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 am recently married and looking for opportunities to babysit and nanny for families in the area. I have 4 plus years of experience with children ages 3 months to 15 years old. I’ve babysat for individual children as well as larger families and groups of children from multiple families. I’m open to both consistent nannying opportunities as well as babysitting when needed. Aside from my babysitting experience, I have a bachelor’s degree in Christian Ministry with a minor in Psychology from Grand Canyon University. During my time there, I interned and volunteered in the children’s ministry at my church where I served in a classroom setting with all age groups, as well as behind the scenes with the curriculum and other administrative aspects. I am organized and reliable with a strong attention to detail, and I would love the opportunity to serve your family by caring for your children.
