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've had experience with children of all ages i have also taught and prepared children ages 2 to 5 for preschool and kindergarten. i enjoy giving young children a boost in their education i have lots of unique yet effective methods. I am fairly patient with children and lean towards a comfortable understanding of how a family would like their child to be cared for. if possible i enjoy crafts, and regular activities with the children I care for; for such things to work I would require knowledge on things we can do as I do not like going out of bounds. I am CPR, first Aid, and mandatory reporter certified and have recently had a one-year experience with the creative curriculum of teachings strategies with an infant to toddler class. My work with kids has been my career for nine years and I have enjoyed it enough to begin early childhood education degree online. it is not in my interest to drive children around places my services will be provided only in the home and it is not in my interest to handle a child with out-of-control behaviors such as hitting, kicking, throwing things, running away, or biting. if your child is prone to these behaviors I do not qualify as I feel children with these behaviors need their parents more. please feel free to contact me if you are interested in the care I provide.

Hi! I’m Morgan. I’m 22 years old and I’m looking to be a babysitter. I have babysat kids before and have been told I’m very good with kids. My patience runs high so maybe that’s it. I love to play volleyball, sing, read books. My favorite singer is P!nk. I love pets (my favorite animal is a monkey) and I have 2 cats. I have 6 years of paid babysitting experience. I also have CPR certification and know basic first aid. I am willing to do light house keeping and simple meals (I’m not much of a cook). I have my own car so if there are activities, sports, or just a trip to the park, I can do that. My availability is very flexible right now as I am currently looking for a job. I hope to hear from you soon!

Hi! My name is Isabelle, and I have several years of experience babysitting, nannying, tutoring, and teaching piano to kids of different ages. I enjoy working with children and try to create a balance of structure, safety, and fun. I have my own car and a clean driving record, so I am comfortable helping with transportation, school pickup, activities, homework, simple meals, light housekeeping, and daily routines. I also love staying active and am always up for getting kids out of the house, whether that means going to the park, golfing, playing pickleball, riding bikes, going on walks, or finding something fun to do outside. I would describe myself as dependable, patient, responsible, and easy to communicate with. My goal is always to make parents feel confident that their kids are safe, cared for, and having a good day.
