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.

Last-minute, school and tutoring, date nights—find the right babysitters for you.

I'm a 53 year old mom of 2 grown daughters 19 and 21, both in college and miss the days when my girls were little. They were the best days of my life! I am a big crafter. I quilt, bead, scrapbook, anything creative. I'm very relaxed around kids and love to find ways to make them feel good about themselves but not afraid to discipline them, but never in a shaming way. Love to help with homework or baking something fun and know how important reading and talking to children is! Kids seem to like me because I'm really interested in what and how they think. I've been married for 24 years, used to be a professional vocalist and now would love to spend some time and love with children.

Suzanne was a wonderful babysitter. She was patient with our 1 year old, who is very attached to her dad and I. She was also very good with our 11 year old. They watched movies, made cookies and played games that he liked. Our son is still reading the 'mad libs' that they completed together. She sent updates and pictures of the kiddos, which put my mind at ease with the little one, since she is not used to being away from us. I would definitely ask her to baby-sit again.

My first job working in childcare was when I was 16 years old. I cared for a six-month-old baby girl whom I adored. In college, I took Child Psychology, Human Growth & Development, and Special Education in the Classroom. Throughout the years, I have cared for children of all ages. I am fun, loving, responsible, punctual, have reliable transportation and an excellent driving record. I am First Aid and CPR certified and have received the most recent Covid booster. I have years of experience with pets if you have any. To add to all of that, I am Trustline registered, which means a full DOJ and FBI background check, which I'm happy to share. I look forward to hearing from you about your child or children's needs.

My husband and I have limited babysitter options and are very selective about who we trust to care for our son. Our 2-year-old is currently nonverbal, so finding a caregiver who is patient, nurturing, and intentional about communication is incredibly important to us. Linneth was wonderful with our son. From the moment she arrived, she engaged with him in a warm and caring way. What stood out most was how consistently she narrated throughout the day. She talked to him during play, during meals, and throughout everyday activities. As parents of a child with a speech and language delay, we know how valuable language exposure is, and it meant so much to see someone naturally incorporating it into every interaction. She kept him engaged with play and meaningful activities while creating a calm and positive environment. It was clear that she genuinely enjoys pouring into children and helping them learn, grow, and feel valued. Her interactions were intentional, patient, and full of warmth. My husband works from home, so he had the opportunity to observe many of their interactions throughout the day. He consistently commented on how engaged Linneth was with our son and how naturally she incorporated language and learning into their time together. Linneth is dependable, caring, and attentive. She made us feel completely comfortable leaving our son in her care, and we appreciated the thoughtful way she supported his development while also making sure he felt safe and loved. We are grateful to have found her and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a nurturing and engaged caregiver.

Kay was fantastic!!! She arrived on time, with two bags of toys. We hired Kay to help keep the little kids (ages 4,3, and 2) occupied at our wedding reception. The kids loved her and the parents were all able to enjoy the evening. I would highly recommend Kay. She is very lovely and great with kids!

Warm, experienced and calm with a knack of intuitively knowing how to adapt. I feel that it is such a privilege to take care of children as each person has a lesson to teach. Patient and kind with over a decade taking care of children and 3 years of taking care of seniors. Experienced with multiples. Most of my experience as a nanny has been within the 6 month to 12-year-old age group but I have also worked with newborns ( 6 years with one family from newborn to 6 years of age!!). It is important to me to be a source of stability and support for your child while you are at work. Communication is vital!. Recognizing that each child learns differently is important to understanding a child's individual needs. CPR/FIRST AIDE Certified, clean background check, clean DMV with solid references and job history. Trustline certified. I have also worked as a house cleaner, home organizer, personal assistant and am happy to help you with any of your domestic needs during down time. I look forward to finding the next symbiotic fit with a wonderful family! I am very flexible with days and hours. YOU and your family are my number one priority! Looking forward to hearing from you..
