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 Im Ulani and I am a compassionate, loving go with the flow young woman who absolutely adores children and discovering their likes and dislikes and their unique personalities. I believe that a child should be themselves with a babysitter and shouldn’t hide who they are. I love creating bonds with not only the children but the parents too. If you’d like to have a phone interview I would love to do so. I will also share my previous work history as a nanny.

Currently, I have about 5+ years nanny experience, working with kids in age ranges from newborn to 13 years old. I haven’t nannied in a while, as I just moved to Tennessee about four months ago, but I would love to start again! I absolutely love kids, and started because of it. Right now, I am working as a tanning consultant for a company called palm beach tan, and while I love my job, I miss being able to connect with children the way it used to. I am not CPR certified, but I am usually pretty good in emergency situations, as I’ve had much experience with them. My grandma is a nurse so I grew up being shown how to take care of wounds and things like that!
