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 a Bachelor’s degree in Child Psychology and a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling, along with years of experience supporting children and families. My background has helped me bring patience, structure, emotional awareness, and calm communication into the home. Not only in my relationship with children, but also in the way I support healthy parent-child connection. I am also the mother of a 17 year old senior, and I have had the privilege of raising him as a single mother while putting myself through school and building my career. That experience has shaped me in many ways. It taught me resilience, patience, creativity, time management, and how important it is for children to have steady, loving support as they grow. I treat my Kido's like my own. I enjoy creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel supported, respected, and cared for. I love helping children explore their creativity, notice what makes them light up, and feel seen for who they are as little people with big personalities. Although my professional background is in counseling, I am currently seeking something outside of that field in this season of life. Nannying has been a meaningful part of my life on and off for the past 20 years. It keeps me connected to the joy, curiosity, and imagination children bring into the world and honestly, there is something refreshing about spending time with little humans who remind you that snacks, stories, and a good laugh can fix a lot. I would love the opportunity to connect and see how we may be a good fit for one another.

Hi there, I’m Jude. I’m a dependable and nurturing nanny with over 13 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including newborns. I am CPR and First Aid certified and previously worked as a CNA, which gives many parents extra peace of mind when it comes to safety and attentive care. I truly love working with children and creating a fun, supportive environment through activities like reading, crafts, outdoor play, and learning through everyday moments. I’m also happy to help families with light housekeeping, organization, errands, and safely driving children to school or activities (I have a valid license and reliable vehicle). I live a holistic lifestyle and have knowledge of natural wellness, which I’m happy to share with families who appreciate that approach. I’m currently available for part-time care in the area and am also open to date nights, overnight care and travel nanny opportunities if they arise.
