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.

Maureen was absolutely wonderful with our 2-3 year old, reliable and consistent for a regular sitting position over several months. Our daughter LOVES her, and so do we. We would hire her again in a heartbeat.

Hi! My name is Sara Coughlin and I am a full time college student from western mass! I am 21 years old and I graduated class of 2021 from my local high school, and am in university but am home for the summers. I have always been good with and genuinely loved being with kids, and have babysat and helped with kids of all ages since I was younger helping out in Child Watch at the YMCA. I have been certified for babysitting by the American Red Cross for years. I love kids as I have always had little cousins and work with kids a lot, I love animals, and helping people, and am very outgoing, caring, and adventurous, which is why babysitting is such a perfect fit for me for a part time job whenever I can! I have been a kids camp unit director and counselor in the summers and it is the best part of my summer days, I couldn’t this summer due to minor scheduling conflicts but will miss it so much this summer! I have experience and love working with any ages. I have experience with casual sitting, date nights, bedtime routines, wedding sitter/help, and much more and I love it all! Please reach out I’m happy to discuss and see if I can help in any way!

Deanna worked with our family for nearly six years, beginning when our two children were just one and two years old. From the very start, she was a devoted mother’s helper who truly loved and cared for our children through their earliest and most formative years. She consistently demonstrated kindness, patience, and thoughtfulness in everything she did. Deanna was exceptionally reliable, flexible, and deeply dedicated to our family. Whenever we needed extra support—whether due to illness, unexpected circumstances, or schedule changes—she was always there for us. Her willingness to step in and help during challenging times meant more to us than we can fully express. She safely drove our children, cared for them when they were sick, and was an incredible source of stability and support throughout the COVID period and beyond. Deanna consistently went above and beyond her core responsibilities—preparing meals, helping with laundry and sorting clothes, unpacking school and activity bags, and keeping our home organized and running smoothly. Deanna also played a significant role in our children’s development. She mentored them with homework, reinforced good manners and responsibility, and worked closely with us to work through behavioral challenges with care, patience, and consistency. She regularly took them on outings and found thoughtful ways to engage them emotionally, socially, and intellectually. In addition, Deanna was a tremendous logistical support for our family. She helped arrange and plan for vacations, prepared the children for travel, and managed busy schedules with ease, always anticipating what needed to be done. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Deanna as part of our family for so many years. She made a lasting impact on our children and our household as a whole. We recommend Deanna without hesitation and with the highest confidence—any family would be truly lucky to have her.
