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 there, I have an early childhood degree, 4 boys of my own (16+), I’ve started working with kids when I was nine years old as a mother’s helper….. I have since worked in two different home daycare’s, and I had my own for two years, and I currently work at a daycare center at Little kids Inc. since 2015. I also worked at a pediatric office for nine years and have my CNA certification…… as my boys are getting older. I’m just looking for more flexibility in my schedule and not having to have a full classroom anymore…. I love all children, but especially infants and young toddlers! I enjoy it very much! I am very social and outgoing, and don’t mind taking the kids to activities or to the beach etc. I am oriented with dogs because I’ve always had one myself etc

Hi I'm Halle! I am currently living in Folsom, looking to help families around the Folsom area. I have experience babysitting/nannying children ages 6mo-10 years old and have experience teaching dance/ managing classes to children ages 2-14. My most recent long term position was for a 6-month-old and I was with that family until the baby was a year old, so I have recent infant experience, and truly love caring for this age group! I also have recent experience with multiples: 8-month-old twins, date nights for a 5, 7, and 10-year-old, and the toddler and infant duo. I am dependable, nurturing, and flexible and would love to find families looking for these qualities. I am super creative and love helping with school work, going on walks/being in nature, arts and crafts, baking and anything active! Would love to see if we could be a good fit!
