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 Aubreann Pfaff, and I’m a nurturing and dependable caregiver with a true passion for working with children of all ages. I’m 22 years old and recently graduated from Heartland Community College with a degree in Arts. I’m currently on the path toward a nursing career—driven by my love for caring for others. As the second oldest of seven kids, I grew up in a busy household where helping with childcare came naturally. I bring that same energy, patience, and attentiveness into every home I work in. I also love to cook and enjoy preparing meals and snacks! I’m comfortable with pets of all breeds and sizes, have a reliable car with a clean driving record, and am happy to help with school drop-offs and pick-ups, errands, and light housekeeping. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for the children I care for while making life a little easier for busy parents. I’d love the opportunity to support your family with warmth, responsibility, and a smile!

Hello, I am an experienced babysitter with a genuine passion for caring for children. My journey in childcare began early, as I assisted in raising my younger siblings, which instilled in me a strong sense of responsibility. In addition to childcare, I am adept at managing household tasks, ensuring a clean and organized environment. I create a safe and engaging space that combines fun and educational activities to provide children with both entertainment and learning opportunities. I am also reliable and have a car, which allows me to handle school pickups and drop-offs as needed. My schedule is flexible, as I am working from home as a part-time realtor, which enables me to accommodate various needs. I am pleased to provide references from satisfied parents.
