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.

Hey there 👋🏻 My name is Kara and I’d like to tell you a bit about myself. I have always enjoyed children my whole life. Ever since I was little I always wanted to be around the kids. Just seeing how happy and free they are made me happy. I have two younger siblings as well so I was always helping my single mom out with them. Once I got into high school I knew that working with children is what I really wanted to do in life. I moved to Massachusetts with my dad the summer before my senior year of high school, and found the perfect job for myself. I started working as an assistant teacher at the daycare right across the street! They were great about working with my school schedule and excepting me knowing I had no profession experience. I worked as an assistant toddler teacher. We had 19 two year olds between myself and three other teachers. I loved every day I worked here at Kindercare. I was very saddened when I moved back to New Hampshire a year and a half later and has to resign. I worked for a few family’s over the first couple of years I was back. I also care for my two nephews and niece on a regular basis. For the past 5 years I decided to switch my career over to in home health care, since I have always loved helping and caring for people and found myself a great opportunity. However, for a few reasons I have decided to make my way back into child care, so here I am! If you have any questions or inquiries please feel free to send me a message. I look forward to hearing from you!
