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 have my bachelors' degree from Ohio University in Child Development. I have 3 children of my own. I started working with children at my church for Sunday School and a preschool teaching position came open. I worked with 3-year-olds for nine years and loved every day I went to work. Then I focused on getting my college degree finished. I have since had supervisory jobs in a school system as a Lead Latchkey teacher and for the YMCA as a site director, overseeing 2 teachers and 36 students. Currently, I'm a preschool teacher.

Hi families! My name is Ivy, and I’m a CPR-certified caregiver with experience working with children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to middle schoolers.
