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 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!

I started working in early childhood education a year ago and immediately loved working with the kids. I started with teaching 2-3 year olds and am currently working in an infant room. I have experience with all ages up to 12. I’ve just recently earned a CDA credential for preschoolers. I like to take a more fun approach to learning with kids and prefer to teach through music, movement, art, and play. I find that children learn the best when they’re having fun!
