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.

Hi everyone! My name is April. I'm a young 54 year old nanny from southern Maryland near the Chesapeake Bay. I've been watching children since I was 13. I took CPR and first aid classes as well as college classes to run a daycare. I am patient and loving with children of all ages and have worked with children with disabilities. I have two grown daughters and a granddaughter I helped raise. I'm thinking of moving to the Asheville area near my oldest daughter and looking to see if there is an need for a nanny or au pair. I have several references available by request and I have some on my trustedhousesitters profile below. Thank you!
