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.

With over 30 years of experience in private child care, I am a highly skilled and dedicated babysitter with a passion for working with children of all ages. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of caring for a wide range of children with varying needs, including those with health and dietary requirements as well as behavioral challenges. My extensive experience has equipped me with the knowledge and expertise necessary to provide exceptional care and support to families. I have a deep love for art and crafts, and I enjoy engaging children in creative activities that stimulate their imagination and foster their artistic abilities. I believe that art is not only a fun and enjoyable activity but also a valuable tool for promoting self-expression and creativity in children. I believe that exposing children to the wonders of the natural world and encouraging their curiosity about the world around them is essential for their intellectual and emotional development. I strive to create opportunities for children to learn and grow in a hands-on and engaging way. One of the reasons I love being a babysitter is the sense of fulfillment I get from being able to help families in need of extra support. I understand the challenges and demands of parenting, and I am committed to providing reliable and compassionate care to children and families who require assistance. Whether it's helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, or providing emotional support, I am dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive and flourish. I am committed to providing exceptional care and support to children of all ages, and I take great pride in being able to make a positive impact on the lives of the families I work with. Thank you for considering me as your babysitter, and I look forward to the opportunity to support and care for your children.
