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 am a graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Hospitality and Tourism Management. I have always considered myself a self starter, and enjoy using my degree in a variety of ways. While in college, I was a housekeeper at a hotel, a server at a restaurant and an event planner. With experience in all avenues of hospitality, and being a travel agent for the last four years, my love of hospitality and human interaction have proven to be at the forefront. I enjoy the outdoors, music and creativity. My Pinterest boards are always filled with craft ideas or inspiration for children’s activities. I am the kind of person who enjoys working one-on-one with children and am that person who finds myself surrounded by the children playing games at family reunions. I have cared for two girls for the past four years, both whom are now four and ten. Both grew so much and reached so many milestones while I was with them. I was involved in sleep training, teaching how to walk, prepping and introducing the baby to solid foods, and helping assist with potty training. I recently was an au pair in Spain for a one-year- old and three-year-old. They helped me learn Spanish and in turn became like family. My highschool years were spent as a lifeguard and children’s swim instructor and coach. I enjoy being active and nurturing growth and development. I have my CPR certification, my own vehicle with clean driving record and am comfortable doing light housekeeping duties around the house. Basically, my goal is to make your life easier. I would love to chat about becoming an essential part of your family! Please let me know if I would be a good fit.
