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 am more than happy to provide a resume and connect you with families I have worked with in the past before scheduling to meet. I prefer to have an over the phone meeting first and then meet in a public setting before coming to your home. I look forward to talking and meeting you! Thank you :)

$19–23/hr

Hello! My name is Kaitlin, and I am a caring, patient, and dependable mother with a passion for nurturing children in a safe, loving, and engaging environment. I am the mother of a 12-month-old daughter, who would need to accompany me while providing care. I strongly believe in encouraging learning and development through reading, singing, play, outdoor activities, and meaningful interaction. I have extensive experience caring for children, including helping raise my younger brother after my family adopted him. Due to severe neglect early in life, he struggled with changes in routine and environment, which taught me patience, consistency, empathy, and the importance of creating a stable and supportive atmosphere for children with unique needs. While I do not currently hold a college degree, I am a full-time online student at Middle Georgia State University pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Health Science and maintaining a 4.0 GPA. My studies have strengthened my understanding of child development, health, and overall well-being. I am CPR and First Aid certified and am comfortable providing attentive infant care, including feeding, diapering, naps, maintaining routines, and supporting developmental milestones. I am also experienced with animals, as I currently own two dogs and one cat, and I am comfortable caring for children in homes with pets. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and hands-on, and I would love the opportunity to provide nurturing care while supporting your child’s growth, learning, and daily routine. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to speaking with you.
