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.

Hi! My name is Makinsey Dennis, but I go by Kinsey. I am 21 years old. I live in Calhoun, GA and am currently enrolled in nursing school. I decided to become a babysitter back in 2018 when some family friends of my parents wanted occasional date nights alone without their kids. I offered to be their baby sitter. That then turned into after school watches for multiple families as well. I did stop baby sitting shortly after I graduated and got a full time desk job in audiology. When deciding to go back to school, I realized I could not keep working full time. Now, I do work part time, but get with me on days/times you are needing and I can let you know my availability since it does change week to week due to classes, work, current families I am sitting for, and clinicals. Every family and child is different and I love getting to know each family that I sit for. While in high school I completed a pathway in Early Childhood Education and in Healthcare. I am CPR certified, and TB tested. I am vaccinated for Covid.

I am a 37-year-old nanny with 20+ years of child care experience with children ranging from newborn through 17. I have taught First Grade and Pre-K, have been a nanny, babysat and tutored. I love children, and am extremely patient, reliable, caring and punctual. After teaching for four years, I realized how much I missed the one-on-one interaction with children. This led to the realization of what I was really supposed to be doing with my life. Becoming a nanny allows me that one-on-one, as well as enables me to utilize my degree. I love this profession and cannot imagine doing anything else! I have no children, just my husband's daughter (my bonus daughter) every other weekend, so I am available for traveling, or occasional date nights, if you would like. Also, I have an Elementary Education degree, and love reading to children and helping them learn basics to prepare them for school. I have lived in the Acworth/Kennesaw area for 12 years, so I am very familiar with local places for learning experiences and fun! I love to go and "do", whether it is going to the park, on walks, to the museum, etc. I feel that anything can lead to a learning experience!
