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.

I have worked in child care for 13 years so this is something that I have plenty of experience in. I have primarily worked with 2 year olds, but have also worked with all other age groups as well. My main focus with the children I work with is to show them the same love and affection that their parents will give as if they where home and it also makes the transition a lot easier for everyone. By me doing such a great job at work I have had outside baby sitting position that have lasted for years. Child care is something that just comes natural to me I enjoy the e children I work with and they enjoy me because they hate to see me leave and they all call me mother. I treat the children I care for like I would want someone to treat my child. So if I sound like someone that you would have to take care of your children then please feel free to contact me.
