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 loving,caring,and outgoing person.I love all kids no matter the age! I also love all animals so I can take care of your fur babies as well as your kids at the same time :) I am very responsible and will always clean up after myself and do what is asked of me to do. I grew up taking care of younger family members and I as well have taken a babysitting class to learn about more activities you could do with kids and how to care for them more. I can’t wait to meet you and your kids soon!

Emily was great! She showed up a little early to walk through the routine with us. Our daughter had a great time with her and loved painting with her. :)

I enjoy being a sitter because of the variety of families that need the help and the environment changes when I change as well! I've had experiences taking care of children because I myself have 4 younger siblings so that helps with the experience but I love being around children It's the best thing in the world. All children are a bundle of joy and fun so if anything I hope I can be of help to people and take some of the pressure off of you as a parent.
