout San Diego County and the Yuma area. My background includes working as an in-home nanny and private caregiver for families with infants, toddlers, and school-age children. I have experience caring for both typically developing children and those with diverse needs. My professional background as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) provided me with a strong medical and caregiving foundation. I also worked as a Direct Support Professional in both a school and group home setting serving children and adults with diverse needs, where I gained valuable experience in behavioral support, daily living assistance, and compassionate care. I remain calm under pressure, communicate well with families, and understand the importance of reliability and trust in childcare. I also have previous CPR and First Aid training and am willing to renew certifications if requested. When you invite me into your home, you are getting more than a babysitter. You are getting an experienced caregiver who genuinely cares about the wellbeing and safety of the families she works with.
