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 used Sittercity for the first time and was honestly super hesitant about booking someone, but I’m so glad I found Jennifer! From the moment my daughter saw her, she seemed to pick up on Jennifer’s energy right away and was happy and comfortable with her the entire time. That gave me such peace of mind, especially since this was my first time using the app. This was also a very last-minute request, but Jennifer was available, responded to my initial message so quickly, and was incredibly responsive anytime I had a question. She was so sweet, attentive, and great with my daughter. Honestly, I’m almost glad my original babysitter fell through because it led me to Jennifer! She is definitely someone I will be booking again in the future. I highly recommend her!

Hi, I'm Jéssica. I'm an honest, caring, and responsible caregiver with over 10 years of experience. For the past five years, I've focused on infant care - supporting little ones from 5 weeks to 15 months - and I also have extensive experience caring for toddlers and children up to 10 years old. I truly love being part of a child's growth. Learning with them, adapting to their unique rhythm, and supporting each stage of development is something that brings me joy. With toddlers and older kids, I enjoy encouraging independence, helping with learning, guiding routines, and creating fun activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, and age appropriate teaching. I'm also happy to help with potty training and can introduce your child to Portuguese if you'd like. I'd be happy to talk more, understand your child's needs, and share references.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Jessica with our family for 1.5 years. From day one, she brought structure, warmth, and expertise to our home. She established a consistent sleep schedule that made a huge difference for our baby and guided us through introducing solids with patience and knowledge. Jessica was wonderful at encouraging developmental milestones—she created activities that supported crawling, standing, and eventually walking, always celebrating each step along the way. Her ability to incorporate multiple languages into daily interactions was a huge bonus, giving our child early exposure in a fun, natural way. Jessica also led the potty-training process with calm confidence, making it far smoother than we ever expected. Most importantly, Jessica is exceptionally attentive, nurturing, and genuinely loving. She always put our child’s safety, comfort, and happiness first and quickly became a trusted part of our family. We wholeheartedly recommend Jessica to any family looking for a dependable, experienced, and truly caring nanny.

Kafesha (Kay) is a natural: she has great instincts, is warm, and builds strong bonds with children. She's also highly professional, respectful, and comfortable with work-from-home parents. For the last six months, she's spent a few mornings a week with my 1 year old (and occasionally my 4 year old - who frequently asks to stay home from day care so he can play with Kay, too). My priority was someone who would actively engage with the baby and Kay does that and more. She's always down on the floor, playing, singing, talking with him, or out on walks. Kay takes initiative: she'll ask about his sleep and what he ate, and will give me updates before she leaves. The baby has definitely grown and blossomed under her care. Our family needs have changed, but Kay will stay on our short-list (and she will share my contact info if anyone would like to discuss further).

Clorinda was wonderful with our family. She helped care for our baby before he started daycare, and we always felt very comfortable with her. She's warm, kind, and has a calm way about her that made everything feel easy. Our little boy was always happy and relaxed with her, and we really appreciated how dependable she was.

Aarin was fantastic! She had a really calming presence with my daughter and seemed caring but professional. When I got home the house was tidier than I left it and my daughter was all smiles.

Wonderful sitter! This was literally first time using a sitter and I couldn’t be more pleased in the good hands of Jenna. Our 19 month son loved her immediately. She was engaged, caring, careful about allergies, fully alert and attentive, and incredibly sweet. Will be using her so much in future. Highly recommend!
