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 am a 33-year-old dog mom who is so proud to be an auntie and godmother to so many amazing kiddos! My childcare experience includes lots of time spent watching them and your standard teen babysitting, as well as being a camp counselor and paid nanny in college. For the past few years I've been a field trip coordinator and guide at BSU, so I love creating fun and educational experiences! I'm also a director and performer at Muncie Civic Theatre and have trained in first aid and CPR in the past. Thank you for considering me!

I am a 20 year old Ball State student! I have worked in daycare and in babysitting for 4-5 years and I’m good with older kids and potty trained toddlers. I am a biology student so I am also good with animals and pets, so I’m happy to care for those as well. I’m also an artist, and I love to show children how creative they can be. I do not drink or smoke, and I am vaccinated. I do not yet have first aid certification but I understand the basics and simple methods and will be getting my certification soon. I cook and meal prep very often, and I have a background in house cleaning. I’m looking to work during the mornings, evenings, and nighttime while I have school in the afternoons and early evenings. I have my own car and I plan on getting CPR certification once I can afford it. If needed we can discuss my class schedules! Outside of the summer, they are scattered between 12-4PM every weekday, with some gaps.
