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.

Hello! I'm an experienced and dedicated childcare provider with more than 40 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. Over the past four decades, I have worked as a private nanny, babysitter, and ran a daycare out of my home, helping generations of children grow up in safe, nurturing, environments. I currently hold a full-time position during the week, but I'm looking to fill some of my evenings and weekends with additional babysitting, date-night care, or weekend coverage. I pride myself on being reliable, proactive, and a calm, reassuring presence for both children and parents. I look forward to speaking further if you think I'd be a good fit for your family.

I am 34, do not smoke, drink or use drugs. I love children, I have experience as a live-in nanny, housekeeper, homeschool teacher, tutor, and house manager. I read in my time off, and love to foster a love of reading and learning in children. Coming from a background that did not emphasize exercise in children, I understand the need, and try to make things fun while making sure that lots of movement is involved. I believe a nanny should be decisive and able to react quickly to changing situations. She should be knowledgeable and want to share both information and a love of learning. A nanny should be caring, compassionate and yet allow the children to set the pace for how fast to show affection. She should be willing to communicate with the parents and children, offer insights when appropriate, but respect the parent's role and not try to usurp their position. A nanny is there to support the family as a whole, not just care for the children. At this point I have no idea if I am the right nanny for your family. I know what my preferences are, but I have no idea what your family does each day, nor do I have any idea what your children are like. I would love the chance to find out if we are a good fit. While I am open to working long hours, flex schedule and 24/7, I need to have a contract that reflects the family's actual needs. I have a portfolio of resume, career networking and education and other relevant details available on request. I am available for Skype or Facetime interviews by appointment. Phone interviews are available unscheduled, as convenient to the family, between 7 am and 9 pm eastern. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I hope we can discuss how a live-in nanny could help your family.
