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.

Last-minute, school and tutoring, date nights—find the right babysitters for you.

I love babysitting for various reasons! My first sitting job was with my baby cousin and it helped me find something I love to do. Every child is different and it shows you how amazing it is to get to know them. I have baby sat my cousin, sister, and extended family! These were covid years which is why it is all family related but I have been around countless of church members children having to watch them. I’m not certified in CPR but we took multiple tests on it in my various health classes. I also understand first aid well. My graduation pathway was mostly learning first aid and child care!

Hello! I am a rock climber and outdoor lover with a background in child development. My husband and I recently moved to to Bloomington from Grand Haven, Michigan, where I was a full-time nanny for a family with three kids: ages one, three, and four. As a nanny, I developed a fantastic repertoire of age-appropriate activities and a thorough understanding kids' developmental needs. I also have experience as a challenge course specialist, and more recently had the pleasure of directing the City of Boulder's Goats and Gardens summer camp. I love interacting with kids of all ages and sharing my love for nature and adventure. I live on the south side of town and have my own vehicle.

Hello! My name is Madalynn Johnstone, and I’m originally from Rialto, California, but I grew up in the beautiful Brown County area of Nashville, Indiana. Along with my four and a half years of experience working in a small café where I specialized in preparing healthy, wholesome meals, I also have experience as a babysitter. I cared for my neighbor’s two sweet kids—a little boy and girl—along with their dog, and I often brought my younger sister along since she enjoyed spending time with them. Their mother, a town counselor, trusted me enough to recommend me for other babysitting jobs. I take pride in being dependable, patient, and attentive, and I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children.
