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.

Being around children is something I truly enjoy, it warms my heart and feels natural to me. I grew up with nine younger cousins and babysat throughout high school, giving me plenty of experience with kids of all ages. I love bonding with children, playing, and creating a fun, safe environment for them. I’m a full-time realtor, but I babysit on the side because I love spending time with kids and helping families in any way I can. My goal is to make your life easier and less stressful, whether that means entertaining the little ones, assisting with homework, or simply being a reliable extra set of hands. I also have a sweet Golden Retriever named Winston in case pet-friendliness is important to your family! I’d love to be considered to help care for your little ones.

Hello! My name is Alexee and I am passionate about supporting families through childcare and household tasks. I do have previous experience with consistent babysitting but have never been considered a “nanny”. I am recently married (!!!) and I’m a Okaloosa County native. Coming from a military family, and having Christian values I know how important it is to treat others with respect and kindness regardless of their background. I am more than happy to do a background check, provide references, and answer any questions you may have to ensure that I’d be a good fit for your family. I am CPR certified and I do have my own reliable transportation. I hope to go back to school within the next year or two studying Human Development and Family Science. Again, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for your time today!
