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.

Ms. Gregoria cared my 4 years old son and 1 year old daughter. Unfortunately, we had to move from Sugar Land and say good bye to her, which is very sad to us. She is very reliable, responsible, and experienced (she raised 3 sons!).

Stephanie has cared for our son for 6 months and is now part of our family. My son is 1 years old now. She loves to play and entertain him as well as meal preparation. She is also great with him when he was teething and fussy. She has always been on time and will come on short notice. We are moving this summer and are truly going to miss her. I completely recommend Stephanie to watch your children.
