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 have 6+ years in child care. From infants to school-age, I have worked with all age groups in a registered child care center. I also was the director of the same child care center. After that, I started my own in-home child care. I have two sons: 9 and 4 years old. My passion is working with young children to give them the best childhood possible. I understand the guilt parents have when they can't be with their kids. I want to be that person parents can rely on to be there for their kids when they are not able. I have completed back ground checks from Missouri State Highway Patrol and the Family Care Safety Registry. I am also CPR and First Aid Certified through Red Cross. I have also completed over 30 hours of training provided by Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education pertaining to caring for children from birth through age 5.

My names Kaylynn, I love working with kids and enjoy watching over and offering my care to them. I’m recently graduated from high school and planning to attend college in the spring. I’d really love part time or full time work to save money for college in the future. In all I’m great with kids and have been babysitting family since I was small to now where I’d say I’m great with any age of kids and love inspiring their interests or helping them develop new skills, ideas, and knowledge. I’m pretty great with any minor first aid, knowing CPR, and very prominent in my own experience with facing any problems or issues that occur. I want the kids I babysit to have fun experiences and have a broader sense of the world. I’d offer help to anything that fits the parents needs.
