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.

Heather….what can I say? Best sitter we’ve ever had from SitterCity….wait, no, best sitter ever?! YES: most definitely. Besides my mother, who is kin, Heather was truly the dream experience we hoped for on our trip to Maui, HI. We were working anywhere from 3 to 8 hrs. a day - we had multiple locations we needed help with along the island, based in Kīhei, but then Makawao and also Wailuku. She was not based exactly in these areas, which meant extra travel for her with a very reasonable fee, but she was spectacular - six stars are in order. Never came late, was flexible with end times (but don’t abuse that, and be kind because she is very worth it). Was cool with our kid while also being positive about making sure that he didn’t disrespect her and creating limits - that only comes with experience. I can’t say enough, but I will also add, our son came with a recent health condition (spider bite) that got way out of hand infected on the plane and she was totally professional and did not balk for a minute in helping us with his health needs - cool as a cucumber and yet really attentive to our instructions of what needed to be done (shout out to Minit Medical Urgent Care in Kihei too, just in case). Not only did she engage with our kid in beautiful ways while at our home base, she managed to keep him engaged and attentive on site at the concerts we played in (we’re musicians). She’s a pro, and a wonderful person; hire her now!

Hi! My name is Sydney. I recently moved back home to Minnesota after 5 years of exploring the Hawaiian islands while nannying full time. I have been nannying and babysitting for over 10 years and have a strong passion for teaching and caring for children. I was a daycare teacher for infants and toddlers up until my move to Hawaii, so I have a lot of experience caring for multiple children at once (as well as multitasking). I am a very reliable, trustworthy and organized person and I do not mind taking on other household tasks like cleaning, laundry, driving kids to activities or even errands. I have a sweet golden retriever mix and years of experience with caring for and fostering animals, so pets are not an issue at all for me. My favorite part of childcare is watching children grow and learn every single day. I still keep in touch with many of the families I have nannied for and getting updates from them always makes my day. Since I have worked with so many different families in the past 5 years I come with wonderful references that I would be happy to provide upon request. I am CPR and first aid certified and I have plenty of experience caring for infants as well as children with special needs. I have a very flexible schedule and am happy to answer any questions you may have for me.
