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 Kyra Kozmits and I'm currently living in Waialua, HI. I started my nanny adventures with the occasional sitting, at the age of twelve, and my responsibilities grew towards more consistent, permanent jobs over time. I knew early on I was interested in furthering my growth in helping others to care for their children, knowing this would be a fulfilling role. I am fun-loving, easy-going, adventurous, energetic, and health conscious. I acclimate well to new environments, get along well with others, can take direction, and respect the privacy of the family. I have over nine years of experience working with kids of various ages, ranging from 2-11. Through the years I have gained much experience in knowing how to care for their needs and the requests of the parents. I am always seeking ways to further educate myself through personal research, knowing there are always new ways of nurturing and training. Ready to work right away. ***CPR & AED Certified

Hi! I’m Victoria 😊 I have over 6 years of babysitting experience and currently work as a full-time nanny. Through my experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of creating structured, safe, and engaging environments for children of all ages. I’m attentive, dependable, and naturally patient, and I take pride in being someone families can fully trust with their children and home. I’m comfortable with routines, meal prep, bedtime, and helping maintain a tidy space, as well as assisting with pets if needed. I always aim to create a calm, positive environment while still making sure kids are having fun and feel supported. Alongside my current full-time role, I’m available for occasional babysitting, date nights, and additional part-time support. I maintain a flexible schedule and am happy to accommodate your family’s needs when possible. I’d love the opportunity to support your family 🤍

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy working with children and creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where they can learn, play, and feel supported. I currently work with elementary-aged children through the YMCA A+ program, where I supervise children, lead activities, assist with homework, encourage positive social interactions, and help maintain a structured and welcoming environment. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in child supervision, communication, behavior management, problem-solving, and activity planning. I am patient, dependable, and dedicated to ensuring every child feels safe, included, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind that their children are in good hands.
