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.

I love working with children and being able to teach them new things. I have worked with different ages for the past 22 years, and for 5 years I was a nanny/babysitter for families in California. I went to a vocational school for two years and earned my CDAE in early childhood education. I take pride in what I do and give it my all. Working with children brings a joy to my heart :)

Hey y'all! My name is Lilly and I’m 21 years old. Some things about myself, I love painting, baking, and swimming. I’m currently enrolled in college to become an art teacher for elementary school. I do classes online hence the open availability! I have 4 younger siblings, so I grew up changing diapers and babysitting. I go to a church and volunteer to take care of the children on Friday nights ages babies thru 15 years old. I used to babysit a 2 year old boy and 4 year old girl once in a while for my mom’s coworker until they moved. The reason I’m on here is because I love kids and currently unemployed due to not being able to stand on my feet for very long periods of time.

I have 15 years of child care experience, ranging from being a babysitter, to working in a gym daycare, to being a lead teacher at a preschool! I have taken the 40 hours of training & passed the competency exams required to work in a daycare. I am also certified in children's & infants first aid/CPR. I have a passion for cooking, and would be happy to work in some meal prepping, or cooking within the home. I can help with chores and cleaning as well. I have reliable transportation, am pet-friendly, and a non-smoker. I'm looking to have a set schedule full-time or part-time, and I can offer the possibility of helping with some date nights here and there! I'm a big fan of gentle parenting and Montessori teaching, but I'm happy to adapt to any house rules or personal preferences. I do have a fully vaccinated 2-year-old girl I'd be intending on bringing. She is gentle with babies, and friendly with other children. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello,I have a genuine passion in and love for children. I have been working with children for 7 years and I am preparing to pursue my Bachelor’s in Early Childhood Education. I speak English and I know a bit of ASL. I believe it’s important to introduce children to new age appropriate experiences and I find it most important to consistently promote children’s development and well being while forming a bond and developing a sense of trust with not only the child(ren) but the family as well.

Here’s A little bit about me: I started my first babysitting jobs at the age of 15. I then started teaching dance at Heather Loveland Dance Academy, The Dance Connection, and St Augustine Dance Academy. I have always had a passion for helping kids and their creative development. I have tried multiple different jobs and nothing quite fulfills me as nannying does. It makes me happy and I can’t see my life without children. I have over 6 years of customer service background as I started working for Publix at the age of 14, and I have about 4 1/2 years in childcare getting paid. My goal is to provide a nurturing and learning environment for children. I love watching kids grow and seeing them develop. On my off days I enjoy going to the beach and going to Disney. I am willing to work weekends and weekdays outside my current availability accommodating certain families needs. I am also willing to do overnights and travel for the extra set of hands! I look forward to hearing from you all 😊
