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.

We have 4 children and came all the way from out of town and Rebekah watched out group of munchkins so we could have parents night out. She was professional, flexible, on time and the kids loved her. She cared for our wild kids and did a great job! Glad we found her!

Hello, I am a Retired Early Childhood Early Intervention Teacher who has enjoyed being a nanny for 15 yrs. Resume' with references furnished upon interview only due to scammers.. I also have two early childhood degrees and twenty years experience as an early interventionist. As all of my training is in early childhood, I do not wish to tutor older children. I have concentrated on infants and toddlers. I've worked for many doctors and nurses who can tell you that I am active and strong. I love strolling on sunny days and fostering a love of books and music with all of my precious babies. Also available for consults. Thanks for reading! Monique T.

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!

Hello! I’m a dependable mom with over 15 years of experience caretaking. I recently moved back to the area to help support my aging parents and am looking for a regular, reliable childcare position close to home on the days I’m available to help supplement my family’s income. I have experience working with children of all abilities, including extensive experience with those with special needs. Teaching is mostly my background- I’ve taught at Elementary schools, Primrose schools as Pre-K lead and autism centers. I truly enjoy creating a safe, nurturing environment for children. It’s my life:) I am currently starting back to go to school myself to also get my BA in psychology to be more qualified to do social work! As a mom and animal lover, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your children. I look forward to helping keep your little ones safe, happy, and well cared for. 😊
