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 began watching children at a young age by being a big sister, caring for family members, and eventually family friends children as well. At 18 years old I began my professional career as a nanny. I have a background in early childhood education, and have also gone to school briefly for psychology. I have background nannying in a Montessori household, as well as other households with different beliefs. My extensive childcare experiences, as well as educational background, I can successfully take care of your children and manage a household. As a productive and vibrant person, I have worked with many young children and enjoyed engaging them in imaginative, and outdoor activities. I have a history of arranging fun engaging activities, and overseeing the children's development. Additionally, I am able to provide care throughout the day including educational play, meal preparation, light housekeeping duties, trips to the park or library, and other activities that may encourage development. I am comfortable playing with the children, reading books, and having primary focus on them. I am a non-smoker, physically fit, I am a very hard worker, and am able to maintain confidentiality. My employers would note me as a calm, resourceful, and impactful nanny who is able to take charge and make decisions based on the guidelines of parents. My childcare skills, with my upbeat attitude and friendly nature, will help me succeed in any nanny role. I would love the opportunity to work with you and your family. Thanks so much for your time. -Alyssa
