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’m currently going into my first semester of college, I’m majoring in Accounting. I have 3 years of babysitting experience. I am CPR trained and First Aid trained. Most of my experience is with babies and toddlers but I’m better with older children of the ages 3-12+! I’m skilled at household chores, meal prep, comprising, and I have my own car. I’m very patient and I love having a good connection with kids and their families! I am really good with shy kids and love to help them come out of their shell a little bit! Overall I would love to be help to any family and support any families needs.

Hi! My name is Kali, and I’m currently a student at the University of North Dakota. I have around six years of childcare experience through working as a dance instructor and in a childcare setting. Over the years, I’ve worked with children ranging from 2 years old through their teenage years, including children with disabilities and varying support needs. I’m CPR, First Aid+, and SafeSport certified, and creating a safe, positive, and comfortable environment for children is always my top priority. I love keeping kids engaged through activities, play, learning, and new experiences while making sure they feel supported and cared for. I’m also very comfortable with pets! As a pre-veterinary student with extensive hands-on animal care experience, I’ve worked with many different types of animals, so families with pets are more than welcome. I would describe myself as responsible, patient, energetic, and caring. My goal as a nanny or babysitter is to be someone both parents and children can trust while creating a fun environment where kids can learn new things, be themselves, and make great memories!
