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.

Hi there! My name is Aurora, I’m 25 years old and originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan. I currently live and work at Big Sky Resort in Montana. I absolutely love working with kids! Most of my childcare experience comes from helping at summer camps through my church, as well as babysitting for families I know. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure kids are safe and having fun. In addition to childcare, I have professional experience with cooking and cleaning, so I’m happy to help out around the house as well.

I was a nanny for 5-6 years taking care of four kids and occasionally their two cousins. I would drive older kids to dance practice or to the store to get a video game! I also helped clean house and cook meals. I lived next door to the family so I would go over in the morning to help whenever their mother needed me. Her husband was deployed and she ran a dance studio which would require various hours she would need me to take the kids. I’m CPR/First aide certified. I am a massage therapy student at Health Works Institute in Bozeman.i have school Monday, Wednesday, and Friday 8a.m.-5 or 7 p.m. depending on the day. I have a loose schedule as to certain dates I will have late nights at school.
