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 am a professional nanny and household manager with 7 years of experience working with 3 wonderful families. Throughout my career, I’ve built long-term relationships and pride myself on being dependable, organized, proactive, and attentive to each family’s unique needs. My experience includes childcare, school drop-offs and pickups, transporting children (with a clean driving record), household organization, cooking, meal planning and prep, and helping keep the day-to-day running smoothly. I especially enjoy hands-on play, crafts, creative activities, and finding fun ways to keep children engaged and learning. I genuinely love being a part of a family’s day-to-day life and creating a safe, happy, and organized environment where both children and parents feel supported. I take pride in being someone a family can trust and rely on

Hi! My name is Alicia, and I’m a college student at Western Carolina University studying Sport Management and Marketing. I’m responsible, caring, energetic, and love working with kids of all ages! I have several years of childcare experience, including nannying for the same family for the past two summers, caring for their child starting when they were around 14 months old. I’ve also babysat for many different families with children of all ages. In addition, I’ve worked with children through A Better World Charlotte, where I helped with homework, supervised activities and outdoor play, and served meals. I’ve played soccer my whole life, so I love being active and spending time outdoors. I enjoy keeping kids active and entertained through sports, games, crafts, and other fun activities rather than just sitting inside all day. I’m also very interested in nutrition and enjoy cooking and meal prepping. I’d be happy to help families with preparing meals and snacks, meal prep, and other light household tasks. I’m dependable, patient, and comfortable following each family’s routines and preferences. Most importantly, I want parents to feel comfortable knowing their kids are with someone responsible, caring, and engaged. I’d love to connect with a family looking for a reliable nanny or babysitter!
